I really enjoy working with students to grasp and master math concepts for Calculus, Pre-Calc, Trig, and Algebra. I am passionate about breaking down complex problems into clear steps that are easily understood. I have helped hundreds of students gain skill and confidence in their math classes. I draw on my 10 years as a math tutor working with students 1:1 as well as my 5 years teaching math at a private school. Additionally, I have experience in a math lab setting, where students bring thei...

discrete math

I have taken math through Calculus III and Differential Equations in college, and have a Master's Degree in Computer Engineering, and I have used math in my work for many years. Additionally, I have taught a College Math course at a private high school, which covers a variety of concepts, many similar to Discrete Math.


college counseling

I work in a private school and regularly counsel parents and their students regarding preparation for college and preparing for the admission process. I am knowledgeable in the areas of writing college essays, placement testing, and preparing for college interviews.

Bill, you have done excellent work with Jordan. He is actually more confident in his ability figure out his Algebra homework and is looking forward to the next time you meet.


Jan C. from Richardson, TX

Very patient and thorough with answering questions. Let her work through problems so she hopefully will do amazing on Friday's test!!


Sheree R. from Plano, TX

My son really likes Bill for a tutor. He is very patient and doesn't make him feel stupid when he doesn't get something. I would definitely recommend him.


Christine C. from Dallas, TX

Bill is now working with my second child on the math portion of the SAT. We are beyond pleased with his style as both of my kids understand his explanations. Highly recommend.


Jackie H. from Rowlett, TX

Bill is an excellent tutor! He is very patient and can really explain Precalculus in a way that my son can understand. He has helped my son bring his grade up in that class. My son was making a D in Precal so we were in desperation mode when we heard about WyzAnt and found Bill! My son had a lot of catching up to do but Bill was patient and quickly discovered what my son knew and didn't know. After several sessions, he had helped my son catch up to where the class was. Like so many other reviews of Bill, I only wish we had found WyzAnt and Bill sooner! I have an older son who could have used him in high school also. We are continuing to work with Bill on any Precal that comes up that my son has trouble with AND Bill is tutoring him in ACT prep now also. Bill is also a great communicator with parents as he is willing to work with you around kids' busy schedules to find what fits into your life and budget.


Lisa H. from Rowlett, TX

We have had several math tutors work with our daughter and I am amazed at how well she learns from Bill. She is in IB math and it is very challenging. The tutor has had approximately 5 sessions with our daughter and she has gone from being totally lost in calculus to completely understanding it. He is an excellent tutor and I highly recommend him.


Jill A. from Dallas, TX

My daughter needed to raise her ACT math and science scores to increase her overall score from 28 to a minimum of 30 to be considered for Early Decision admission to a top 20 university. After just 4 sessions with Bill, she took the test again and made a 31, applied ED and was accepted. The increase in her ACT score allowed her to be seriously considered, and without that score there probably would have been a different outcome. Bill was extremely reliable, flexible, and responsive. When working with my daughter, he explained things in a simple, logical way that was really easy to understand. She had worked with other tutors in the past that were much more expensive but never felt that the sessions were helpful. She always left her sessions with Bill feeling better prepared and more confident about the test, and knows that the help that he gave her was the key to her increased score. I highly recommend Bill!!


Angela M. from Richardson, TX

Bill has a way with young people in addition to being an excellent teacher. He is also good at making sure our sessions happen on the right day with respect to tests and other goals. I wish we'd found him sooner, but thank goodness we have him now.


Jeannette C. from Mckinney, TX

Michael is really enjoying his sessions with Bill. Bill teaches to make sure that Michael understands the lower level concepts and then stretches him to do better on the higher level concepts. Would highly recommend for PSAT/SAT tutoring.


Jeri S. from Allen, TX

Bill did an amazing job tutoring our son. Bill was very patient and easy to work with. Our son's scores went way up, and we have Bill to thank for helping and encouraging him! He is honest in his assessment and what he thinks your student will need. He doesn't ask or push for anything more. If the need arose, we would definitely hire Bill again!


Dee N. from Plano, TX

Bill tutored my son for his ACT Math and Science, as well as his pre-cal. His pre-cal grade went up by 8 points. He made 29 on both Math and Science ACT. Bill was patient and easy to work with. I would definitely use him again.


Tracie W. from Rowlett, TX

Bill was extremely helpful and accommodating to our needs. After 2 and 1/2 hours of tutoring my 11th grader proclaimed, " I have learned more in the last two hours than I learned all year!" I would recommend Bill to a donkey. Not saying my son is a donkey, but when a son or daughter is just lost in a subject and having someone like Bill helping them over the hump, gives a parent so much hope.


Raya K. from Allen, TX

I was looking for a tutor for my niece to improve her SAT score and after working with a couple of SAT Math tutors on WyzAnt I found Bill to be outstanding. He responded to my emails quickly, gave me an overview of his plan for the first lesson which I appreciate because it set my expectations, he then did a followup email after the first meeting and detailed a plan of what the student needs to work on and next steps. My niece said that Bill was very nice and encouraging and she is looking forward to working with him. Part of what I look for in a tutor is his timely response, his impression on the student and if he has a plan on what needs to be done to achieve a goal and so far Bill has been outstanding. Update: Since working with Bill my niece has improved her math score by 100 points and today she got accepted to the university she wanted. We couldn't be happier. We owe a lot of her success to Bill and I just want to say to him THANK YOU! we truly appreciate your work, advise and encouragement.

Bill has been working with my son to improve his SAT Math scores. Bill's style is one that doesn't involve a radical system but addresses how our son is working on math problems. Bill has helped with keeping pace on the SAT so he is able to complete the section in the time that is allotted. Bill's feedback is very constructive and positive that help reinforce his math skills. My son struggles in Math and Bill's style is very refreshing to the point he feels confident in his problem solving skills that he has learned from Bill. Bill's summary notes on the tutor sessions are prompt and detailed. I highly recommend Bill for any Math tutoring or SAT preparation.


Sally W. from Forney, TX

Bill has been tutoring my daughter in math for her SAT. His approach has been great. He was able to quickly establish where her weaknesses were and address them. She feels much more confident now in her abilities to work and solve math problems. She has made great strides since starting to work with Bill. She is now not fearing her upcoming SAT, but is actually excited to see how much she can improve her score. I would highly recommend Bill as a tutor. He has been great at motivating, encouraging, and building my daughter's self confidence in her math skills.


Ganesh I. from Allen, TX

He is teaching my kids Math. I like that he first makes an assessment of the students abilities and then accordingly tailors his program.


Amar L. from Carrollton, TX

We need some one who could help our Son in his ACT Math I contacted Bill he was very prompt in his response and was on time for my sons first class he right away found out why my son was having issues with his Math and gave him strategies as to how to improve his Skills I was very impressed and we will continue using him as a Tutor.


Andrew D. from Plano, TX

I like that Bill first assessed my son's Algebra II strengths and deficits, and then developed a plan to for success in Precalculus. He was prepared, organized and knowledgeable, and demonstrated excellent rapport with my son. Highly recommended!


Almaz A. from Dallas, TX

My son improving his math skills faster. Bill is a wonderful tutor!!! I recommend him highly. Thanks Bill for your hard work!!!!


Seema C. from Mckinney, TX

Bill is tutoring my daughters for the ACT Math sections, and PSAT Math sections. It was the first tutoring session and he's very knowledgeable and patient.


Taylor A. from Plano, TX

Bill is an amazing tutor. His method allows for you to not going over redundant stuff rather information that will help you improve your score. After one session, I feel much more confident in what we went over during the session. I feel as if I can apply the concept we went over in more esoteric situations and still be able to work it out. Amazing tutor. I recommend.


Cole M. from Frisco, TX

First ACT session, but my son was impressed by Bill and felt he will really help improve his score. Fingers crossed!


Dinma C. from Wylie, TX

Bill is an AWESOME AWESOME math tutor!! We can only hope he tutors for a long time! We as parents get the feeling that he really enjoys tutoring math and wants our daughter to succeed!


Brady C. from Richardson, TX

From the first day of working together, I knew right off the bat that Bill would be the best tutor I'd ever had, and I couldn't have been proven more right. Bill is absolutely phenomenal. He's so encouraging, down to earth, and very personable. He breaks the stereo-type of math tutors being nerdy and difficult to understand. Definitely one of the most relatable guys ever! Math has plagued me since my early high school years. The defining moment came when the only thing that stood in between my graduating with a college degree, was a single math credit, which I had put off for three years. I enrolled in a wintermester algebra class, which packed a 16 week semester of college algebra into 10 days. I hadn't touched math in four years. My first test score was a 27 in my math class. That was before Bill started tutoring me. By the time Bill had guided me through the course and the final exam rested on my desk, I was more than prepared and ended up nearly tripling my score, receiving far above a passing grade. Frankly, it was a miracle, and my math phobia was overcome through the guidance of Bill F. Hire him. This guy will rock your world.


Kurt M. from Rockwall, TX

My son was very excited after working with Bill. He said Bill was very patient and explained concepts in ways he could understand. My son is looking forward to the next session with Bill and is very confident that Bill will help him raise his SAT scores.


Dana B. from Plano, TX

Bill is willing to go above and beyond with detailing out a working plan to help my child succeed and jumps onboard with his flexibility for added support when needed. I am very grateful to have him helping my child!
