What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to inspire students and develop engaging math curricula.

I am a dedicated mathematics educator with over a decade of experience in teaching and tutoring students at various educational levels. My journey began with a solid foundation in Industrial Engineering, which I complemented with a Bachelor's degree in Secondary Education, majoring in Mathematics, and a Master's degree in Teaching. I have successfully passed the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) and have been actively involved in enhancing students' understanding of mathematical concepts through innovative teaching methods.

Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse educational institutions, including universities and online platforms, where I provided personalized tutoring and developed comprehensive curricula. My role as a Math Tutor at Riiid Inc and Course Hero allowed me to engage with students remotely, offering tailored solutions to their mathematical queries. I take pride in my ability to create a supportive learning environment that fosters academic growth and confidence in my students.

In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I have contributed to content creation for educational materials and have participated in various seminars to stay updated with the latest pedagogical strategies. I am passionate about making mathematics accessible and enjoyable for all learners, and I am eager to continue my journey in education, inspiring the next generation of mathematicians.
