Geometry Lessons in Austin. Amazing Teachers.

I remember having trouble myself with some prealgebra and algebra concepts in the 8th grade. With a little after school help from my teacher, I was back on track and did well. In high school, most of my classmates had to start with high school level algebra as freshmen. I tested out and was able to go straight to geometry.

Later in life, I was teaching these same skills to young and older adults who were studying to earn their GED. The math section of the GED is where most do poorly and I'm proud to say that over 50 of my GED prep students received their Maryland State High School Diplomas!

I'm an experienced math teacher of 5 years and I love helping others to discover the excitement and beauty of math! I believe that everyone has the ability to do math, and I work to tailor my lessons to each student's unique way of thinking. Most of my teaching experience has been with students who do not naturally gravitate towards mathematical thinking. I enjoy finding ways to translate math concepts into various forms so that students can understand them more easily. Sometimes that means drawing a picture or using a metaphor - I keep exploring with my students until we have found the solution together. My goal is to give my students confidence and tools to be able to master math on their own.

I am an experienced tutor of mathematics and SAT/ACT preparation. I have taught at both Wake Technical Community College in Raleigh, NC and Durham Technical Community College in Durham, NC. I am a graduate of Clemson University, and received my master’s degree in mathematics education from North Carolina State University. I have nearly 8 years of experience tutoring Math up to Calculus 1.

Some of the math subjects that I tutor are:

• algebra 1-3
• math 1-3
• advanced functions and modeling (AFM)
• pre-calculus algebra and trigonometry
• AP (or college) calculus 1

SAT/ACT tutoring:

I am skilled at discerning where students are in their present math knowledge, and then locating areas of improvement that I push them towards attaining. I also have experience with preparing students to take the SAT/ACT by helping them improve their potential math scores. I help them improve these scores by teaching them proper test taking skills, increasing their abilities, and with ...
