Vernon

Mathematics tutor (Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus)

I have been a math tutor for five years. I also worked as a middle school math teacher in a high needs school for one year. I believe in the UPS - check method of solving problems. That is: U - Understand the problem - what is being asked P - Plan how you are going to solve the problem S - Solve the problem Check - Check your solution, particularly for reasonableness I believe in giving the students the background so that they can understand how and why certain solution methods work.

Our daughter was having great difficulty in her junior year in pre-calulus and we contacted Mr. Vernon G. and he was wonderful. He was very patient and gave her great strategies to use for pre-calulus and she has made great progress. I would definitely refer Mr. Vernon G. to anyone seeking help in math and pre-calculus. We will be using his services again.

It was great to have found such a great tutor! He was able to understand what were my issues, and helped me a lot by teaching me things I was not getting in different ways till I got them. He was really patient and always very well prepared with all the material. He made sure I fully understood everything before moving on to something else, which made me feel really confident when learning. Also he always made time for my sessions even though I had a complicated schedule. I will definitely be using Vernon again, and I strongly recommend him to anyone!

Mr. Vernon is an AWESOME tutor. He will travel to you and simplify whatever math question or problem you have to ask. I highly recommend him. You won't regret it.

I contacted Vernon G. after my daughter bombed her last precalculus test. Vernon was quick to respond and came prepared to help. He was very knowledgeable and thorough in reviewing the material that was covered on her test. He was able to quickly point out any weak spots she was having. After just one session my daughter's confidence was restored and was back on track with her class. He was genuinely concerned for my daughter and even followed up on her progress. It is comforting to know that Vernon is there to help if we get into another jam. I am pleased to recommend Vernon to any parent or student in need of a tutor.

Vernon was quick to respond to my request and really put forth an effort to contact me. He drove to our house which was quite a way from his and did this on a Sunday. He was very flexible in our meeting times. My son thought he did a great job on teaching him the proper way to do algebra.


Jane G. from Austin, TX

We hired Vernon to review my son's progress in pre-Algebra and make sure he was ready to start Algebra in the fall. In just a few lessons, Vernon was able to provide a good assessment of his abilities. He reviewed some basic functions with him, gave him practice work, and offered some tips for solving problems. We only had 4 lessons, but I think it was a great foundation and we'll hire Vernon again through the school year if my son needs support. Generally, Vernon is very patient and explains things well.


Jackie B. from Pflugerville, TX

Vernon doesn't only explain how to do the things you don't know how to do. He explains why it works the way it does. He helped me with all of my Geometry. Great Tutor!


Bobby D. from Austin, TX

The material I presented to Vernon was material I read and worked problems on from a book that I was using almost a year ago. It pretty much focused on Calculus, PreCalculus and Trigonometry. My worst failing is having to do with word problems of any mathematics, especially Optimization Problems. So far, its been going well. The work studies with Vernon will vary in material, which will also include Physics problems based on Algebra II, Trigonometry and Calculus. I have decided throughout the summer until my Calculus II class begins, I am going to continue to work with Vernon and if he feels that I am not ready for Physics for Engineering Class, then I will retake the Basic Physics Class and continue to work on problems until I am ready to take a higher level one. Vernon shows lots of extensive patience with me, which is something I am definitely looking for in a tutor. He shows ways to make the problems easier than the book I am working problems on now. He also offers positive reinforcement whenever I am doing problems in stages that are correct, which is always helpful in wanting to learn the material. I continue to look forward to have a good relationship with him as time goes by. His assistance will help me get good grades in the fall. Keep up the good work Vernon!
