Math success builds on itself. This is an opportunity to address questions and clear roadblocks to your gaining confidence and experiencing success in Algebra, Precalculus or Calculus. Instruction and problem solving will be guided by the student’s preferred style. The session format will be an informal assessment of prior knowledge, interactive lecture and guided practice. A graphing calculator will be helpful for exploration. A graphing calculator can be accessed online at Desmos.com. Optimal results would come from emailed topics, worksheets or review guides 24 hours in advance of your reserved session.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am passionate about both Math and Teaching, and it is now my mission to help you to master the skills that you need to fulfill your goals.
I am a National Board-certified math teacher with over 30 years of experience in the classroom. I have a master’s degree in mathematics and have taught all levels from Algebra to Calculus in a large urban school (our district was a five time finalist and national winner of the Broad Prize for Urban Education). My career highlights include:
Teaching AP Calculus for 29 years
Mentoring of student teachers
Being team leader for multiple subjects
Department chair
Honed during my 3 decades of teaching, I fully appreciate that students have different learning styles. Small group instruction allows me to adapt to your style of learning rather than you adapting to a teacher's teaching style. Math doesn't come naturally to everyone, let's focus on breaking down the challenges and helping you work at a pace and approach that best suits you.
I was born, raised and educated in Ireland.
