Experience
I have a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Illinois State University. As a National Board Certified Math teacher, I have worked for the past 17 years in the Chicago Public School system, primarily teaching mathematics. I have also worked with groups of students who were behind or ahead of the curve and so needed extra help or new challenges. Presently, I teach math to middle school students (6th through 8th grades). In addition to my math teaching experience, I have coached small groups in reading and have served as the lead math teacher, working with other teachers on mathematics instruction. Though I love math today, that wasn't always true. Having faced my own math struggles has been very beneficial in working with students who have difficulty with mathematical concepts or find the subject intimidating. I understand that each student learns differently, and meeting them in their own comfort zones is the most effective way to help them move forward.
