Bio

I first began tutoring in high school for a program at my church. I enjoyed helping others solve problems and develop techniques to remember concepts or turn hard problems into easy problems. I believe that repetition and learning concepts is the key to learning any subject. That is my teaching strategy. I help my student understand why each step is needed.

I first began tutoring in high school for a program at my church. I enjoyed helping others solve problems and develop techniques to remember concepts or turn hard problems into easy problems. I believe that repetition and learning concepts is the key to learning any subject. That is my teaching strategy. I help my student understand why each step is needed. I love math and I have used it substantially in my undergraduate studies for my Electrical Engineering degree. I have led many study sessions in college. As an Officer in the Navy I was responsible for the training of my subordinates.

I aspire to one day become a certified teacher or a college professor. I am going to school online for a Masters Degree in Education. I personally enjoy teaching and passing on the knowledge that I have obtained. Although math is my specialty I am available for a variety of subjects. I look forward to working with all who seek knowledge.

Great Tutor!

Great 1st time session

Major was great at breaking down and helping my daughter understand the concept of Dialations in Geometry! The tips and short cuts really cut down on all the unnecessary steps that were confusing her. A few days later she took her test and was confident in doing so. She got her 1st A in her Geometry class!

Knowledgeable and patient

There were some technical difficulties that were resolved. He was consistent with needing to know the fundamental foundation of geometry which we were lacking. These fundamental principles make understanding so much easier.
