I've been teaching privately for over 25 years now. My specialties are Microsoft Excel, Accounting (often using Excel) and Acoustic Guitar.

Many students grow to hate math because of the way it's taught in our schools.

I have my Math degree/Comp Sci minor from Clemson University where I graduated with a 3.78 GPA. I worked for a year as a Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and SAT/ACT tutor wit... Read more

This technique has been reported in several peer-reviewed journals and I have employed it... Read more
