"I have a master's degree in Math and Computer Science, had a corporate career as a computer programmer, and for over ten years have been teaching and tutoring Math, Computer Applications / MS Office to a diverse population of students with a wide variety of educational backgrounds and experience.

I have taught and tutored students in Elementary Math, Algebra I and II, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Excel, Access, Word and PowerPoint.

My philosophy of teaching is to encourage independent thinking in my students and to show them how knowledge, obtained from lessons can be applied to practical work.

As a tutor, I'm often commended for patience and clarity of explanations and believe that math can be taught in a fun and creative way.

My schedule is pretty flexible— late afternoons and evenings are generally good, and weekends are also very good. I have a 12-hour cancellation policy, though I kindly ask that you inform me as soon as you know you won't be able to make it." less...
