Certified Tutor

I consider myself to be a pioneer educator of all levels of mathematics. After completing my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Physics at University of Maryland, College Park, I dedicated my life to math education by earning a Master of Education in Secondary Education at the same university and completed my student teaching credentials at Montgomery Blair High School near Washington, DC. Furthermore, as a good teacher is also a good student, I am pursuing a Master of Science degree in Applied Mathematics at Towson University. I have over 6 years of experience teaching students from many different backgrounds. At the High School level, I have taught Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Pre-Calculus, Consumer Mathematics, & AP Calculus. At the Community College level, I have taught Developmental Mathematics & Introductory Statistics.

I love tutoring all math courses as they are all interconnected in the greater scheme of analytical thinking. When tutoring, I ask students for their goals in the course, whether they are an art student needing a math credit, or an engineering student who needs to prepare for further courses in the future, I am prepared to help students with their goals. Furthermore, I always review the basics that form the foundation of a math topic as just a little explanation of a previous topic will engage students with the problem at hand.

My primary interests outside of mathematics are globetrotting and movies. I love meeting new people and seeing new sights. I usually try to do satisfy my wanderlust by travelling to new cities and countries. So far, I have visited at least 24 countries and hope to see many more. I am currently living in Budapest and loving every minute of the experience. However, sometimes a good movie can send me to far away lands that I have yet to see. I therefore love watching independent and science fiction movies.
