About Amanda
I am a passionate, dedicated, kind, and empathetic educator who has devoted 15 years to supporting students on their math learning journey. Math is a subject that can sometimes have a "bad reputation" as difficult, inaccessible, and something students feel a lack of confidence in. I know because there were many times I felt that way about math growing up. I aim to encourage a math learning mindset the way several of my teachers did for me growing up. I teach using a framework of the 14 math practices outlined in "Building Thinking Classrooms" by Peter Liljedahl. This approach moves beyond traditional teaching methods and promotes active engagement and problem-solving. As a special education teacher, I also personalize my lessons to students' individual learning profiles and provide explicit, structured math instruction using a variety of tools to help scaffold students' current knowledge so that they can develop more complex math skills.

My style is a combination of direct instruction and an interactive, hands-on learning approach. I am trained to teach K-8 math through the Building Thinking Classrooms approach as well as in teaching special education students. I personalize my lessons to each of my students. In general, a typical session with me includes the following: 1.) Goal setting for the session 2.) A math activity to activate prior knowledge and review previously taught concepts 3.) An interactive mini-lesson, followed by guided practice 4.) Independent practice with constructive and scaffolded teacher feedback. 5.) Review and reflection. I look forward to hearing from you about how we can best collaborate towards your student's learning!

Knowledgeable tutor with great ideas
Amanda has had a significant impact on my daughter for the past several months that they have been working together. She really seems to understand and get to the core of the issue or "learning block" and has different ways to approach learning each concept. She is also very good at articulating her process to my wife and I. It also helps that my daughter looks forward to her sessions since Amanda is so nice and approachable.A Gem of Excellence: Kind, effective, insightful
Amanda is an exceptional tutor who has made a lasting impact on my fifth-grade student! From the moment we started, it was evident that we had found a gem in the world of tutors. Our student's progress with Amanda has been nothing short of extraordinary. Amanda brings a kind-hearted approach, insightful teaching methods, and genuine encouragement. What truly sets Amanda apart is her ability to tailor her lessons to meet our student's needs, but also her innate understanding of how to make complex concepts accessible and engaging, ensuring that each session is not only educational but also enjoyable. She sends detailed reports that give an incredible amount of insights on my student's strengths and areas of opportunity - I've gotten more insights on my child from Amanda than I have from any classroom teacher EVER. The progress my child has made under Amanda's guidance is a testament to her dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment to inspire a passion for lifelong learning. I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough. Amanda's exceptional skills as an educator, coupled with her kindness, insightfulness, and dedication, have made a profound impact on my child's educational journey. To any parent seeking a tutor who goes above and beyond, look no further than Amanda - just don't take our time slots!View more recommendations
