About Denise
I have been teaching basically my whole life. My little sister is 18 months younger than me and from the time she could talk I played teacher with her. I have been a professional tax preparer and professional accountant for fifty years. When we moved to Florida I didn't have to work and soon my husband said I needed a job - I was going crazy at home!! Now was my time!! I started teaching at the high school, Algebra I and II, Geometry and SAT/ACT Preparation. I LOVED it. The principal started asking for the struggling students to be in my classes and soon I was known as the Nana of the N Wing. I had 5 different clubs and every day was different and fun. Soon the principal came to me asked me to teach some English classes, I was certified in English, so I said sure. Then of course the next year she asked me to teach reading!!! That one I had to go back to school and get certified. I learned so much. Then my family needed me to move, and my new job was in Special Education helping 200 students at my middle school succeed. I managed their IEP plans and made sure they got all their accommodations to flourish. I LOVED it. Then I was ready to retire. You guessed it, time to help my students again. I keep in touch with my students - some are 30 years old now - some are 16. The best thing I did was teach, I think I will be doing this until I drop!!!

My lessons are fluid. They change every time we meet. Math is a very special subject, different than all others in that you must learn all the standards presented to you and most of all not forget them. Math is a progressive course. If you don't understand lesson G, I don't see any reason to go on to lesson H. This is a benefit of one on one or small instruction. We don't have to move on. As a teacher I did not move on when my students didn't all understand, regardless of the syllabus. Remember there are only four things you can do in math +, -, x, or /. In math you must know your multiplication tables in order to learn how to factor a binomial. Multiplication started in third grade and now we need it in 8th grade. Let's not even start with fractions!!!! I look forward to finding where you might have moved on and we can re do that lesson!!!!

Mrs. Curry was the best teacher I've ever had the joy of working with, and to this day her impact has stuck with me even though I graduated high school too long ago to admit. She is so geniunely compassionate and has such a vested interest in her students succeeding. She has a very direct approach while still making the content relatable. She is an incredible teacher, and you will be thrilled with her direction. She's a true gem of an educator, I cannot say enough good things about her.
She was my favorite teachers in high school. Always took the extra time to give individual help when needed. Very friendly and made me feel very comfortable.
The best teacher I've ever had. Cares about how her students do not just in school but how they are mentally. Good at helping really understand the material.
I was taught by Denise through English II in High School. Would highly recommend, not just because of her proficiency but her patience to guide you through your material. I have a learning disability and she never stopped caring about both my progress and my mental well-being, a rarity in early 2000's education system.
I had Denise as a teacher in highschool. I learned so much from her. She always has a smile on her face and a listening ear open. Her knowledge is strong with any subject. Wouldnt hire anyone else to turor my children.
