My objective is to make a positive difference in the lives of my students. I think I manage to do that more often than not.

This is a collaborative process built on mutual trust. I started tutoring in 2004, working with high school and middle school students who needed academic support in math. The objective was to improv... Read more

Hi, my name is Joe. I'm a professional game developer for a small studio, so I have a lot of experience with the full software development stack. I graduated summa cum laude from Stony Brook University's computer science program, where I spent 4 years tutoring students in math, chemistry, and of course computer science. I think the best way to learn anything is by putting it into practice, so a tutoring lesson with me would focus around working through programming problems together. Since ... Read more
