Cindy Bernstein
Geometry
Math Department Chair
Hi! My name is Cindy Bernstein. I first began teaching at New West in 2018, and I am so happy to be returning for a new school year!
I grew up in New York, not far from New York City. I received my undergraduate degree in Mathematics and my Master’s degree in Curriculum Development, both from the State University of New York at Albany. I taught in New York for a few years after graduating and then experienced quite a few interesting and exciting years in the business world, before returning to my passion, which is being in the classroom with my students.
My husband and I moved from New York to Los Angeles in 1999. We have one daughter who was born and raised in California. When I’m not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter, taking yoga and spin classes, reading, and playing in the kitchen.
I am the New West High School Geometry teacher and the Math Department Chairperson. My goal is to help each of my students to be confident and successful and to have some fun with Math. I am looking forward to getting to know my students and having a great year together!
