About Me

I am a teacher and tutor with more than 30 years of experience. I have a Masters Degree from Arkansas State University in Mathematics and tutor grades 7 to College. For 5 years, I have worked with students grades 8 to 10 at John Hopkins Center for Talented Youth. We have live sessions where we discuss topics in Honors Algebra 2.

Tutoring Style

I am patient with anyone I work with. My goal is to help someone understand the topic at hand by going at the pace the student needs. I feel that any student can learn and be successful with Mathematics. It is my goal to help students become more confident in their mathematical abilities.

Success Story

I have worked with many students who are lost in their math class. One success story is helping an adult learner with Statistics. He had been away from school for a while. I was able to help him succeed in the course and earn an A. Also, I have worked one-on-one with a 10th grader in Honors Algebra 2. We meet weekly and discuss what she is working on. She has gained more confidence in her abilities. As a result, her test scores have gone up.

Hobbies & Interests

I enjoy knitting and reading. I prefer science fiction and fantasy books. I enjoy small knitting projects like gloves and hats, but will sometimes tackle blankets.
