About
Teaching is my greatest passion. I have been tutorng since I was 12 years old, when I began tutoring Algebra.
Later, as a high school math teacher and debate coach, my students achieved a 100% pass-rate on the New York state Regents exams, and were undefeated in their debate league.
In college, I studied Math, Finance, Economics, and Accounting. I graduated with a 3.95 GPA and am a member of Phi Beta Kappa.
After my teaching career, I began a corporate career in finance and accounting. My greatest successes have been when I have coached young professionals to develop their skills, so... I never really left teaching!
I have now left my full time corporate career and opened an independent business consulting firm. Now that my schedule is flexible, I am excited to once again pursue my greatest passion of all -- watching that "ah ha" light bulb turn on in a student's brain!

Yehuda was a truly fantastic tutor and I cannot recommend him enough! I worked with him through my junior and senior year of high school to prepare for the ACT. Yehuda is a very personable tutor, who makes learning fun and engaging. He pays attention to every student’s unique skills and characteristics to make them as successful as possible. Whenever I had an issue or something I couldn’t figure out, he would go above and beyond to find ways to make sure that I understood it fully and completely. He teaches in a clear and entertaining manner, something that was instrumental to my level of engagement and understanding. He is able to figure the unique aspects and challenges a student has and works with them to solve those things. He adapts to the student and their specific learning needs. I learned invaluable techniques that drastically improved my productivity and changed my approach to tests completely, something I still use today while in college. The skills you learn with Yehuda are useful far past the test you are preparing for. Working with Yehuda is not just an investment in your student’s test scores, but also an investment in the rest of their academic and professional future.

Yehuda is very experienced and really knows his stuff. Not only was he proficient in the areas we were working on, but adapted to my childs personality and needs. I could tell he really cared about my child and the goals she was trying to achieve. He is funny and down to earth which made a difficult subject easier. But, most of all, my child achieved the grade she needed and got into the college of her choice

Yehuda was a highly motivating tutor and guide to the SAT. During the sessions, I learned a process for every type of
question and how to break down the passages. In the end, I received a 300-point increase in my SAT score. I highly
recommend Yehuda as a tutor!
