"#1 Tutor on Wyzant in the summer of 2015!!!

Students awarded National Merit Commended Scholar 2022 and 2023!

Covid-19 negatively impacted student learning and amplified the need for educational support as students who had never struggled before started to fall behind for the first time. Basics were missed.

However, any educational problem can be fixed, assuming the basics are mastered. There is hope.

Above the level of hope is competence. I am referring here to the competence of a skilled tutor who has taken on hundreds of students over a fourteen-year period and turned each one of them into a high-performing scholar. When you have the knowledge, certainty, and willingness to accept challenging students and get results, hope is no longer just a byword. It's reality.

I have found that there are very specific reasons why a student would have trouble studying. Knowing these and how to remedy them opens the door to real learning. I consider it vital for all my students to be able to study independently after tutoring. This is an area that is generally neglected by modern education.

I have also found that continued student success depends heavily on parental involvement at the lower levels, while at the upper levels older students respond best when given motivation and study skills that enable them to learn without stress.

Education in the twenty-first century must equip them with the ability to sift through tons of information and extract usable facts that can lead to successful innovations. My tutoring approach seeks to increase interest and curiosity while continuously challenging the students to think for themselves. This results in an increased ability to assimilate, evaluate and even create knowledge. Most importantly, the students learn how to excel in any academic environment and they easily master new and unfamiliar topics.

Note: If you prefer to pay lower rates please consider bringing another student or taking individual lessons with my tutors under my supervision." less...
