Our Team at Mathnasium of Braselton

Haley Barrett

Haley is known for her empathy, encouragement, and ability to make math feel less intimidating. As someone who overcame dyslexia to excel in math and science, she understands the importance of teaching in a way that makes sense to each student. 

Currently taking AP Calculus AB and playing competitive softball at Mill Creek High School, Haley somehow balances athletics, academics, and a part-time job at Mathnasium—much to the benefit of her students, who love learning from her.

Jordan Luster

Jordan earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Math Education from the University of Georgia and brings more than four years of Mathnasium experience to his hometown of Flowery Branch. He’s passionate about helping students build confidence and enjoy the learning process. 

A fan of tabletop games, comic books, movies, and—of course—math, Jordan believes there’s always room to learn and grow. He aims to inspire that same mindset in every student he teaches.

Noor Ali

Noor is a senior at the Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology and has been part of the Mathnasium team for over four years. After excelling in AP Calculus, she now studies AP Statistics and college-level Algebra—and even earned a perfect score on the math section of the SAT. 

In addition to her academic achievements, Noor has played professional tennis for nine years and is active in student council, National Honor Society, and Model United Nations. She’s passionate about helping students succeed and loves connecting with them over shared interests.

Connor Kelly

Connor is a Full-Diploma IB senior at Johnson High School, currently taking Math Analysis. A math honors student and founder of his school’s STEM Club, Connor is dedicated to making math understandable for all students. He excels at breaking down complex ideas step-by-step to build deep understanding. 

He’s also an active member of the National Honor Society and his school’s theatre department—and may just be the top chess player at Mathnasium (a title still up for debate). With plans to study engineering, Connor is excited to keep exploring new ways to support and inspire young math learners.

Cyndy Solis

Cyndy has an Associate's Degree in Chemistry and is pursuing her Bachelor's in Computer Science at the University of North Georgia. She has always liked working with students to help reach their individual goals, and, fortunately, her favorite subject is math. Cyndy is also a regular volunteer for Girls On The Run and Athens Kids Specialists Pediatrics.

Ethan Harward

Ethan is ready to tackle the toughest math topics! He completed multi-variable calculus and linear algebra through Georgia Tech's dual enrollment program during high school, and does an amazing job teaching upper level math topics to Mathnasium students. Always calm and composed, Ethan helps students develop the patience and organization needed to succeed in advanced math courses. His approach to teaching is rooted in his own personal experiences of becoming accomplished in carpentry, 3D design and music through consistent and patient practice. Ethan currently attends University of North Georgia where he studies Mechanical Engineering, a field that incorporates his interests in technology, building and science.

Emily Tran

Emily is a senior at Buford High School, currently taking AP Calculus after finishing AP Statistics. She is the copresident of her school's chapter of Kiwanis International Key Club, founder of a nonprofit student tutoring website, and cofounder of Buford's STEM Club. Emily is proud to dedicate her time to the achievement of all students at Mathnasium and in her community. She has a knack for identifying and addressing the root of her students' problems to ensure their success both in and out of our center. When she isn't practicing math, Emily enjoys crocheting, ice skating, and coding.

Caitlyn Connaire

Caitlyn is a senior at Mill Creek High School and a former Mathnasium student herself! Having experienced the success of the Mathnasium Method first-hand, she's eager to apply her own confidence and skills to now help bolster those of the rest of our students. Caitlyn brings a bright and positive attitude to each student's lesson that's almost infectious. She's a member of the NHS chapter and cheer team at her school, currently taking AP Calculus AB. She spends her summers volunteering at Tender Ones Therapy Services where she helps children with special needs learn to make crafts, dance, paddle board, and other fun activities.
