I have been teaching high school mathematics for 19 years and have specialized in advanced math topics. I have taught and tutored subjects ranging from Pre-Algebra through AP Calculus.

I am not the type of tutor that gives out answers, but I will not waste your time with long lengthy explanation... ... More

My whole life, as person and as student, educator and publisher has involved investigating transitions, sounds, and choices. I have done this primarily as a historian and publisher, one who is well versed in all areas of the social sciences.

Here I conducted research for my doctorate in African History. School is hard and I am sensitive to the fa... ... More

I'm currently a student myself at Holoyoke Community College where I'm in my second-year studying engineering. Next year I'll be transferring to UMass/Amherst where I'll pursue degrees in computer science and electrical engineering en route to research in artificial intelligence. I'm also currently a part-time tutor at the HCC math center. Tutoring is inherently personal as it most often occurs on a one-on-one basis, but often times tutors still implement a one-size-fits-all approach. I t... ... More
