My name is Kendra Kintz and this is my website! After quite a roller-coaster of self-discovery and pursuing a variety of career options, I am thrilled to be on the path of becoming a high school math teacher. 

​

I graduated from Oregon State University with a B.S. in Sociology and a minor in Actuarial Science. I spent my first three years of college studying to be an Industrial Engineer, thinking that was a good choice considering my love for numbers. After a change of heart, I decided to study people and explore the world before realizing my passion: teaching math. I spent a summer studying abroad in Ireland, followed by a solo backpacking expedition throughout Europe. Ever since then I have wanted to encourage others to enjoy life and rise above challenges.

​

It took a lot of searching: a job at a float spa, a non-profit organization, and a staffing agency, but after accepting a job working at a high school as an Instructional Assistant, I finally found where I belong. 

​

I now have my Master of Arts in Teaching degree as of April 2018 from Concordia University. I am certified to teach Advanced Mathematics and I cannot wait to begin. I've spent three years working as a high school math tutor and I cannot imagine a more rewarding career. I am thankful everyday that my twists and turns in life all directed me here.

​

When I'm not looking up math jokes or trying to make fun tutoring videos, I am playing soccer. I think it is important for everyone to have an outlet for stress and a hobby they enjoy. For me, soccer is my reset button!
