Hi, I’m Josie! I graduated Summa Cum Laude (3.9 GPA) in 2019 from Pepperdine University with a business administration degree and minor in applied mathematics. I also earned a certificate in conflict management and dispute resolution from Pepperdine Law School's Straus Institute. I have tutored high school students for over 6 years primarily in mathematics (Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Trig, PreCalc) and ACT/SAT math prep, as well as essay writing, APUSH, chemistry, and other subjects. I worked as a resident advisor for two years, creating community in a house of 50 first year students and developing lasting relationships. I believe the best way to learn is to teach, and encourage students to explain to me what they are learning, increasing their confidence in their knowledge and inspiring them to learn more. As important as grades are, I prioritize understanding of the material. Especially as courses build on one another – many frustrations I have seen come from confusion with one concept, which hinders growth in other areas later on. I am passionate about learning and find it incredibly rewarding to watch students grow and gain motivation to succeed.

I have taken classes through Differential Equations for my applied mathematics minor, and have 6+ years experience tutoring Algebra I and II and Geometry, and 4+ years in Precalculus, Trigonometry, and miscellaneous non-math subjects.

Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!

Thanks Josie!

After a great deal of difficulty dealing with the app, we finally connected with Josie. She was great! Patient and methodical, she was a great fit for our 17 year old girl.. Looking forward to the next session, thanks Josie!

Knowledgeable and friendly

Josie tutors my daughter and makes her feel comfortable which is not an easy task since my daughter is very shy. Josie is patient, personable and knowledgeable. We schedule with her every week. Since the tutoring began, my daughter feels more confident on her tests and her grade went up. Thank you Josie!

Fun, knowledgeable and affordable!

I don't know how we lucked up and got Josie the first time ever being on Wyzant but I tell you my daughter is a tough cookie and she almost instantly opened up to Josie and her teaching style! As a mother, Josie put me at ease with her sense of humor and professionalism! I'm sooooo very grateful to have found this site and Josie! I'll be using this for my Elementary Statistics class coming up in the Fall! Thanks so much!
