About Mary Rose

I am a New York State Certified Teacher with a Dual B.A. in  Math and Education and a M.S. in Reading. I taught in public schools for almost 12 years at the lower primary and middle grades specializing in math, gifted math, SAT & ACT instruction. Throughout my tenure I participated in numerous District Committes where I used my expertise to work on a team to realign math objectives to meet and exceed the state standards for math, gifted math and English. I was selected to develop workshops that taught teachers the best ways to use manipulatives to introduce math concepts. 

During my long maternity leave from the public school classroom, I tutored privately, taught as an adjunct math and reading instructor, and wrote children's books and teacher articles for use in the primary classroom.  I am a wonderful tutor because my students tell me so.They indicate that I make learning fun and show them how to connect all the dots in math.

Specialities

I am a math expert who specializes in teaching math for grades 5-8 and Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry and Trigonometry.  I possess strong Critical Thinking Skills which gives me the necessary insight to consider the best interests of my students. I exhibit a strong amount of patience which allows me the flexibility to mold my expectations to fit better with the  students' true abilities. My strong, verbal communication allows me the opportunity to express myself in a way that promotes learning.  My organizational skills are strong and I can manage my time efficiently. I am a natural at using the computer to keep my students engaged and excited about the content they are are learning.  I use mnemonic devices(acronyms, rhymes, imagery, etc.)  regularly to give my students an opportunity to memorize important formulas and concepts while having fun. I make my studnets smile a lot!
