I actually guarantee results. I am a former university instructor, always receiving top ratings. I have been teaching math as a full time profession for 34 years, and have helped countless students turn even the most difficult academic situations into success stories. If we work together, I will do that for you too.

I am an Elementary Education major with a Math minor at the University of Montana. I have been tutoring math since 2020 and have worked with students in grades 5–12 in both individual and group settings. I enjoy breaking difficult concepts into smaller steps and helping students build confidence and a better understanding of math.

I’m an honors student at UM dual majoring in computer science and math. As someone who really hated and struggled with math most of high school, I understand what it's like to build frustration or even dread with the subject and what a difference a good tutor can make. My aim is for students to feel confident and unintimidated when they sit down with a problem. Whether it's getting clarity on a dense subject, trying to go the extra mile for testing season, or finding some study/note taking tips, I’m here to meet students where they’re at.

I'm an instructor at UM with a master's degree in mathematics education. I've been tutoring mathematics for more than a decade, working with students from middle school through college. I enjoy helping students work through difficult material, build confidence in their abilities, and develop a better understanding of how and why the mathematics works. My goal is to make math feel less intimidating and help students feel more comfortable and confident working through problems on their own. Please note: As a faculty member at the University of Montana, I cannot provide private tutoring to current UM students. If you are a UM student looking for help with math, you can visit the free drop-in Math Learning Center, located in the basement of the math building.

I'm a computer science major at UM, specializing in algorithm design, with minors in mathematics and neuroscience. I'm involved here at UMT in research studying how human learning and memory can be modeled mathematically: how quickly we forget, how one idea depends on another, and how we can better teach and build understanding.

Was a UM Mathematics Instructor for many years. Before that, I worked for the Forest Service as a Statistician and have experience with research projects for both Forestry and Psychology grad students.
