About Mary Lou H.
4.7
(86)
I graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with a Bachelor of Science in Education/Mathematics. I am a "real" math teacher.
I have taught math to elementary students, algebra and geometry in junior high and high school, and all levels for college students.
For example, my first student had dropped out of high school and had the opportunity to earn a diploma rather than a GED. She only needed her math credit. I was so proud to share my graduation gown from my closet with her and provide her with an authentic graduation picture when we finished.
I have also helped a grandmother earn her GED, a mother earn her MBA, several young men prepare for the ASVABs (military entry test) and many students navigate through math, pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry courses on their way to high school graduation. I would love for you to be my next success story!
