Nancy
Retired Elementary and Mathematics Teacher want Students to Succeed
I have taught Mathematics in NJ for the past 30 years, elementary, middle school and Centenary College in Hackettstown, NJ. Math is not easy for all students. I understand the special needs student as I have tutored also for many years. With My BA and MA degrees plus 45+ credits in Mathematics Education I am confident I can communicate the subject and the appreciation for Mathematics to many diverse students. I desire to help students understand the subject, not just give them answers. I want...
ACT Math
algebra 1
algebra 2
ASVAB
elementary (k-6th)
elementary math
geometry
Praxis
The Praxis Tests are given in a certain topic area to find out how much a student knows about a topic, before that student can continue in that area of concentration toward another degree in Math, let's say, or give the student a teaching certificate for knowledge learned throughout his/her college education. After having taken the Praxis. I was found competent to teach Mathematics K-12. Then 20 years later took the General Knowledge Praxis and also found to be competent to teach Elementary School Grades 1-6. After taking the Praxis and many other standardized tests, I have learned how I learn and test, and pass and achieve my goal of being an effective teacher.

Nancy has been a pleasure to deal with when making arrangements to tutor my daughter in trig and business math. My daughter has learning issues, particularly in math and Nancy has been both patient and encouraging. I would recommend her to parents whose children have ADD or ADHD as she understands the challenges they face.

If it wasn't for Nancy I would never have been able to make it through my College Algebra course. I am an adult learner attending college in the evening and with Nancy's patience and ability to help me learn I was able to pick up a subject that has always given me difficulty. Nancy was always easy to reach and was very flexible on meeting times.
Diane G. from Macungie, PA
Nancy is fantastic! She is a real teacher who truly cares about not only what shes doing, but her students. Today these teachers are far and few between and hard to find. Nancy worked wonders with my son who has learning disabilities. She is truly dedicated to the job she is doing and I would highly, highly recommend her for anyone, at any age. Nancy has great patience, great heart and you could not ask for anything more from a tutor.
Jeanne H. from Reading, PA
My daughter has been working with Nancy for about two weeks on Algebra 2. She is helpful, patient and cares about the student's progress. My daughter really enjoys her tutoring sessions. Update: She did it! She brought her grades up and passed her finals! She's going to graduate next week! Thank you, Nancy. She couldn't have done it without you.

Nancy M. worked wonderfully with my child. She is prompt, patient and can engage her student in the material. My daughter's ACT scores jumped considerably after working with Nancy M. I would highly recommend her.
Lisa O. from Oley, PA
My son has had several sessions with Nancy so far and is very pleased with how things are going. He has told me he has learned more in these few sessions then he had through H.S. Nancy breaks down the math equations in a way that is simple for him to understand, and is easy to talk with. I am very happy we found her!
Shawn E. from Kutztown, PA
Nancy really cared about me add a student and as a person. She showed great patience when I was having trouble with certain areas. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing help in mathematics. Thanks Nancy!
Jenny B. from Fogelsville, PA
My daughter is good at math but she said she had some algebra that was giving her trouble. She told me Nancy really helped her understand it. This is why she sees her once a week so she doesn't get lost and starts to dislike math.

Nancy was knowledgeable in the subject matter and was able to get a handle on the situation. She offered an assessment and advice before diving into the lessons. Nancy worked around our schedule. She was encouraging and positive, and genuinely cared about helping my daughter.
