Michael
Interdisciplinary Educator: Physical Science and its requisite Math.
I understand what it's like to feel completely lost, or just need some extra guidance. I worked in youth mental health (BA in Psychology) before returning to college to study physics after taking no math courses for about 9 years. I had to re-teach myself high school math before starting on my journey, after which I was thrown into high level math courses in rapid succession. I know what it's like to be intimidated by the material and unsure of my abilities. Online self-help resources were v... Read more

I am currently employed as a professional tutor at Dutchess Community College and work with approximately 12 students a week.

Also, many went from having F's to solid B's in a few short weeks. As a professional tutor at Dutc... Read more

Learning a second language is a hard thing to do. Learning it well enough for academic success, including writing and presenting, is even harder. I love working one-on-one with students in tutoring sessions where we can focus on the student's specific problems. Whether the problems are grammar, writing, reading, or listening abilities, I can help. I'll keep things challenging but not so challenging that you will feel overwhelmed. I'm only just starting with WyzAnt but have been teach... Read more
