About Mrs. Jones
I am a teaching veteran of 34 years, with a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Master of Education in Secondary Mathematics from the University of Georgia. I taught high school mathematics in public schools in Georgia for four years. I also coached the Academic Team for competitions and the Parliamentary Procedure Team with the Future Business Leaders of America.
When my first daughter was born, I became a stay-at- home mother. Our family soon had two girls and two boys. I taught my four children from pre-school through twelfth grade. All four graduated from the Academy of Home Education through Bob Jones University with honors, which was earned by scoring in the top 10% nationally on the ACT test. My pictures are from three graduations, one son from high school and the other from college. In 2018 my older daughter got married, my older son earned his Masters Degree in Automotive Engineering from Clemson University, and he got married. It was a very busy year for our family!
Since I left full time teaching, I have tutored many students from public, private, and homeschools, including teaching homeschool
co-op classes. I specialize in general math, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, pre-calculus, trigonometry, and consumer math.
I also tutor for the math sections of the ACT and SAT tests.
Now that my children are grown, I have more time to devote to teaching and tutoring students in mathematics. While I enjoyed teaching in the classroom, I enjoy meeting the individual needs of the student in one-on-one tutoring. I can adapt my teaching methods to the individual, and continue to teach a concept until it is mastered. My Pre-Algebra students can tell you that I will even sing silly songs to help them remember important concepts!
I joined High School Math Live in February 2018 as the tutor. In addition to tutoring, I teach Pre-Algebra and Consumer Math during the school year, and Brush Up Math Workshops during the summer.
