Math with Rose

I have worked as a private math tutor since 2006. My educational background is in math, and I have worked with students from 6th grade through college to help them gain an understanding- and sometimes even a love- for my field!

I believe in building an appreciation for mathematics, not only for what it can do for us, but because it has an intrinsic beauty. I specialize in the path to Calculus, meaning Algebra, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, and then Calculus itself. It is truly a beautiful field, full of internal patterns and fascinating applications. I also work with students working towards their college goals. I help students in preparing for SAT and ACT tests, as well as tests to meet graduation requirements and college placement exams.

I studied for two years at Dominican University of California in the Bay Area. I finished my education at the University of Oregon, with a degree in Mathematics and a Secondary Education emphasis.

When I am not teaching math or writing math curriculum (which is infrequent), I enjoy spending time with my husband and our cat, working in my garden, and enjoying the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. How many people can say they live an hour from the beach, the mountains, hiking trails, waterfalls, and a large city full of art and eccentricity? I am very lucky!
