Personal information
Bio
I have over 16 years of experience teaching student with learning challenges. I primarily work with middle and early high school students, but I also work with adults who are working toward their high school equivalency diploma. I am certified in special education for all grade levels and teaching English for high school. I have extensive training and experience in teaching math to students who struggle, especially at the pre-algebra and Algebra 1 level. I have experience working with students with ADHD, executive functioning issues, learning disabilities, and other challenges as well.
