I was tutoring celebrity kids in Malibu mostly at that time. Since then, I've tutored students from 1st...

It's all too common for folks to struggle with math and even stress out about it. I hope to help more students to realize that math isn't scary. The most important thing is that we take the pressure off. The primary goal of the tutor...
