I am a retired Naval officer and teacher. I was in the Navy for a 26-year career which included diplomatic tours in the Philippines and in Venezuela. After retiring I chose to become a teacher because of my love for learning and love of working with children. I was and still am a certified teacher in the State of New Mexico with endorsements in mathematics, science and language arts. I have taught physical science, chemistry, and AP chemistry at the high school level and earth and physical s...

I am a National Board Certified Teacher having completed my boards in 2009. I have worked over the past 16 years with children at all levels. I have studied extensively in the area of child psychology lacking only my practical application to receive my master's in the subject. Having been a soccer coach for many years, I have always been willing to take an autistic or Aspergers child on my team and working with them to succeed. Interventions with these children required finding their method of learning and using it to the child's maximum advantage.

Jeff consistently goes above & beyond to help my son understand the chemistry and geometry material he is learning. He is always punctual, uses every minute of our time teaching and is very positive. I would HIGHLY recommend him for tutoring. My son is in 10th grade and working with Jeff has been an excellent fit!

Jeffrey is an excellent tutor who tailors his approach to meet the needs of the student. He teaches in a way they understand, grasp it easily, and they begin to excel at their work. Jeffrey tutored my daughter for the ASVAB and after 7 sessions she took the test and passed it with a much HIGHER score, which assisted in the job she selected. I recommend him if you have a child struggling in math or any subject. Hire Jeffrey for tutoring and you will not be disappointed and you will see progress and confidence improve in your child.

Jeff is helping my son in algebra 2. He is the 4th tutor we have had in the last 2 years. Jeff by far is the best. I only wish we would have found him 2 years ago. I recommend Jeff to any student struggling. He is awesome and my son really enjoys his methods of teaching.

Jeffrey knows how to get through to my 13 year old to help him understand math. He has really done a tremendous job! Jeffrey is patient, easy to reach by phone or email. He has taken the time to understand how my son learns and has molded the tutoring lessons so that my son gets the most benefit from his tutoring. My son likes Jeffrey and looks forward to his lessons. Thank you, Jeffrey!

Mr. L. is an excellent tutor. My 13yr old son was having great difficulty with Algebra (multiplying and dividing radicals) and had significantly fallen behind. My son took a test and received a 20%! He had a tutoring session with Mr. L. and was allowed a retake on the test, he achieved an 80%! Mr. L. was great at figuring out where my son was having difficulty and why. Mr. L. even had my son laughing through the lesson. Mr. L. not only understands the language of math but also how to teach it to his students. He was extremely patient and emphasized working out the problems, using the formulas and taking good notes. My son was not thrilled with having to be tutored but he really liked working with Mr. L. My son was not taking notes, and continued to try and do the math in his head. Needless to say he found himself not understanding the next chapters of Algebra to the fullest and although he was barely passing he could do better. I called Mr. L. and requested a tutoring session with very short notice. Mr. L. was easy to reach by phone and was available for another tutoring session. I would and I'm sure I will be calling Mr. L. again in the future when my son needs help with math. If you or your child is struggling and needs a tutor in Math I highly recommend Mr. L. Thank you Mr. L.

Jeffrey has been extremely helpful to my daughter. Today was her fourth lesson and it was wonderful to see a smile of confidence on her face. She stated that today she finally feels like it makes sense to her and she feels like she can do it without fear of not knowing what she was doing and that she would never understand algebra. He has worked at her pace and teaches algebra in a way that makes sense to her. I appreciate him giving my daughter back the confidence to go to her High School algebra class.

Today was my first lesson with Jeff and wow I am beyond thankful to him! I've always had a fear of math and didn't think I would ever be able to even begin to understand it and Jeff changed all that. He is truly a great tutor, patient, understanding and knowledgeable. Very thankful to him! Thank you so much Jeff!!! Looking forward to my next lesson. God bless.

He helped me learn more about the topics I need to know about. It was a good lesson and I feel more prepared for the topics now.
Courtney M. from Albuquerque, NM
Jeffrey is helping me to think through the problems better and has given me some great pointers for solving problems and taking tests. Thank you!!
Richard S. from Albuquerque, NM
With just the first lesson he has helped me become more confident already with the areas I have trouble with.

This past session we were working on the math section of the test. The ideas and information he gave me is improving my confidence.
Danielle M. from Rio Rancho, NM
First meeting with Jeffrey for ASVAB/Math/English, he had a wealth of information and resources that he shared with my daughter. He is patient, professional, and helps my daughter relate to the subject in a way she can understand. My daughter is now excited and optimistic about her future. Looking forward to more sessions!

He really understands the material, and he's really good at explaining it in a way that makes it easy to understand.

Jeff is a very knowledgable tutor. He helped me understand some Algebra 2 issues in a very short amount of time. Highly recommend.... A+
Tiffany M. from Rio Rancho, NM
Flexible and also has my son go through several similar problems after the lesson to make sure he's got it down strongly. Thank you!
Seth S. from Rio Rancho, NM
Mr. Jeff met with me twice before taking my ACT for the 3rd time! I felt much more confident this time around! Those first math scores were 15 and 16. I know I did much better with Jeff's focus.
