John: Riverdale tutor

Certified Tutor

After completing my MBA and spending several years in the corporate sector with amazing businesses like Caterpillar and the Swagelok Companies, I earned my secondary teaching license with a 4.0 GPA. Once that was done, I dove into the realm of education where I have since taught everything from first grade through college, including test preparation, business, communication, English, Writing, AP Lit, Speech/Public Speaking, Theater and more. In this capacity, I have won several teaching awards and two national awards as a Center Director and Area Manager for the Huntington Learning Centers. As a true servant leader, my goal is to inspire others and help them to recognize their full potential, and that includes those with special needs. In fact, I am also an Advocacy Leader for the Profound Autism Alliance, and I have acted as an educational rights advocate and as an ADA Officer. That said, I would love to work with you and/or your child!
