About Me

Experience Summary

I currently teach Algebra and pre-Algebra in international schools (just coming from Myanmar, next I'll be going to Beirut). I've taught all levels 4th through 8th grade over the past 10 years in a variety of subject areas, but my specialities are math and writing. I've also taught adult learners and I homeschooled my own four kids. Early in my career I worked as a journalist, then as a public relations representative for corporations and government agencies.

Teaching Style

I build inquiry-based lessons so students figure out concepts for themselves, which gives them a deep understanding of material. This is particularly useful for those who need remedial work in math. If you started getting lost early on in your math classes, I can help you fill gaps and get up to speed quickly by figuring out the fundamental relationships within the language of math.

My Hobbies

yoga, reading, hiking, traveling
