Bio
Hi, I’m Gypsy Biller! With over 20 years of experience, a BA from UCLA, and dual Master’s degrees in Chemistry and Secondary Education from UPenn, I help K-12 math and science students thrive. I am a former National Board Certified teacher and built an AP Chemistry program with an 85% pass rate. As a patent-holding inventor, I love bringing real-world science to life! I firmly believe every student can learn in a safe, supportive environment. I use familiar analogies like counting socks on a baseball team before ever counting atoms, I love turning complex math and science into a fun language that builds confidence in my students. As a neurodivergent educator, I bring a structured, honest, and direct presence. I build an accountable community rooted in mutual respect, humor, and vulnerability. While I have a strong "teaching mom" presence, students quickly learn I’m a big softy who is deeply invested in their ultimate success.
