My name is Hector, I'm an Engineer and love teaching languages and Math specially Algebra.I really like helping students and professionals to get better and reach their goals. Spanish is my native language and I have been teaching English for a while, from kids to adults with very good results. As for math I helped my friends at school and ended up teaching other students as well, I try to make it easy and fun. I use a step by step method to explain any topic, and it has provided very good results, because on the books or at school sometimes they don't include the whole process. I adapt myself to the student and not viceversa.

I enjoy very much seeing the progress of my students and see their confidence increase, to me that is very rewarding.

Great tutor, provides step by step explanations!

I was very frustrated with my College algebra course. In my class, the professor would start the equation and before I could blink, the answer was on the board (magically). All of the important step by step information in the middle was not explained. Hector has been very patient with me and he provides the step by step instruction that I need. He is easy to contact and responds quickly. Also, he meets with me on the weekends and late at night after I get out of work. (This is hard to find in a tutor) He definitely gets 5 out of 5 stars in my book!

Brittany, 12 lessons with Hector

Knowledgeable, professional, and passionate

Hector spent two hours working with my highschool son on college algebra. He has given him a better understanding, and therefore, I can see he is more confident in doing his homework. Hector is passionate about his teaching which makes it more enjoyable for my son to learn! We have already set up another secession!

Coleen, 10 lessons with Hector

Knowledgeable tutor

Hector is giving my student the confidence he needs to be a successful learner in math. My student is feeling more at ease with his virtual learning as well as the face to face time at school. Hector has given my student the conviction to ask for help in class.

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

8th grade Algebra. Hector helped my son understand the lesson and he is very patient and knowledgeable. He provided him with written work that he can use as references to do his work.

John, 14 lessons with Hector

Very good first session.

Hector and I went over numerical info: Numbers, dates, addresses, metric conversions. We went over proper spelling of numbers, correct use of days, months and years, liquid measurements, distance, directions, medicine dosages, etc. Very helpful and practical for what I need to learn.

Kelly, 17 lessons with Hector

Perfect

Just what my son needed. Would definitely recommend Hector, and we plan to use him going forward if/when necessary. I could sense my son's relief after the tutoring session this evening... something that had him confused is now crystal clear. Much appreciated!

Hector always is eager to discuss and complete the work I bring to accomplish. He is very positive and precise in his work with me.

Stephanie, 12 lessons with Hector

Friendly and Funny

We had our first lesson with Hector. He came prepared with a test to gage our knowledge, a personality to inspire, and the humor to pull it all together. Hector appears to have a strong understanding of how to teach Spanish and we are looking forward to learning.

With Hector's help Mackenzi has brought her grade up from -C to a B. She is not so confused about what she is doing and has become more confident.

Lynette, 13 lessons with Hector

Spot on Tutor.

Hector knew exactly what he was doing to fill in the gaps of My Girlfriend (Blue) learning of the Spanish language. Really worked with her and stepped her through the ins and outs of her previous test. Then pointed out items to be worked on.
