Maggie Verst

I was raised in Alexandria, Kentucky, a small suburb outside of Cincinnati. I come from a family of teachers – my mother was a teacher at the elementary school I attended! I learned very early on that I enjoy working with students in a small setting, and I love helping them achieve their lightbulb moment. After I graduated from Ohio State, I decided to attend Notre Dame for my Master’s degree in Education. During this program, I attended classes during summer and virtually during the school year, while teaching Algebra 2 and Geometry at a high school in Tampa, FL.

My favorite part of tutoring is seeing students set goals for themselves and being able to see and assist them in reaching these goals. I know all students are capable of being successful in a math classroom, and I will always encourage them to take risks and make mistakes so that they can grow as math students. I believe in an “I Do, We Do, You Do” model, where I will show students a problem or two, and allow them to try a few on their own where I can identify common mistakes. Once those mistakes are discussed with the student, I let them try a few completely without my help. I believe that encouragement, dedication, and care are the core of my tutoring practice.
