I am an experienced educator and administrator who is passionate about learning and helping students to find their love of learning as well. With 15 years in education as a teacher and an administrator, I have worked with a wide variety of students and faculty to meet their learning needs. My classroom experience includes Advanced Algebra, Spanish, gifted education, history and adult education English Language Learners. In addition to classroom teaching, I tutored multiple students in math, from basic computation to advanced algebra and geometry. I enjoy making math easier and more relatable for all students and watching them experience the joy when it “makes sense”. The Numerade program appeals to me because it offers a way for students to understand and enjoy math, on their schedule.
