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. My approach to tutoring is simple: I try to understand how a student is thinking. This can be done by sharing how I am thinking and invite the student to do the same. 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.

- Stamford , Connecticut ( 06902 )

History was my favorite subject as a kid, and my undergraduate major at Harvard.

Ten years ago I entered the teaching profession, and now I split my time between classroom work and tutoring. Whether it's the SAT, math homework, an English essay or an AP Global review, I enjoy tutoring for the feeling of getting to know my students, observing how they learn,... Read more
