Instructor Bio:

Hi, my name is Deborah. I have tutored children and adults for over 9 years. I approach each lesson with humor and make the material relatable to the
students. I approach the questions as fun “puzzles,” and “brain games,” not as parts of “tests.” After all, I am a puzzle lover myself!

 

Educational Background, Degrees, Licenses:

B.A. French Language

ESL Certificate, Literacy Assistance Center

Fun Fact:

When I get away from the city, I like to stargaze. I have seen all eight planets
through my telescope.

Shashank says:

Deborah is very engaging and focuses on concepts and practice. She is able to explain things in a way the child can understand in an online class. Very good math workout. I highly recommend this teacher. My kids really like the teacher she is able to engage the class and create a competitive atmosphere.

Denny says:

Ms. Deborah is an excellent tutor, she explains the concepts to my child in an easy-to-understand manner. She helps students by explaining math concepts in a clear way, and her assignments are well thought out based on topics covered in class.

Ellen says:

It started off difficult for my child, but by the end of the sessions she felt confident. I was pleased with that outcome. Deborah was kind, patient, and encouraging. I couldn’t have asked for more from her. My daughter learned a lot of new information and loved that the learning is done without pressure or stress.

William says:

My son enjoyed this math class. Love the facts that Ms. Deborah would provide, and the additional practice sheets for the kids to practice after each session.
