Tailored Tutoring. Lessons Designed to Fit Your Student's Needs.

I provide custom tutoring in a variety of areas from elementary math and reading to college algebra, chemistry, and history. While I am a historian by trade I am an engineer at heart. I have learned that it is easier to adapt my teaching to the needs of students rather than attempt to make them learn in a way which might be contrary to their learning style. I developed this method while an instructor in the Navy and refined it as an elementary school tutor. I love watching students get excit...

Our sixth grade son has trouble organizing his homework, and frankly it's no wonder. We gave Bryan a long list of instructions for where to look for homework assignments - assignment notebook, multiple online teacher sites (with different instructions for each), and a separate place for "missing" assignments. Bryan quickly mastered the process and helps our son each week stay on top of his work, complete it with support (but not too much), and put it in the right place so that it gets turned in. Bryan also writes up the lesson each week so we know what's happening. Our son is getting better at taking the lead on organizing his own work, and is less overwhelmed by school. Big success.

Bryan is great with my son. He takes the time to figure out WHY he struggles in certain areas, rather than just jumping in.

My children (15yr, 14yr, 12yr, and 10yr.) look forward to their tutoring sessions with Brian. They find him knowledgeable, patient, funny, and engaging. I feel comfortable they are getting a deep understanding of the writing process (essays, poetry,research and journaling) and not just a quick fix. Thanks Brian, You are God send!

Bryan wants your student to succeed. Rather than merely tutoring my Honors Chem student in Chemistry, Bryan has the insight to identify areas of weakness in my son's study skills and offer him practical and helpful tips that will help him succeed in the years to come, as well as answering his Chemistry questions. We are SO grateful that we found Bryan!
