I have a BS in Math from UMASS Amherst and an MS in Math from Salem State University. I live in Saugus and taught in the Beverly Public School System. I am familiar with differentiated instruction, the Mass State Frameworks, and students' IEPs. I am very patient and I am able to explain concepts so that you will understand them. I have taught many, many students over the last 40 years and realize that each student has his or her own learning style.

Precalculus

I am qualified to tutor Precalculus because I have studied all the courses that precede calculus: algebra I, algebra II, geometry, trigonometry, and analytic geometry. In college I took Calculus I, II, III, and IV. I have taken at least 30 math courses beyond calculus on the undergraduate level and the graduate level. I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics and a Master of Science Degree in Mathematics as well as thirty credits beyond my Master's Degree.

ACT math involves pre-algebra, algebra I, algebra II, geometry and trigonometry. I have passed all the tests in these subjects and have been approved in each of them. I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics and a Master of Science Degree in Mathematics. I have used many topics from all of these subjects while getting my Bachelor's Degree and my Master's Degree. I taught many of the concepts while I was a teacher. I have tutored students in SAT prep and have answered over 5,000 questions in WyzAnt's "Ask An Expert" section.

Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I feel qualified to tutor in trigonometry because I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics and a Master of Science Degree in Mathematics. I used trigonometry in many, many math courses that I took for my Bachelor's Degree and for my Master's Degree. When you study upper level college courses in mathematics, both on the undergraduate and the graduate level, you use higher order thinking. When you look back at high school courses, the concepts appear to become easier. Even if, for example, you don't remember an identity in trigonometry, you have the thinking capacity to find it in the book, understand it, and be able to explain it to someone.

goes above and beyond - patient, knowledgeable, and engaged

I really appreciated the fact that he was truly engaged with her thought process. When my child may (or may not) have gotten an answer correct/incorrect on a particular problem, he asked her to explain how she came to that conclusion. That is such an important part of actually learning mathematics - to have the student understand her own thought process / logical (or illogical) path towards an answer.

Casey, 2 lessons with Arthur

A patient and knowledgeable tutor.

Arthur is a great tutor. Very patent and kind. My student enjoyed her session with him and gained a better understanding of her math assignment. My student has learning disabilities so it is important for any teacher/tutor to be patient and kind. Arthur fits this profile very well.

Knowledgeable and engaging

Arthur helped my daughter with Geometry. He asked questions to gauge her understanding. I appreciate his approach. He made her an active learner. Thank you, Arthur.

Kristi, 3 lessons with Arthur

Patient and kind

I reached out to Arthur, and in 6 mins, he and my son were online. Arthur was patient, kind, and extremely knowledgeable. My son was engaged in the lesson and comfortable with him. We will certainly be reaching out to Arthur again.

Awesome teacher.

My son was very happy after having lesson with Mr. Arthur . Very quick to recognize any problems my son was having with his work. Would recommend to anybody having problems with Algebra !

Pavel, 5 lessons with Arthur

Mom, thank Arthur for me!

Yesterday my 9th grade son needed help studying for a math test that he was taking today in algebra: substitution method to solve linear equations. He felt insecure about his abilities as a math student and was apprehensive about working with someone he didn’t know because of his lack of knowledge in the subject. I reached out to Arthur at the last minute and he accommodated us right away! Within a few hours they met online and got right to work! The next day my son texted me and said, “Make sure you thank Arthur for me! I zoomed right through the test!” Confident and comfortable! I can’t ask for more than that! I’m sure we’ll be working with Arthur again over the next few years!
