My name is Jaime and my mission as a math tutor is to help students gain confidence and experience success in middle and high school mathematics classes. When I was in high school, I struggled with learning math UNTIL I had the right teacher. Those struggles make me a better teacher, because I understand the frustration that students can feel when they don’t “get it”.

I am originally from the Chicago area and graduated with my Bachelors degree from Eastern Illinois University. After moving out west and teaching in Arizona and California, I moved to Rochester, Minnesota, where I spent the bulk of my career teaching middle and high school math. I earned my Masters degree from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota in 2011. I have been a math tutor since 2009 and held many other positions that aim to serve others and help them become better versions of themselves.

I currently live in Gilbert, along with my dog and 3 cats. People seem to get a kick out of the names of my cats: Monica, Chandler and Rachel. My dog’s name is Dug, named after the dog in the Pixar movie, Up. In my free time, I enjoy reading, exercising, painting, puzzling and spending time with family.

I look forward to working with you! I offer tutoring services to middle and high school students in Pre-Algebra, Geometry and Algebra.
