1:1 Bespoke Math Tutoring
for Grades 2–12
Personalized, one-on-one instruction built around your child's actual coursework — from an educator with 14 years in education, including work as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and math program specialist.
14 years in education, now tutoring one student at a time.
I've spent 14 years in education — as a classroom teacher, an instructional coach training other teachers, and most recently running a math tutoring program for DC Public Schools. I started tutoring privately because I kept seeing the same thing: kids who just needed focused, patient, one-on-one attention to turn frustration into confidence.
I work with students where they actually are — aligned to their school's curriculum, their upcoming tests, and the specific gaps that are holding them back — rather than a generic worksheet program.
I'm a math pedagogy expert — I understand the science of how kids actually learn math, not just how to explain it. That means lots of hands-on manipulatives and visual models, and a focus on building real conceptual understanding rather than memorized steps that fall apart under pressure.
What I tutor
Every session is one-on-one and tailored to your child's grade level, school, and goals — from 2nd grade through AP Calculus.
Elementary & Middle School Math
Building real number sense and confidence early — arithmetic fluency, fractions, ratios, and pre-algebra foundations that make high school math click later.
Algebra Through AP Calculus
Algebra I & II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Calculus (including AP Calculus), and IB Math — paired directly with your child's classwork, homework, and upcoming tests.
SAT / ACT Math Prep
Targeted strategy and practice for the math sections, with a plan built around your student's actual score goals and timeline.

Why parents choose to work with me
A real classroom teacher, not a generalist
14 years in education means I know exactly how curricula are taught and where students typically get stuck.
Instructional coaching background
I spent years training other teachers on how students actually learn math — that shapes every session I run.
Built around your child's coursework
No generic worksheets — sessions track your child's current class, tests, and specific trouble spots.
Patient, encouraging, and consistent
The goal is confidence as much as competence — students leave sessions feeling capable, not defeated.
A math pedagogy expert
I know the science of how kids actually learn math — sessions use hands-on manipulatives and visual models to build real conceptual understanding, not just memorized steps.
