Swoboda HomeschoolAuburn, NEMath Tutor for All Ages
I taught math for the first time in 2002, when I helped some assistants at the lab where I worked through Trigonometry as adult learners. I've continued to teach math to students of all ages, from PreK through Precalculus and College Algebra/Trigonometry, over the last 20 years. I taught several semesters at the local community college during graduate school. When I became a mother, I decided to leave my Engineering career and become a stay-at-home, homeschool mom. That led me to teach at co-ops and hybrid schools for the last decade, including as a 1-1 tutor, where I have had the opportunity to teach students from their very earliest years all the way through Pre-calculus. One of my students is now in her final year earning an engineering degree, and has called me on occasion through college for some math help! I love to teach math, and although I don't have a special ed degree, I do have experience with learning difficulties, including ADHD and dyslexia, both with my own children and others. I love to find creative ways to help learners find the approach that allows math to make sense.
