My approach adapts to each student’s learning style, focusing on making complex ideas clear and accessible. I use informal questioning and present problems with multiple entry points to gauge how students think and adapt my teaching in real-time.
Reasoning Focus: I emphasize justification and reasoning, helping students understand and apply math concepts effectively.

A typical lesson with me includes:
Initial Problem: We start with a problem to see how the student approaches it, discussing their thought process.
Discussion: I engage with the student about their reasoning, addressing any misconceptions or gaps.
Information and Resources: I provide new methods or review previous material as needed, equipping the student with the necessary tools.
Practice: The student works on additional problems, applying what they’ve learned.
Work Review: We discuss their solutions and strategies, refining their understanding.
Reflection: We reflect on what was learned and plan the next steps for continued improvement.

My extensive experience allows me to tailor lessons to individual needs, whether for struggling students or those seeking to excel. I focus on helping students develop a deep comprehension of math concepts, rather than just memorizing procedures.

I work with middle and high school students across various math subjects, including Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2 and Trigonometry. My methods also support those preparing for standardized tests or aiming to improve their overall relationship with math.

Let’s work together to build your confidence and deepen your understanding of math!
