Bernardo
Mathematics and Computer Programming Tutor
I'm a college professor with 25+ years of experience teaching mathematics and computer programming. My favorite subjects include precalculus, calculus, linear algebra, optimization and numerical analysis. I believe the only way to learn mathematics or computer programming is by working through many exercises and problems. There's no way around this. It doesn't matter how well a lecture is presented or how good the teacher is. If you don't do the work yourself, you'll probably not succeed. ...

Bernardo is a great teacher - knowledgeable and patient. He excels at identifying a student's weak points and working to improve in those areas.
Darby M. from Del Mar, CA
Very accommodating to my son's athletic schedule. He's helped Jackson so much. His grade has gone from an 81% to 89% and rising. Very grateful.
Alexander N. from Vista, CA
I was taking a vector calculus course at UCSD over the summer and needed help with some of the more difficult material affiliated with the course. Bernardo was patient enough to go over problems outside of tutoring hours to make sure he understood the material when we met for each lesson. I've been through my fair share of tutors and Bernardo has been one of the most patient and diligent. He cared more about helping me learn and less about the time. Highly recommended by a chemical engineering student. Thanks again Bernardo!

Bernardo is a very intelligent tutor with previous teaching experience. He helped me with my Calculus BC class. He does a great job showing multiple ways of solving certain problems to help students find the easiest way for them. He is reliable and I'm glad I chose him as my tutor.
Olivia R. from Encinitas, CA
Bernardo is a polished professional with extensive experience in teaching and a patient approach that proved invaluable in enabling our granddaughter to overcome her difficulties in geometry. Next time we will be sure to draw on his knowledge and teaching skill earlier in the school year in order to insure her confidence in math.

Bernardo is a wonderful math tutor, hands down. He tutored me for College Matrix Algebra, and without him I would not have received the grade I wanted, a B! For me, this is outstanding, considering I had a very strict teacher and as math just is not my strong point. He is polite, patient, cordial, professional, has a good sense of humor, and most of all--worked at my pace. He also came up with practice problems. Any trouble or problem areas we had, we would go over even more thoroughly. We went over problems step-by-step, and he also had me try some problems on my own once we went over a few and reviewed a chapter.
Bill K. from Carlsbad, CA
I have been extremely impressed and can't say enough to recommend Bernardo as a math tutor! He has helped me on graduate level course work that is quite advanced and I am very pleased to have him as a resource. He is very patient and passionate about making sure his students attain a solid grasp of the concepts. He teaches by example, communicates very clearly, and is a joy to work with. He is very professional, reliable and responds promptly to inquires for appointments. Bernardo is simply superb!
Nav A. from Carlsbad, CA
Bernardo is super! My son likes his wit and style. He is a very patient teacher. I recommend Bernardo to tutor anyone.
Susan F. from Carlsbad, CA
I worked with Bernardo for 2 weeks to prepare for Mira Costa's Intermediate Algebra Test. Prior to that I hadn't studied math for over 10 years. Bernardo was an exceptional tutor. He was able to answer all of my questions and gave me helpful tips and strategies for solving different problems. I passed my exam with flying colors and am grateful to Bernardo for all of his patience and help. I would highly recommend working with him.
Ingrid D. from San Diego, CA
Bernardo is very knowledgeable about math. He is helping me with Numerical Analysis and he has been able to make me understand the subject better than my professor. He is great!
George R. from Encinitas, CA
Bernardo's years of experience shine in his patience and tutoring support for Algebra II. Having years of teaching experience allows him to determine where his pupils strengths and weakness are and adjust each session to help my grand daughter grasp the concepts by example and develop the skills to excel in the course thru exercises.
Shirly C. from San Diego, CA
I feel very lucky to have Bernardo helping our son through Algebra. Bernardo explains it very well. Thank you so much. My son mentioned after Bernardo left that he really likes him and he makes algebra easier to understand. Thank you Bernardo!!! For the last lesson I asked my son how his lesson went. He said unbelievable. He told me algebra seems so much easier to understand now, but he feels like he is wasting his time in the classroom because his teacher does not know how to explain the math and now he could understand why he had so much trouble before Bernardo. My son and I both recommend Bernardo very highly and he is so worth way more than what he charges. He is the best tutor we have ever had.
Tam T. from San Diego, CA
I have Mr. Bernado tutoring my son. We are very happy the way he is teaching him. Thank you.

Bernardo helped my two high school students with Honors pre-calculus and Algebra 2. We would recommend him to any parent whose child struggles or need extra help with their math work.
Weston C. from Carlsbad, CA
I am taking a business calculus class. Bernardo is very patient, helpful and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him. 5 stars!
Joan P. from Carlsbad, CA
He is very patient and thorough and explains concepts very well. This is the 3rd lesson and we have been very happy.
Dana M. from Carlsbad, CA
Bernardo taught me college-level Calculus 2. I liked Bernardo's tutoring methods within every meeting. He was very empathetic and willing to stop and answer any questions and clarifications I needed. He was very excellent and I would recommend him to anybody who needs help with the same subject.
Jo M. from Carlsbad, CA
I was worried before seeing Professor Bernardo about my calculus exam. He was able to help with the chain rule and implicit differentiation. He breaks down the theory so that it becomes simple to see. It was just my first tutoring session with him. I will see him again!
Victoria N. from Encinitas, CA
My son loves how Bernardo tutors him with his Calculus BC. He is patient and explains the reasoning behind the way things are in a logical sense. Because he is so knowledgeable, he can explain in different ways and can show concepts visually as well as auditorily. He shows his excitement for math which makes it much more enjoyable to learn. He always tries to be available if he can because he knows that teenagers schedules are so tough so has come late at night and in a moments notice if he can. Really wonderful Math tutor and person. You will definitely not be disappointed with his help!

Bernardo is an excellent tutor. He is kind and patient, and Bernardo helped my son understand some concepts he was struggling with. I would highly recommend Bernardo.
Ian S. from Poway, CA
He explained things simply to me and at my pace, was able to answer all my questions. Will definitely use again.
Louie B. from Del Mar, CA
Bernardo works with my 2 boys on very different levels of math... Algebra 2 and AP Calculus BC. He is very effective with both of them, communicates the concepts very well, and they enjoy their time with him.
Ryan D. from Orland Park, IL
Overall a great tutor, who knows a lot about optimization in MatLab, and can help you figure out almost everything you may be working on utilizing MatLab, at least within the optimization spectrum.
