autism
I am very familiar with autism. I am a Ph.D. in experimental psychology specializing in neuropsychology and have written a major theoretical article on the origins of autism. I am familiar with the mental processes involved in autism and have friends whose children have autism or Asperger's syndrome. I understand some of the techniques used to treat autism and feel I would do a good job in tutoring someone with at least high-functioning autism.

ADHD
ADD/ADHD
I have a Ph.D. in experimental psychology, and I am an educator. I teach biopsychology at the college level, and I lecture on the neurochemical and neuroanatomical basis of ADHD and the nature of the deficits in this disorder. I also teach an undergraduate course in learning, so I am very knowledgeable about behavioral treatments and monitoring. Because I am further certified in high school science and as a middle school generalist, I am able to tutor specifically at this level. Hence, when it comes to secondary school students with ADHD, I understand the strengths and challenges of students with this condition.

Dr. P took his time and was very patient with me. Eventually I was able to do the last 3 difficult assignments on my own and made perfect scores on each!!!
John S. from San Antonio, TX
Fred was able to come up with a plan and make a difference in our son's confidence and performance after just a few sessions. He made every session count and we a very thankful for his help preparing for the SAT.
Troy M. from San Antonio, TX
Fred P. was very knowledgeable in all aspects of SPSS statistics. He was prompt and courteous. I would recommend Fred P. to anyone; His service is second to none. I cannot say enough good things about Fred. I will continue to use him whenever I have any statistics problems. He not only knew the program, but knew statistics as well and explained what it meant. I was very pleased. Fred P. continues to do an excellent job. I was recently hospitalized and Fred was willing to go to the hospital and tutor me. Fred changed his schedule to meet my needs. Fred has gone above and beyond the call of duty. Not to mention is getting me through a very difficult course.
Terry R. from San Antonio, TX
Fred is working with three students and each of them really liked him. The plan is to schedule a few more sessions before the SAT. The boys met again with Fred and really feel like they are going to see an improvement in their scores from last year. I just noticed I gave Fred 4 stars the first time, I thought I had selected 5. You can tell he really cares about this students. I plan to use him next time around for my son who will be taking the SAT next year. Thanks Fred for all your help!
