Hi. My name is Les and I am a retired high school/middle school math teacher. Actually, in my 25 years of teaching I taught General Math, Prealgebra, Algebra I & II, Geometry, Advanced Math, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Physical Science, Geographic Information Systems(GIS), Music, Study Skills, and Driver Education. I have worked in both public and private schools, and have also done Family Counseling and worked in Special Education. I ran a GED class for at risk teens for several years with a 100% success rate.

When I was not at school, I was busy raising six children and in my spare time I was active in Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and as an appraiser for Destination Imagination. I was also active with the school drama program. I also owned and operated a small recording studio, and performed with a local folk/folk-rock band.

Now that I am retired, and moved here to Florida, I miss working with students. So, here I am. I am looking forward to working with you.

Study Skills

I have worked in education for the last thirty years. In that time I have had the pleasure of working with literally thousands of students. A large part of helping each student to achieve his or her goals was helping them develop good study skills. Developing good organizational and time management skills was a good start, but good study skills are a lot more than that. I would help each student to develop their own study skills by using various methods of obtaining, understanding, retaining,... Read More

ADD/ADHD

In my thirty years of working in education, I have had considerable experience working with special needs ( ADD/ADHD, Aspergers, etc.) students in both the public school and private school setting. In addition to teaching Math, I have worked as a one-on-one aide, an inclusion aide, and supervised both the middle school and high school resource rooms.

To foster the desired behavior, I try to make clear and specific requests and provide an abundance of positive feedback for accomplishing... Read More
