Working together to improve your understanding and your scores. I bring enthusiasm, experience and commitment to my tutoring. I will assess your needs quickly and adjust my tutoring style to accommodate those needs. I develop worksheets and practice tests that specifically benefit those I tutor. I succeed in helping students improve grades because I teach problem solving and test taking techniques as well as subject matter. I love connecting with my students and it is a pleasure to see them...

Joe has met with my son three times and is very patient and encouraging. My son is struggling with many of the fundamental concepts of Chemistry, and Joe has a great way of explaining the information in an easy-to-learn and relatable way. I am very pleased with how the sessions have gone and will continue to use Joe to assist as needed.

Joe is one of the best tutors we have ever had! He is an intelligent chemist and an excellent educator. My kid loved to meet him and the help that my kid got in the AP chemistry study was invaluable. Joe can always give a clear explanation on any questions my kid asked. He cares about the student and he is flexible. I highly recommend Joe to anyone who is looking for a great Chemistry tutor.

Even with one monthly meeting, our tenth grader benefits a great deal, our girl is seriously thinking to choose chemistry/pharmacy as her college major now. Joe is with great knowledge and experience, is flexible, professional and after all he cares about the students. This combination is really hard to find in Rochester, we probably will hire him more frequently summer time and this time on AP chemistry.

Amazing! Readily available. Applies course material to different learning styles VERY WELL. I really struggled with chemistry before I met him. He made it fun and understandable to someone lacking a strong science background. He is patient and encourages you to do the work/practice. Honestly can't say enough positive things about my overall experience with chemistry because of Joe.

Very helpful and easy to contact. He was willing to go the extra mile to make sure I was prepared and confident for my exams. He was available to help as much as possible. Joe provided many helpful techniques and handouts. I will be asking for his help for organic chem 2. I highly recommend Joe as a tutor.

We've only had one lesson with Joe but it's clear that we will call on him again when needed. A retired high school chemistry teacher, he knows the material cold and understands how to communicate it in different ways to students. Joe spent 1.5 hours with my daughter, helping to catch her up on material she missed while out on extended sick leave. During that time, he was able to cover multiple classes worth of material. If you need chemistry help, contact him today with our recommendation.

Joe helped me understand a third of a semester's worth of organic chem in just 1.5 hours. Every time we've met I've been extremely successful in class- I got a 92 on my exam that we studied for! Average was 74. I'm very happy.
