US Grade 9 - 12
I will provide instruction, support, & encouragement on your student's current math topics as needed. Based on over 20 years of one-on-one tutoring, I can quickly pinpoint any gaps your student may have and can provide instruction to quickly fill the gaps based on my experience and extensive collection of resources. I have a record of building confidence and decreasing math anxiety while reinforcing current skills and supplementing classroom instruction. My background includes math education, counseling, and over 30 years of math teaching and tutoring. Striving to to decrease anxiety and build confidence in all students by meeting them where they are and progressing at a pace that is both comfortable and productive, I use a variety of resources and a targeted approach to address student questions in an open, non-judgmental setting. They will have my undivided attention with a goal of making the most progress in a short amount of time. I am able to address gaps or uncertainty in Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 or 2, Geometry and PreCalculus, and am proficient in teaching and reinforcing any of the concepts below: Linear, Quadratic, and Exponential Functions and their Graphs Rational, Radical and Polynomial Functions and their Graphs Modeling / Word Problems Surface Area / Volume of polygonal figures Surface Area / Volume of circular figures Circles Absolute Values, roots, and exponents with Integers Trigonometry and the Unit Circle Graphing Trigonometric Functions Systems of Equations Linear Inequalities Pythagorean Theorem and Properties of Right Triangles Coordinate Geometry, including Midpoints, Lines, Distance, Endpoints Laws of Exponents and Properties of Logarithms

Teacher expertise and credentials
I began my teaching career in the classroom, and had five years of classroom teaching prior to giving birth to our first son in 1994. I continued to work as a private tutor for many years as our family grew, allowing me to stay on top of current trends and advances in math education as the standards, policies, and practices changed from year to year. Through many years of one-on-one tutoring, I have developed the ability to quickly assess the gaps in a student’s mathematical learning, effectively and efficiently fill those gaps in creative ways, building confidence and self-assurance along the way as needed.
