Hello!  I'm Amy Tucker, owner of the Montessori Hands On Minds On Math org.  We are all about teaching high-quality, Montessori math lessons to help our students develop a strong foundation in number sense, numerical fluency, and problem solving.  We also have a lot of fun doing it!  Our experienced teachers want your child to grow and gain confidence every single day in class through meaningful, fun activities and enthusiastic teaching.  We think learning should be based on real-world interests and experiences that are engaging and challenging.  We love teaching math and want your child to love learning math! 

Our org has highly qualified teachers who love working with young children.  We are passionate about math and want your children to develop a deep understanding and love for it too!  We have taught students from preschool-age through high school in a variety of settings.  We are experienced teachers with masters degrees who have taught in public schools, homeschool hybrid and private schools, and online with Outschool.

Amy Tucker has a bachelors degree in Elementary Education and a masters degree in Library Media Science, both from Western Kentucky University.  In 2007, she became a National Board Certified Teacher as an Early Childhood Generalist.  Amy has taught with Outschool for over 4 years.  

Gina Renfro has a bachelors and masters degree in education and has taught math from the kindergarten level through high school math in both public and private schools.  She also has extensive online teaching experience. 

Laura Gadwah has a bachelors and masters degree in education and has taught both in public and private schools.  

We believe in excellence as teachers and for our learners.  We work hard to do our best and learn new things everyday.  We are big believers in teaching children how to learn, rather than just memorize, so they can learn how to find answers to their own questions.  Amy was a reluctant learner as a young child, especially with math, because she didn't understand WHY she was learning.  We always want our students to understand the reason WHY we learn new things so they can master the content and know how to apply it.  We learn together!  We look forward to meeting your child in our Outschool classrooms!
