I've been teaching and tutoring for more than twenty years, and I can help you or your child learn and learn how to learn.

Rami
Algebra, Geometry, SAT Math tutor
- $50 / h
- South Hadley , Massachusetts ( 01075 )
- 15 miles
I believe that more than getting the right answer, the process of how you approach the problem is the most valuable skill you can have. Almost every week I am faced with a issue I’ve never seen before, and over time I’ve developed a solid strategy to tackle most problems, both inside/outside the classroom A little bit about me: I received my undergraduate degree from Johns Hopkins and my graduate degree from University of Houston; both in engineering. I achieved an 800 in math on the SAT ... Read more
Simone
Elementary-High School Tutor
- $35 / h
- South Hadley , Massachusetts ( 01075 )
- 20 miles
I'm Simone! I am a current student at Mount Holyoke College and I am planning to major in neuroscience with a possible minor in biology. Throughout high school, I came to understand that I appreciated the most were not the ones I necessarily was the most interested in. Instead, the teachers made the difference between an enjoyable class and an unengaging class. I sometimes found the textbook definitions and explanations unsatisfactory so those instructors that were patient and fully explained... Read more

- Sunderland , Massachusetts ( 01375 )
- 20 miles
I'm a guy whose always found math, science and computers to come naturally but I have patience and understanding for people to whom it does not. I am not only interested in the math, science and computers themselves but how people learn the concepts that are key to doing well in course work or testing.
