Though I currently work as an IT professional, I previously spent over 20 years teaching Math, Science and Computer Programming at High Schools and Colleges in the US, Argentina and Brazil and am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, I do not use rote learning methods when teaching mathematics.

My first very successful experience tutoring was during high school. The son of a family friend was doing poorly in junior high school in math and English.
