About Sherry
With 40 years of experience in education as a teacher, curriculum developer, and instructional designer, I bring a wealth of knowledge to each tutoring session. I hold a Ph.D. in Curriculum & Instruction from North Carolina State University, a Master's degree in Education from Harvard University, and a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from Sweet Briar College. My passion for education and experience working with elementary students allows me to creatively tailor lessons to meet each child’s unique learning style and needs. I’ve developed math curricula, led professional development for teachers, and collaborated with educational organizations such as the National Science Foundation, Harvard University, and the U.S. Department of Education. My extensive work with online and in-person learning communities, as well as my experience creating interactive math tools for elementary students, gives me a deep understanding of how young learners think and how to engage them in meaningful, fun, and effective ways. I am committed to helping students not only succeed academically but also build lasting confidence and a love for math.

I specialize in providing personalized math tutoring for students in Grades 1-6. Each lesson is tailored to your child’s unique learning style and needs, whether they require extra support to catch up or are ready to explore more advanced topics. I focus on making math meaningful, relevant, and most importantly—fun!
My one-on-one sessions create a nurturing environment where your child can master math concepts at their own pace, building confidence and reducing math anxiety. I believe every child can succeed in math with the right approach, and I work to make sure they feel supported and empowered during every session.
In our lessons, we use interactive activities, games, and puzzles to make learning engaging while fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Alongside these activities, I incorporate rich problem contexts and tasks that encourage deep thinking and the verbalization of ideas. Students are challenged to explore important mathematical concepts in depth, helping them develop a flexible approach to numbers and real-world problem-solving.
Whether your goal is to boost your child's grades, increase their confidence, or nurture a genuine passion for math, I am here to help them achieve their full potential through a customized learning journey.

My 9 yo daughter loves working with Sherry. She started virtual weekly tutoring sessions about 2 years ago, and has made continual progress in that time. It’s great to see her gain skills and confidence, and actually enjoy doing academic work. Her teachers have also noted her increased level of engagement and enthusiasm during math lessons at school.
We live in the western part of the state so all of the sessions have been virtual. The Zoom format, and using Bitpaper has been easy and effective. The rapport and connection Sherry has built with my daughter during the virtual sessions is as strong as if sessions were in-person, and is as much a testament to Sherry’s skill as an educator as to modern technology. We plan to continue working with Sherry, and are so grateful the virtual format makes it possible.Sherry is a fantastic tutor and we are lucky to have found her! She tutored our daughter throughout 5th grade, and she has returned for 6th grade tutoring. Our daughter went from struggling with her material and lacking confidence, to embracing its challenges and excelling in this subject area. The benefits to our daughter are evidenced by both her dramatically improved test scores and more importantly, her new found confidence! She now approaches math as a puzzle to be solved rather than a subject to shy away from. Our third grader has also started with Sherry this year. He looks forward to and loves his tutoring sessions. Sherry is an exceptional instructor. She pares her lessons with hands-on activities and real world applications that the kids love. Both the kids report that she makes math fun!
️️️️Sherry was an absolute lifesaver for our daughter! Before working with Sherry, our daughter struggled with math, and her confidence in the subject was at an all-time low. However, Sherry completely turned things around.
What makes Sherry truly exceptional is the way she tailors her lessons to her students. She took the time to learn about our daughter’s interests and incorporated them into math problems, making the subject feel more relevant and engaging. It was amazing to see our daughter go from dreading math to actually looking forward to her sessions!
Sherry is also incredibly patient and positive. She never talks down to her students, and she has a wonderful way of making mistakes feel like part of the learning process instead of something embarrassing. Our daughter felt safe and encouraged during every session, which was so important for building her self-esteem.
And we can’t forget to mention her therapy support dog, Stella, who sometimes attended the lessons! This was such a fun and calming addition to the tutoring, making the environment even more welcoming.
We are so grateful for Sherry’s kindness, creativity, and expertise. Thanks to her, our daughter is not only improving in math but also in her overall confidence. We highly recommend Sherry to anyone looking for a tutor who truly cares about her students.View more recommendations
