Justin Nowell
@justinnowell
I’m a senior secondary mathematics educator delivering data-driven, personalized STEM instruction that boosts standardized test outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accomplished secondary mathematics teacher and tutor focused on personalized, data-driven instruction in high-stakes academic settings. I develop targeted learning plans and test-taking strategies that strengthen student confidence, especially for standardized assessments like the SAT and ACT.
Across classrooms and virtual platforms, I’ve built and implemented rigorous curriculum (including AP coursework and probability/statistics) and used student progress monitoring to guide instruction. I’ve also created fully online curriculum at scale, improved SAT Math performance by 150 points through tutoring, and contributed to leadership efforts such as mathematics department head coaching and instructional data analysis. I bring strong educational technology skills (Canvas LMS, OneNote, Zoom, Blackboard Connect, K12s LMS) and a commitment to continuous, measurable student growth.
