    Learn Math Easily from an Experienced Teacher

    Hello! My name is Jessie and I have over 12 years of experience as a teacher and a tutor. I have worked with students from elementary grades all the way up to high school as a tutor and I've worked at both the high school and middle school levels as a teacher. During lessons, I focus on the individual goals of each student in order to create a specific plan for efficient growth. I love to see my students gain confidence in new skills, often surpassing their original goals! My lessons are fun and engaging, but focused. If you have specific assignments/tests that you need help preparing for we will focus on those. However, if your goal is overall improvement in an area, then I will give you assessments that allow me to precisely identify any areas of weakness or challenge for us to focus on! Academically, I have two BAs in literature (one in English and one in German literature). I also have a MA in secondary mathematics education and have completed 46 graduate credit hours in special education. I am a currently employed and certified special education and math teacher who obtained high qualified status in reading instruction in 2013. Message me if you have any questions! I look forward to meeting with you!
