I like to see the lights go on as students understand math.
My emphasis is on student understanding as opposed to memorization. I’ve had 25 successful and rewarding years of experience teaching math and science at the high school level. I’ve worked in public schools and private schools. I also have an extensive background in working with elementary and middle school students in all subjects. I have a Master’s degree from UCLA in education, and I’ve taught methods classes to beginning teachers.
Over the years I’ve used many strategies and techniques …

Testimonials
James F. from Beverly Hills, CA Lifesaver. Great teacher. Turned an "F" in math in the sixth grade to a "B" in math so far in the seventh grade.
Nancy B. from Glendale, CA Gwen R. has worked her magic on my 10 year old son. He was a poor reader and consequently didn't want to try for years. Over the last two months, with Gwen's gentle guidance, he is a changed kid. The call I got from him last week -- "mom I love reading now" was music to my ears! It was a complete transformation. He is now almost finished with his second Harry Potter book and wants me to buy the entire series for him. I can't express strongly enough, that if it wasn't for Gwen, this would never have happened. He is very proud of himself and his new found ability and to top it off, he and Gwen went to the bookstore and found a bookmark that reads "Don't judge a book by its movie." He loves it and it's particularly meaningful because now he realizes that there is so much more detail that can be covered in a book. Thanks Gwen. You have made a profound difference in the confidence and ability of this little boy. We appreciate your help.
Leo S. from Redondo Beach, CA Gwen is tutoring my 11-year old daughter in mathematics in preparation for the ISEE exam. She is obviously very experienced and has many innovative approaches for explaining a number of math concepts. She is also patient and very personable. If you need math remediation or want to move ahead in mathematics, she is a sure bet.
