About Makeba

Hello! My name is Makeba, MS. I am currently a 3rd year medical student. Unlocking a student's unique potential through personalized support is at the heart of my teaching practice. With three years of experience, I specialize in Math, English, and Science for elementary through high school students. I cultivate an engaging, patient environment where I adapt my methods--ranging from visual aids to hands-on problem solving--based on how each student interacts with new material. By breaking complex concepts into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, I help students build both momentum and confidence. I believe clear, consistent communication with families is essential to fostering a collaborative space where students thrive. Nothing compares to the joy of witnessing that "aha!" moment when a difficult concept finally clicks. I am truly passionate about empowering you to reach your academic goals and look forward to embarking on this learning journey together.
