About Makenna

Unlocking a student's unique potential through personalized support is the cornerstone of my teaching philosophy. Over the past three years, I have helped elementary and middle school students master Math, English, and Science by breaking complex problems into manageable steps. I adapt my methods by actively observing how you interact with new material and encouraging open communication about your learning preferences. I thrive on connecting challenging concepts to your personal interests to keep you engaged and motivated. I believe clear, consistent communication with both students and parents builds the trust necessary for academic growth. Witnessing that "aha!" moment when a difficult concept finally clicks is the most rewarding part of my work. I look forward to building a supportive rapport with you as we work together to achieve your goals.
