I have strong Spanish conversational, writing and readi... Read more

Come down with a bad case of Math?
Most people don't like math. This makes doing it almost impossible. There are usually a few reasons for this: bad experience at school, never seeing the purpose, people withholding the whole picture for later development and never coming back to it because of tests and such. I start by finding the main culprit to this distress, and start solving problems for the student. Not math problems, but base problems in their understanding. After some skill building and drilling on the right areas we ... Read more

Upbeat Tutor of Many Good Things!
ADD/ADHD isn't "exotic" any more. The diagnosis isn't just limited to that extra-busy little boy in the first row. Diagnosed or not, many of us struggle all day, every day, to keep focused, to keep organized, and accomplish something. The good news is that society understands ADD/ADHD so much better these days. An abundance of practical, successful Read more

Let Me Help You Succeed
Empathy with you, my student, is paramount. I make it clear from the beginning that I care for you, that I want you to master whatever we are studying together, that I will work hard to find and use your best paths to knowledge. A bit of subject-matter-related humour often helps. I have high expectations when I work as a tutor but I will never make my students suffer. I am an intellectually curious person; I play to whatever degree of intellectual curiosity I find in students. I aim to m... Read more

I am especially qualified to work with middle and high school s... Read more
