My goal is not just to help students with a tough class or a standardized test, but also to teach them learning skills they can apply to the next challenge. When you work with me, we're not just practicing algebra (or whatever); we're practicing the kinds of behaviors that will help you succeed in future math classes. I work with students to match their learning style (visual, auditory, learning by doing, etc.).

I have taught high school and college level course for over a decade. I believe that there are common themes that students posses that can impede their learning.

I believe that all students can learn whatever you offer...

...adorable stories about his toddler daughter before jumping into calculus. Every lesson would start with laughter, and continue with learning. He set reasonable daily goals while giving us opportunities to exceed expectations if we had the drive to do such. I learned a lot from him.
