Teacher expertise and credentials
I am Mrs. Annetta - a math teacher for grades 5-8, Middle School, Ages 10-13
- Offering Self-Paced Middle School Math classes for students who are new to Middle School Math, Preparing to start Pre-Algebra, have just started Pre-Algebra classes, or are struggling with Pre-Algebra and want to get back to understanding the basics. 
- Helping students take the Elementary math concepts they learned in grade school and apply them to Middle School & Pre-Algebra math.
-  Helping middle school students who struggle with math, those who have math anxiety or fear, to gain more confidence in their own Mathematical abilities.

-  No gizmos, gadgets, or games -  we dig into the math.   

- Building my classes around 4 main concepts: 
           What do you do?,    How do you do it?,    Why do you do it?,     Where do you use it?

- Work with the 5 Basic Elements of Algebra:
          Translate, Calculate, Evaluate, Simplify, and Solve

-  Taught in public school for over 20 years both in the classroom and coaching students outside the classroom.
 
- Left public school teaching in 2017 and started my own Math Coaching Business.

-  I have a BS in Business Management, a minor in Technical Theater, and a Masters Degree in Education. 

-  My goal is for all students that struggle with math, to begin understanding and excelling using basic mathematical reasoning skills.

- I believe in people's natural desire to make sense out of chaos.  Therefore, I help students start with what they already know, then work to build their understanding of new concepts.

- Building a system of logic, reasoning, and understanding, combined with the student's ability to think and create, allows them to achieve and succeed in math.  
(Think, Create, Achieve, Succeed)

Fun Facts:  I live in Arizona (United States), I love to swim and dance. I enjoy arts and crafts (as long as directions are included). I am known as the question queen! 

I look forward to helping your student the classroom!
