About Deena

For over 20 years, I've been helping students unlock their potential and achieve academic success. I am a certified teacher with some graduate school experience. My primary approach focuses on building confidence and fostering a love for learning through personalized support. I vary my teaching strategies, using visual aids, hands-on activities, discussions, and practice problems. I connect challenging topics to real-world examples and break down complex problems into manageable steps. Regular communication with both students and parents is essential for understanding needs and setting clear expectations. Math, Science, Test Preparation, and Study Skills are all courses I can help with. I'm comfortable working with students from elementary school through college, at their home, online, in a library, or at a coffee shop.
