My teaching experience spans 33 years, and I am currently ranked in the top five in the country on Wyzant's platform.

I believe in guiding rather than instructing and by leading students on a path of discovery to learn, retain and apply, in order to avoid making the same mistakes twice. Students are responsible for ... Read more

My goal as an educator is not only to help you learn a particular subject, but to help you learn to enjoy learning.

Wesley
Premium Math Tutor with Applied Experience

- Santa Clara , California ( 95050 )
- 7 miles
I have been tutoring all levels of math for over 7 years now. I really enjoy math as a subject, and try to impart the fundamental concepts of math rather than trying to just teach the algorithms. Math really should be about understanding the logic behind it and less about route processes (we have computers for that). A bit about me. I currently do tutoring and statistical consulting full time. I worked at a Fortune 500 tech company for almost 2 years (doing math and statistics) but really e... Read more

Hi! Math is my passion. I have Bachelors of Engineering from JSS S&T University. I am friendly and fun loving tutor. I have loved teaching maths for over 4 years.
