Incredible Tutor!!
Sarah, 7 lessons with RebeccaI needed to take my first maths class in 10 years and was nervous to get back to it. Not only was Rebecca kind and patient while I worked my way through the course, but she also made me feel confident going into exams. Rebecca was available and flexible, and excellent at explaining complicated statistics concepts to someone who has little understanding of the subject.

Hello! My name is Rebecca and I am excited to help some students in their journey towards mathematical mastery!
I graduated from USC with a Bachelor's in Math and a Master's degree/teaching credential in Math education. I have taught high-school math for the last 11 years (3 years in Pomona, and 8 years in Irvine.) I have also taught at the Community College level.

Hello! My name is Rebecca and I am excited to help some students in their journey towards mathematical mastery!
I graduated from USC with a Bachelor's in Math and a Master's degree/teaching credential in Math education. I have taught high-school math for the last 11 years (3 years in Pomona, and 8 years in Irvine.) I have also taught at the Community College level. My high school teaching experience includes the following subjects: Algebra I/II, Pre-Calc, Geometry, Math I/II/III, AP Statistics, AP Calc AB, FST (Functions, Stats, Trig.) At the community college level, I have had experience teaching Elementary Statistics, Elementary Algebra and Pre-Calc. I am fully qualified to instruct on any mathematical level up through Calc AB, but I have had the most experience with Geometry, Algebra, Statistics and Calc. I have had great success teaching both AP Calc AB and AP Statistics and helping students to pass those exams.
My teaching method is to fully explain the "why" behind the concepts, and to tie all concepts into the "big picture." As a teacher of over 11 years, I have found that one of the pitfalls of tutoring can be when the tutors talk students through every problem. It is much easier for students to perform a problem when watching a problem done for them or being prompted with the first, second steps etc. However, when it comes to an exam, those same students will often struggle on their own. It is therefore imperative that students can independently analyze and critically think through various types of the same concept. I will therefore ensure that all of my tutoring sessions involve a fair amount of time where students are working through problems completely independently to then be checked by me. If they need my assistance at any point along the way, then we will simply mark that problem as one that they need to return to and try again on their own. In this way, students can begin to build confidence in their mathematical proficiency in knowing that they can solve problems completely unassisted.

Statistics
Statistics
I love teaching statistics! It is easily my favorite math subject because it is so applicable to the real world. I believe it is a very important subject that all students should become proficient in. I have had 6 years teaching AP Statistics in Irvine and getting great results on the AP exam where 90%+ students pass. I have also had several years teaching statistics at the Community College level. I am also proficient in different statistics tools such as the TI-83/84 graphing calculators and a Statistical online program called MiniTab. I love explaining the "why" behind different Statistical concepts and demonstrating how we see them play out in the real world on a daily basis.

Homeschool
Algebra 1,
Algebra 1
I have taught classes for 11 years (all of which involve an extensive amount of algebra.) I also really enjoy algebra as a subject. It is the foundation for all higher level math, and so, proficiency in it, is crucial. I enjoy helping students discover the "big picture" for algebraic concepts and to see how everything follows a similar mathematical pattern.

Calculus,
Calculus
I spent 3 and a half years teaching AP Calculus AB at my first teaching job. I took a class that only had 14 students to start, and slowly grew the course into two sections of 25-30 students. In addition, when I first took the class over, students were only scoring 1's on the AP exam. For my last year teaching this class , I had half my class score a 2 and higher, a third of the class passed with a 3 and higher, and a fourth of the class scored a 4 or a 5.
Geometry,

For 8 years teaching in Irvine, I have taught 3 years of Geometry and an additional 5 years teaching Math II, where the second semester is all Geometry concepts.

Precalculus,
Precalculus
For three years in Pomona, I taught regular Pre-Calculus as well as Honors Pre-Calculus. I also taught Irvine's online Enhanced Math 3 course last year which deals with the most difficult of Pre-Calculus concepts. I was also responsible for refining and developing the online exams for that course. I have also had experience teaching Pre-Calculus at the Community College level.

best AP stats teacher !
Rebecca is a amazing AP statistics teacher ! She has the knowledge, patience and most importantly she gave you all the practice you need!I highly recommend Rebecca!!
Kelly, 39 lessons with Rebecca
Great Tutor!
Rebecca is a wonderful tutor. She has only worked with my daughter a couple times. However, Rebecca makes sure my daugher is comfortable and confident with the material before ending the lesson. Rebecca is a great addition to my daughter's education support team!

Happy Parent!
Rebecca is such a great AP Statistics tutor! I feel fortunate that we connected with her on Wyzant. My daughter is finding her sessions with Rebecca extremely helpful! They are currently working on midterm review and my daughter loves working with Rebecca!
Cheri, 10 lessons with Rebecca
Kind and knowledgeable
My daughter missed several days of AP statistics because she was on a Model Congress trip. She needed to both review the previous unit and learn the missed material for an upcoming test. Rebecca was patient and helpful. She managed to get my daughter caught up with the skills and figure out how to focus her studying. We were so appreciative. Usually my daughter is reluctant to seek help, but said she’d love to have other sessions with Rebecca.

Great tutor, Very knowledgeable and patient
Rebecca is great at MiniTab and statistics! She was able to help me with multiple Minitab assignments that had to do with statistics. She is very good at walking you through the problems and helping to explain how to do it.
Brady, 3 lessons with Rebecca
Very skilled and knowledgable
I had to learn a few key units for AP statistics on my own, and Rebecca taught them to me thoroughly and efficiently. Additionally, her help in reviewing old subjects and maintaining skills from other units was very helpful. She provided structured lessons, took much of her own time to review materials for our meetings, and overall helped me start scoring 5s. She works through problems expertly and has great skill in explaining concepts simply yet comprehensively. I would recommend Rebecca for anyone struggling in their class or looking for extra help.
