I have always enjoyed helping students understand challenging mathematical concepts and finding different ways to explain ideas until they make sense. Through my experience teaching mathematics, I have learned that students often approach problems in different ways, and effective tutoring comes from finding an explanation that works for each individual student.

I have experience teaching mathematics as a graduate teaching assistant at Arizona State University, working with students in courses including Algebra, Calculus, and Statistics. My academic background includes mathematics, statistics, and data analysis, allowing me to work with students across a wide range of topics.

My approach to tutoring is focused on identifying where a student is struggling and building from there. I aim to make difficult concepts more approachable while helping students develop the skills and problem-solving strategies they need to succeed.

With Focus Tutors, I support students in mathematics, including Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus, and Statistics.

I grew up in Mesa, Arizona in a family where education was always held in the highest regard.  While growing up I wasn't always the best student, but I learned early on that hard work and effort make all the difference.

When I took my first physics class in high school, I knew that I wanted to do something with physics. While many other students struggled with the subject I worked at understanding it until I was top of the class. I figured that I would become a physicist and do important research. However, while in college I found that  what I really enjoyed doing was helping other students understand tough concepts. There was something about seeing the light in their eyes when they finally understood something that made me decide to be a teacher. 

I got a degree in Physics Teaching from BYU and came back to the Valley. I have been teaching high school physics and science ever since. I specialize in math and physics and on presenting these in different ways until they can be understood.
