Rachel

Rachel’s love of mathematics and teaching children prompted her to open a Mathnasium Learning Center. To be able to teach math to kids in “a way that makes sense to them” is a dream come true! Rachel pursued studies in Mathematics and Chemistry in undergraduate school and Applied Mathematics in graduate school. She has taught math at every level of the education spectrum; from elementary to middle and high school, as well as on the collegiate level. Aside from her love of math, she enjoys spending time with her 3 beautiful children; Rylan, Cameron, and Ashley. Other passions outside of teaching include running and coaching basketball. Rachel stated, “I look forward to sharing the Mathnasium Method with this community and I am excited to see your child’s confidence soar as they learn and discover how fun math can be!”
