Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I'm a former middle and high school teacher of math and English with 15 years of experience teaching both in person and online. 

I love making topics like math and writing less scary and more fun for students. I've found that algebra is less intimidating when students have a good foundation in the basics, but that sometimes worrying about "the right way" can limit understanding. Similarly, I've found that worrying about perfection can make writing harder, especially when one of the first rules is: Writing is rewriting. 

When not teaching or writing, I love reading good books, practicing martial arts, and spending time with my family which includes six cats and two ducks.
