...track that eventually led me to receive my BA in English from the University of Southern California, and my MFA in Poetry from Washington University of St. Louis, where I also taught undergraduate poetry workshops for two years.

I want them to come to know that math can, in fact, be fun.

I am a storyteller by nature, and I believe teaching--regardless of the subject-- is storytelling at the core. Instead of tales of fantasy and fiction, however, these are stories about how the world works. Students like working with me because of my ability to communicate information in a way that they can understand (i.e. I tell the story they want to hear). I enjoy swimming, being outdoors, and pets.

...education is the key to individual success in life. Education brings out our strengths and weaknesses and forces us to address both. One on one educational situations give a better opportunity to address both, and provides a more specific type of instruction. I believe these one-on-one sessions allows for the most powerful progress for an individual student. Addressing weaknesses also builds character and allows a person to be a more effective member of our culture...

...I have recently had the pleasure of attending professional development in CRISS, John Samara, and other math consultants. In these training sessions, I have learned valuable ways in which to get the students actively engaged with the mathematics. The main concepts I have regularly implemented in my classroom are having the students produce products instead of just working examples and having the students complete tasks/game-oriented assignments in small groups. The students have responded well to...

...those exams. Four years of high school knowledge seems like an overwhelming amount to tackle. But unlike exams you may have taken in the past, the tests don't want memorization of times and places but the use of evidence to answer questions and draw conclusions. The math is around 55% algebra so that might need some review, but it is mostly Algebra 1 and, I promise, is manageable. You can do this. Hopefully, I can...

...should be discovered, used, and appreciated. Learning and teaching are dynamic activities which have a natural reciprocity. In addition to helping students learn the material; teachers should create an environment of support so students discover their own best learning style and strengths. My own teaching style is flexible and sensitive to each student's needs, but I have found open inquiry and play therapy techniques to be the most effective. Students not only master the subject...

...am committed to continuing to "unlearn" stereotypes and make that a priority in my professional work and personal relationships. I love the process of teaching and learning. Most days I learn as much as I teach. I have an off-beat sense of humor that I bring to my encounters in the classroom and to individualized tutoring. Learning can be serious, rigorous, rewarding, challenging, and successful. It can also incorporate a lighthearted touch with a good...
