I hold a Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctorate degree. I have experience tutoring Junior High and High School English Language Arts, Intermediate Algebra, Geometry, and Algebra II/Trigonometry and preparing students for taking the New York State Regents Exams in these subjects. I taught Theology, Religion and Philosophy at two small liberal arts colleges and have tutored undergraduates in Philosophy and graduate students in Theology. I have also helped young adults prepare to take the GED. I am a National Outdoor Leadership School Certified Outdoor Leader (NOLS Outdoor Educators Course) and a Leave No Trace Master Educator (LNT Master Educators Course).

Religion

While my undergraduate degree was in “Social Service”, it included numerous courses in Religion. I hold a M. Div. (Master of Divinity) from Princeton Theological Seminary and a D. Min. (Doctor of Ministry) from Pittsburg Theological Seminary. I have also engaged in study at the Institute for Reformed Theology at Union Presbyterian Seminary, Richmond, Virginia. I studied Latin in High School, Biblical Greek in College and Graduate School, and Biblical Hebrew in Graduate School. While I do not claim... Read More

Chess

I am not a Grand Master but I love chess and bring enthusiasm to the game with enough knowledge and experience to teach the beginner or intermediate but not so much knowledge or hubris to intimidate. I started playing chess soon after Bobby Fisher beat Boris Spassky to win the World Chess Championship in 1972. I am a member of the United States Chess Federation and regularly play on the World Chess Live internet chess site, preferring rated five and fifteen minute rated games against random opponents...

Public Speaking

I earned an “A” in an undergraduate “Public Speaking” class and a “B” in a graduate level “Sound and Sense in Speech” practicum. I regularly prepare and deliver a 15-20 minute “Sermon” for public worship and have done so before more than a hundred people. I also taught and lectured undergraduate Theology, Religion and Philosophy to classes as large as thirty or students.

Successful Public Speaking demands that you have something to say, that you organize your thoughts, employ tools... Read More

Regents

I have tutored New York City High School Students in preparation for taking the English Language Arts Regents Exam as well as the Integrated Algebra, Geometry, and Algebra II/Trigonometry Regents Exams. I am thoroughly familiar with these exams and by using recent Regents Exams can help students prepare for them by reviewing the appropriate material, brushing up on weak areas, reducing test-taking anxiety, and becoming more familiar with the layout, scoring, and content.
