- these traits carry through in my teaching style,
One Size does NOT fit all--I approach the lesson plans for each student tailored to your learning style.
Over the past 23 years, my life experiences have encompassed other disciplines and compelled me to learn and acquire many other skills: my liberal arts as well as fine arts education lent itself to helping me work administrative jobs and even expanded into sales and public speaking. I have coached after school and SAT preparation to High School and College age students, helped with the preparation of legal and analytical documents, creative writing and editing assignments; and even tutored computer, social media and Microsoft Office & iWork Suite of applications to older adults.

I look forward to helping you reach your goals

s experience tutoring both. She is also an advanced speaker of Italian.

udents are not afraid to tell me when they don't understand things and that their confusion is well attended to and cleared up with as little stress as possible. I'm not your typical introverted math student and have communication skills to explain mathematical concepts in ways that are simple to grasp. I put an emphasis on listening to my students and what they feel they need to learn and how they learn best and am chock-full of ideas and suggestions if the student has no preferences themselves. I look forward to helping you fulfill your math goals smoothly without all the frustration, whether they be requirements or a central part of your college education.
