Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your educational journey. I work for you to help you improve your understanding of mathematics so that your grades and scores improve. As a public high school teacher I worked hard to help my students learn. Some students were learning AP Statistics and some were in Algebra I with a learning disability. All students mattered and all students required respect and care.

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your educational journey. I work for you to help you improve your understanding of mathematics so that your grades and scores improve. As a public high school teacher I worked hard to help my students learn. Some students were learning AP Statistics and some were in Algebra I with a learning disability. All students mattered and all students required respect and care.

I know that education can help people achieve their goals. I joined the US Navy and they helped me get a a college education. I was the first in my immediate family to graduate from college. These life experiences impressed on me the need to give all my students the opportunity to achieve and be successful.

Teaching mathematics and tutoring mathematics is fun. The concepts are challenging and the teaching is creative. I am now teaching and tutoring online and really enjoying this occupation as I help people working on the PRAXIS or PSAT or calculus or geometry.

Thank you for your time I hope to hear from you soon.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

The high school I taught at for 26 years focused on the ACT. I developed numerous lessons for my students and have studied the test. I am also able to help you with your DESMOS skills.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I taught Algebra 1 in a public high school many years including many students with learning disabilities. I currently teach challenging courses online with a company focused on students who do math competitions. I still have a valid teaching certification in my state.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have taught Algebra II that inclujded trigonometry and conic sections and also taught it to seniors just wanting to graduate. I can help you, too. I am still certified to teach math in my state and tutor Algebra II students online.
AMC (Competition math)

AMC (Competition math)

I have tutored for Noetic, Kangaroo, Math Counts, Math Olympiad, Math Counts, and AMC. I also teach multiple courses from Pre-Algebra to Geometry for Art of Problem Solving which is a company that focuses on math competitions. I am best with competitions for 8th grade and below but have successfully tutored for AMC10 as well.
Calculus

Calculus

I am probably one of the few people on this earth who took and passed calculus 1 twice! My math teacher signed me up to take Calculus 1 in the summer before my junior year of high school and I got an A. Then my junior year I took AP Calculus and got a 5 on the test. In college, I audited the Calculus 1 class before I took Calculus 2 so I've really kind of had the class 3 times! I can help you learn Calculus 1 and Calculus 2 as well as AP AB and AP BC.
Geometry

Geometry

I have taught all levels of geometry and I can help you. I taught classes in a public high school with numerous students having learning disabilities. I also teach honors geometry online. I have also helped students with their geometry as they prepare for the AMC8. I can help you, too.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I have taught the foundations of Precalculus (Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II) to fill in any deficiencies you may have. I tutor Calculus online so I know what skills you will need in the future. I am still certified for math in my state and I can help you be confident and skilled in your precalculus class.
Probability

Probability

I have taught probability as part of a statistics class in high school. I teach a challenging counting and probability class online. I can help you with your high school class or entry level college class, but I am not able to help with higher level college courses.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I can help you prepare for the SAT math portion. I can help you know when and how to use scratch paper, your calculator, and DESMOS. I can also help you improve your problem solving abilities and test taking readiness.
Statistics

Statistics

I really enjoy statistics as it is very practical and it is fun to help students get a more clear understanding of the problems and equations. I can help with high school statistics or entry level college courses. I am very familiar with TI-84 type calculators and also somewhat familiar with various statistics packages and Excel. Let's find a day/time that we can meet to get started.
Track & Field

Track & Field

I am retired from coaching track and field, but I coached it for 20 years and some of those years I was the head coach writing all summer workouts and in-season workouts for all events and both genders. I am USATF Level 1 certified and have studied numerous coaching videos and am good at looking at athlete videos to make improvements. When I was a coach I worked to make each athlete successful and hopefully can work with you to be more successful.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I have taught basic trigonometry as part of a high school Algebra II class. I tutor Precalculus online that included trigonometry. I am good at word problems which are a large part of a good trigonometry course. I also tutor Calculus 1 so I know what your class is preparing you to do.

Fantastic SAT Math Tutor!

If I were to give Mr Timothy a tutoring rating score I’d give a 10/10 every time. Mr Timothy has been incredibly helpful and supportive in helping me prepare for the SAT Math section. He always is helping me improve by working through problems in a easy and understandable way that targets the mathematical reasoning behind everything so I know not just how to solve problems by using a formula or methods but I actually understand the formulas and methods. Mr Timothy makes sure that at the start of each session we review a bit of what we did previously in the last session to reinforce learning which is honestly INCREDIBLY helpful and makes me really have to think. Mr Timothy is obviously a really amazing teacher who has a lot of experience in teaching and is an incredibly intelligent person and this is something evident from the moment you talk to him. he handles every problem and mistake I make with professionalism and clear communication. I’m very happy to have him as a tutor as each session makes me more confident for the SAT exam. :)

Awesome SAT Math Tutor!

Mr. Timothy was a really knowledgeable and interactive tutor who made it a point to get to know who I was. Mr. Timothy obviously has a lot of experience teaching in students and especially on the SAT math through how efficient he is at getting a point across! In the span of 1 hour of SAT tutoring I already have an idea of things I need to work on, areas to better, how i can increase my speed for the SAT and the new need for a review book haha! Would 100% recommend and will be continuing SAT sessions with him :)
