About Lonicia

I am a certified OCPS elementary school teacher; so I teach all subjects, but Math holds a special place in my heart. I was the kid in school who struggled with math, until my 7th-grade year when I was placed in an intermediate math class that gave me the opportunity to slow down and catch up on concepts missed throughout the previous years. Once I caught up, my mindset changed from "I'm horrible at math" to "I LOVE math!". I genuinely believe that the most significant factor in my newfound love for math is the fact that my math teacher loved math and it showed in the way she taught her students. My philosophy is that once students get past the "I'm horrible at math", and encounter a teacher who loves math and enjoys teaching math in a way that meets students' individual needs, their mindset will shift to, "I understand math... it isn't too bad". I would be honored to be that teacher for your student.
