Introduction: When I was a student I was afraid to mistakes because I thought a mistake was a step in the wrong direction. Now I know that is backwards. A mistake is just an opportunity to expand the boundaries of what you already know—real learning. I push my students to work hard and enjoy the process of improving themselves through trial, error, and discovery. The most gratifying thing for me as a teacher is being able to empower another person with the confidence to grow as a student and individual.

Amitai knows his stuff. He's able to explain things in a way that resonates with people. I was studying for a standardized test and after a quick glance, Amitai was able to identify various approaches to solving specific problems that were challenging to me. Very helpful and would definitely recommend to anyone!!

Amitai is a natural tutor! He never runs out of ideas to explain a concept, no matter how complex... if the idea doesn't sink in at first, you can always look forward to his next creative method to drive the point home. Amitai made me feel comfortable to ask questions freely and tutors with humor and patience. He was super attentive to my needs as a tutee.

Amitai was punctual, very personable, got right down to business, and methodically went through every math problem with me. He had excellent explanations for each problem and made sure I understood before we moved on to the next problem. He is very patient, positive, and will explain concepts in multiple ways until you understand. I highly recommend him!

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    Before my customers accept a quote from me, I like to offer the opportunity for a one-on-one. This way my students and I can get to know each other, talk about my teaching styles and how I can help them not only achieve their immediate goals, but also gain the confidence to approach new problems independently.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    In my experience the best learning happens in an environment where there is equal participation between the student and their tutor. Hire a professional with whom you feel comfortable having an open dialogue about the subject matter. My philosophy is that by encouraging an open dialogue between myself and my students, I empower them to synthesize the material in their own unique way.

  • What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

    "How should I break down my goal into achievable steps, and how can this professional help me execute?"
