Hi! I am a certified math teacher with 20 years of experience working with students from elementary school through college. I have a Master's degree in Mathematics and a Master's degree in Education also. I am very comfortable teaching all different age groups and enjoy working with students one-on-one. One-on-one teaching helps me understand their strengths and weaknesses. I try to listen to my students' needs and evaluate that first, and then based on that I provide support, guidance, advice and encouragement to students on issues regarding their progress in education. I am very consistent and patient with my students. Since math is very cumulative, I always like to spend some time to review the prior and old material to fill in the gaps and then teach the new material. Since July 1992, I have enjoyed carrying out my responsibilities as a math educator. I enjoy working with children w

I am an independent financial consultant, and I have three children. Consequently I've been tutoring many years for my children and have experience teaching math from first grade to high school. Two sons already grew up and are in college. Both are successful examples of my tutoring. The youngest son is in the 8th grade now. Throughout the experience of teaching them I learned the patience and example methods that can be universally applicable. I myself studied math in the undergraduate and studied business in the graduate school. Let me help your child be my next success story!

Throughout my academic career, I have worked as a mentor and tutor in the subjects of chemistry, biology, and mathematics. Over the past eight years, I have tutored undergraduate students and taught chemistry laboratories.

I also managed our chemistry websites for both educators and freshman chemistry students. Teaching can be an instantly rewarding experience as one is able to watch the moment of a student's realization of a concept. All students can learn, but the job of an educator is to understand how they learn most effectively and what they want to learn.
