About James


Bio

I was trained as a scientist and have worked as a scientist or process engineer for my entire career. I've always enjoyed teaching/training colleagues, so I am confident that working as a tutor will be a satisfying experience.

My previous experience as a tutor has been limited to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calc, chemistry and physics. I was an outstanding student in high school and graduated as the valedictorian of my class.

I was trained as a scientist and have worked as a scientist or process engineer for my entire career. I've always enjoyed teaching/training colleagues, so I am confident that working as a tutor will be a satisfying experience.

My previous experience as a tutor has been limited to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calc, chemistry and physics. I was an outstanding student in high school and graduated as the valedictorian of my class.

Although math and science subjects always came easily to me, my fellow students often struggled. When I began to tutor, I found that a minor misunderstanding of a concept was usually the main cause of the student's difficulties. I have found that discovering the gaps in understanding is a critical step in the tutoring process.

Contact me! I look forward to helping you become more successful.

Knowledgable and patient tutor

James did a good job explaining statistics to my son who was struggling in that class. His price was affordable which helps when you need to schedule several sessions. Glad we found him!

Excellent!

My daughter had an excellent first sesssion with James. He was knowledgeable, patient and she felt like he wanted to see her succeed as much as she wants to succeed. She will definitely be scheduling more sessions with him. Thank you, James!

Great Tutor

Really easy to work with and helped me with the beginning of precalculus. I look forward to working with him more. I believe he can help me manage this class with more confidence.

Great teacher!

James worked with two 14 ye old boys on Geometry and they both agreed that he knew more than their own teacher at school! He gave them notes afterwards to refer to. I can’t refer him more than enough, he was great to work with.

Did an excellent job!

Very clear and understandable! I was having issues, and he made the questions and answers easier to relate. I will hire him again. He was kind, punctual, and reasonable.
