About Jolene

I'm a certified teacher with a college degree, ready to support your child's math journey. With 25 plus years of experience as a classroom teacher, I focus on building confidence and fostering a love for learning in elementary and middle school students. I believe every student has unique potential and adapt my teaching to their individual needs by listening and observing their interactions with new material. I also vary my teaching strategies and encourage open communication. I keep students motivated by connecting topics to their interests and celebrating small successes. Communication is essential for understanding student needs, so I value building trust with both students and parents. Witnessing a student's "aha!" moment is the most rewarding part of tutoring for me. I have a car and can tutor at your home. I would love to help your student achieve their goals!
