About Me
My focus has always been on helping the students who struggle the most — the ones with no real work ethic yet, weak skills, and no clear idea of what it means to be a student (which, honestly, is most students starting out).

My goal is to turn that around. I’ve developed a technique that helps students not only catch up but often pass the classmates they were once behind. It’s not magic — just the right push at the right time.

My track record shows that I am the best in the business. Along with my commitment to student achievement, I am a great motivator. Listen in on one of my tutoring sessions and you'll hear a lot of Ohs! and Wow! Often the student is not into the tutoring at all and so, I teach an energetic session that is sure to keep his attention, and sure to get him fired up and caught up. Before he knows it, the session is over and he has learned so much. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Math from UCSD and a Master's Degree in Education from SDSU. Tutoring is an honorable profession. I intend to uphold that honor. Most tutors have the best of intentions yet simply end up solving problems and collecting checks. Instead, I prefer to focus on a student's entire skill set (study skills, problem-solving techniques, basic skills, etc.) At my worst, I improve grades. At my best, I improve students' self-esteem, helping them to help others.

I guarantee the following for you or your child: immediate results, life-changing positive impact, a boost in self-esteem and confidence, huge gains in basic skills, study skills, problem-solving techniques, and test-taking skills, access to my vast portfolio of tips and tricks, and access to my teaching experience and techniques which have proven to be 100% effective. You are likely to see a huge leap in grades at least a letter or two or more! If you are in test prep expect your score to increase dramatically or possibly skyrocket which of course will have a tremendous impact on your career path. My estimates are based on historical results. I pride myself on student success. Call now and let's get started right away.

Best Test Prep Ever!

Sam was so professional and knew exactly what our son need to prepare to take the ASVAB test. His knowledge of the material as well as preparing our son mentally for what he could expect from the test. Sam was knowledgeable about the importance of the ASVAB score and the influence the score has on where he would be placed as he enters into the US Coast Guard. I highly recommend Sam!
