My tutoring journey began when my fellow teachers asked me to tutor their own children in math subjects. Then parents of former students asked me to tutor their younger siblings. In 2018 I left the classroom to focus exclusively on tutoring. In 2019, I founded Blockhead Tutoring to make good tutors accessible to students in all subjects, to meet the needs of each student who is amazingly different.

During nearly 20 years in the classroom, I taught math to students of diverse ages and backgrounds: from Pre-K to high school, students with special needs, students specializing in performing arts, and students in a college preparatory curriculum.

What I learned is that each student, regardless of age or background, needs information explained in a different way. There are multiple ways to teach even the most basic math concepts.

Tutoring gives me the opportunity to provide individualized instruction in a way that works for each student. This is the premise on which I founded Blockhead Tutoring.
