Fun Facts
I love to read, write, and travel. I come from a very large family and, naturally, I love being around large groups of people. I love spending time outdoors and being close to water, and I have a passion for fitness and tasty food, obviously a terrible combination.
About Me
In my most recent previous position I served as an Adult Basic Education Math Instructor in Detroit. I graduated from the University of Michigan-Dearborn in April of 2017 with Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and I minored in African and African American Studies. I have a passion for understanding the ways that sociology and psychology have an effect on students’ ability to excel in mathematics. And I love helping people!
Experience
I have been tutoring mathematics ever since I was in middle school and I continued to do so while in college. I have assisted students with learning a wide range of subjects including Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Geometry, Middle School math and more. In my previous position, I served as an Adult Basic Education Math Instructor for a company in Detroit and I assist students get prepared for Workforce readiness exams and the GED exam.
Approach
I start by acknowledging students’ strengths and making sure each student understands that there are some things that they are good at. I then seek to understand why students are struggling and what each individual is struggling with. My goal is to incorporate the things that students struggle with in topics that students understand, and to draw similarities between the two if they exist.
