As I enter my senior year of high school, I have gained valuable experience working with teachers and developed practical strategies to excel at tests. I have come to understand where students often make mistakes and developed resources to help mitigate those errors.  I want to help students start the year off strong by giving them a head start on topics which can easily become overwhelming without the right support. 

 

I offer six-hour packages, which can be on any subject ranging from basic math to history, spread out over multiple sessions, depending on a student's needs.  These packages are $150, with every subsequent hour being $25.  As an example of packages, some of the various math options are noted below.

Middle-School Math Refresh - Middle school math reasoning and problem-solving skills are fundamental for success in future math courses.  By taking the initiative to thoroughly understand these concepts early on, students not only get a head start this year, but also develop the necessary skills to tackle more advanced coursework.

​

Algebra Accelerator - After initially struggling the first couple weeks in Algebra, I was able to establish knowledge of the required formulas, and immensely improved my performance with the help of a school mentor.  I am deeply thankful for her willingness to help me navigate the requirements of the course, and I hope to do the same for others.  I have subsequently developed many strategies and tips for students to excel in their Algebra 1 or 2 course.

 

This is an introduction to Algebra I or Algebra II, where I provide focused introduction to the essential skills needed for success in either course.  This would be an ideal program for those who are either starting Algebra I, or those who need a refresher on Algebra formulas while advancing into the principles of Algebra II.

Geometry Blueprint - Geometry isn't just about memorizing theorems.  It's about thinking logically and applying that logic to solve real-world scenarios.  My tutoring program provides students with a strong foundation in geometry, enabling them to understand the subject deeply, not just pass the test.

​​

Pre-Calculus Ascent - I had a very successful school year in precalculus after devoting a significant amount of time to thoroughly grasp the material. Through my numerous
problem-solving experiences, I learned how to correct common mistakes and developed the ability to recognize subtle patterns and misconceptions students often struggle with. These experiences allowed me to refine my ability to choose and apply the most effective problem-solving strategies, mastering the fundamentals of precalculus with both precision and confidence.​​
