Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I make a good tutor because I'm able to connect with students on a personal level, understand how they learn best and tailor lessons and activities around their learning style. I really enjoy helping students have break-through moments with subjects they were struggling with. The look on their faces when the light bulb finally clicks on and all the frustration melts away is really rewarding to me. So much so that I hope to teach high school science or math at the conclusion of my PhD.

John is great as a tutor. He is able to break down complicated concepts so that any level student can understand them. He was great for helping both me and my younger sister in statistics, chemistry, algebra, geometry and whatever else we needed.

John was a fantastic biology tutor for my high school junior who has ADHD. We've struggled to find a tutor who understood his needs and finally found a good fit with John. He was always very professional and my son loves him! I highly recommend him.

John was my son's Pre-Cal (as well as his other subjects) tutor, when he was in the 11th grade. John helped him learn new study skills and organizational techniques. My son was extremely comfortable working with him and always improved on whatever they focused on. John is professional and reliable as well as personable. I will be hiring him to help my son with his ACTs this year!

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    Generally, I charge $40 / hour for tutoring sessions although I offer a discounted rate for clients hiring me for 4 or more hours a week and those willing to do sessions over Skype.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I am in my 4th year of a PhD program that has given me hundreds of hours of additional school work in math and science compared to most college seniors. I've been a TA for 3 courses, given over a dozen college level lectures and been a professional tutor since 2013.

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I've tutored 5th graders and college seniors and all ages in between.
