I have a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Cal Tech and a master's degree in mathematics from Johns Hopkins University.

I have tutored and taught mathematics and science for more than twenty years, largely in one-on-one and small group situations. I have seen much in that time - how students thrive, how they don't, and how t...

Bruce was a joy to work with. He took the time to explain difficult concepts and demonstrated both patience and empathy in breaking topics down to a more simplistic level. His ability to help out in areas that didn't necessarily pertain to his specialty really helped me considerably! I highly recommend Bruce to work with - you won't be disappointed.

Bruce promptly responded to an email sent out for help with a statistics class. I am enrolled in an online program where semesters are only eight weeks long. The classes move fast and furious. He was available for a tutoring session within 48 hours of making initial contact with me. Bruce was obviously very knowledgeable about statistics and math overall. Bruce was able to explain concepts, formulas, and even showed me how to use my new TI-84 plus calculator. Bruce is professional, timely, and trustworthy.

I am so very grateful to have Bruce J. give me tutorials! I was out of school for about 15 years and have forgotten some stuff. I could have not made it without his guidance and instructions through the Statistics course I am taking in my last semester. Bruce not only is a Math genius knowing the subject but he is also creating a conducive environment, calm ambiance and lots of patience without the intimidation and the "Math fear" I have felt at the beginning of this course. I cannot thank him enough!

Bruce has a deep understanding of advanced college level calculus. He helped me get through a very challenging semester that included calculus 3. There were a couple of times that Bruce came by outside his normal time, and on very short notice, to help me when I was struggling with the material. I would not have passed the class without his help. Thanks Bruce!

While clearing up misunderstandings and wrong ideas, Bruce also saw where i was on track and gave me a boost in confidence going forward, giving clear and convincing analogous reasoning.
