Experience
The joy in helping students succeed in an area where they thought they could not is what keeps me tutoring! I am a self-proclaimed math geek, and I try to share my enthusiasm for math with my students, although I don't expect them to love math as much as I do. Currently, I work for the U.S. government in accounting and finance systems. In the past, I was a classroom teacher. Recently, I found myself missing it, so I decided to start tutoring students in all levels of mathematics and I love it! I received my bachelor's with double majors in psychology and mathematics from Tufts University. I have three master's degrees in accounting/MBA from Northeastern; education from Stanford; and finance from George Washington University. I became credentialed to teach psychology and math in California, and I taught high school in San Jose. I also taught math at Avery Coonley School and at Tabor Academy. I am a skilled skier, and spend winters teaching skiing. I enjoy helping students of all grade levels understand which mathematical core concepts are keeping them from reaching their potential. Our work starts from there! Let's do our best to enjoy math together. In addition to skiing, I love dogs and knitting.
