"My formal education includes a Ph.D. in applied math/physics. My career and experience as a scientist, engineer, and educator (college professor and tutor) extends over 20 and has enabled me to take a pragmatic and holistic approach to the study of math. My teaching philosophy emphasizes critical thinking and development of analytic skills over memorization, trial-and-error and excessive use of calculators. The National Society for Gifted and Talented Organization used my books (available at B&N, amazon, com, etc.) as the textbook for SAT Math courses offered through their Summer Institute for the Gifted programs.

If interested in tutoring for college admission (PSAT, SAT, ACT, SAT II Math, GRE, GMAT, LSAT, MCAT) or math (ALL levels, including AP's, statistics, college calculus), contact me and I promise to make you understand why math should be important to you no matter what you decide to pursue in college and beyond and help you improve your grades and/or test scores." less...
