Class Experience

US Grade 7 - 10
It doesn't take long to forget your math.  Likewise, it doesn't take much to improve math skills.  Math is like a language that should be practiced on a regular basis.  It can easily be forgotten, but if "spoken" often, math can be a skill that is retained for a lifetime.
Do you want to retain the math that you have learned?  Do you need to prepare yourself for the next math level?  Do you want to investigate certain math subjects more deeply?

I can help.  I have been teaching math and science for over 2 decades.  I would enjoy assisting you to improve your math skills.  You cannot beat this.  Math instruction from a professional math instructor for a very, very reasonable price.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Wisconsin Teaching Certificate in Mathematics
Learning is so much fun and helping others learn is a passion of mine.  

I have been teaching professionally for over 25 years.  I have been very fortunate to have taught in four different countries in public, private, and online schools.  My experience has allowed me to develop different teaching approaches, appreciate different learning styles, and acquire a portfolio of solid best practices to help you learn the subject material.

We all can learn, and we all want to learn.  Sometimes support, direction, and instruction are needed for optimal understanding.  I can provide that.  I enjoy teaching and would love to help you.

I keep learning.  Presently, I am trying to retain my French and Spanish, learn some Korean, and have gained a keen interest in learning how to code.  It keeps my mind active. 

Join me and we can learn together.  I look forward to working with you.
