As a successful businessperson for over 25 years, I led a team of 30 textbook editors, provided strategy consulting to executives in dozens of companies, and taught classes and individual adults in business and recreational settings. In my experience, success in life after school depends on the effective use of language and numbers, two skills that many students have not fully developed. As a tutor, I always start by listening and building rapport with my student, and I tailor my approa... Read more

Is math and science hard for you? I'd like to help! I've been a practicing scientist for over 30 years, working as a chemist in the pharmaceutical industry doing "drug discovery". That's using organic chemistry to discover new substances that could become medicines. Science and math have always fascinated me, and I love to share them and explain them to other people. There are few things more satisfying to me than seeing that "aha!" moment when a student really understands a problem.... Read more
