Introduction: I mainly tutor in math, and currently, tutor online. Uncommonly, I tutor general sciences, statistics, and math test prep (ACT, SAT, ASVAB). My rate is $50 if 1 hour/week and $40 per hour if 2+ hours/week. One hour a week, I host Minecraft math activities for grades 5-9 (varies) where participants complete a new challenge in Minecraft before the session ends and get to share their designs with others in the meeting. My rate is $18 per computer screen and participants must own Minecraft. I would say I'm easy to talk to, and I have a great connection with kids. Everyone has a unique way of learning, and I would say I'm perceptible to the way they learn, and the pace at which they learn. Lastly, I offer modding lessons for the video game Stardew Valley.

Brandon has been tutoring my son for only a week and it's already made a huge difference for my 14 year olds math confidence. Brandon is an excellent teacher. He explains things clearly and if my son gets a wrong answer he talks him through it to figure out why, without being unkind. I am so glad we found Brandon. Just wish I'd done this sooner.

My son worked with Brandon in the summer to prepare for the honors math in 8th grade. There were a lot of concepts to cover but Brandon did an awesome job of going through all of them and my son has so much more confidence in math now. Will definitely contact him again. Thank you Brandon!

Brandon is an amazing tutor! He has tutored me for about a year and he is hardworking, patient, and helpful. He is very knowledgeable and teaches with ease. He helped me achieve my goals and I couldn’t be more grateful, I had a lot of anxiety for math and he helped me through the tough lessons. He gives lots of schedule leeway and is easy-going. I would highly recommend him for your child, he does a great job, and is more than worth it!

In 2015, I earned an Associate's Degree in General Studies with a focus in math and science. I taught a semester-long (14 week) college course at San Francisco State University, became a founding member of a program aimed at assisting and tutoring first generation low-income college students in health & social science majors.
