Hello there! My name is Nicole Strickler and I am a graduate of Biola University. I received my degree in Psychology, with minors in Mathematics, Bible, and Spanish. I have always loved and been passionate about math, especially higher-level Calculus. I am currently pursuing a teaching credential in order to teach high school math. Along with this training, I have had many opportunities to teach and lead students in a variety of ways, some of which include tutoring math, leading a junior high small group, and running a homeless ministry at Biola. I also have a unique background in that I was homeschooled growing up at Heart Christian Academy. I am very familiar with a homeschool hybrid environment, and I am confident in navigating the unique relationships between teachers, parents, and students.
I endeavor to inspire your students to have great success in their math education, as well as have a BLAST while doing it! I will utilize games, hands-on activities, real-world examples, videos, and even crafts to motivate students to learn and study hard! I am aware that math can be a difficult subject within a homeschool environment, for parents as well as students. I will offer free tutoring each week and be fully responsible for teaching all the material in the course. Please contact me if you have any questions. I am looking forward to meeting all my new aspiring mathematicians!
