About Brian

Bio

Hi, there! My name is Brian. I've been working in education for six years, five of those in math-only education. I've worked alongside teachers in public high schools, as a higher math-focused private tutor, and even as a trainer for math tutors at a learning center.

Hi, there! My name is Brian. I've been working in education for six years, five of those in math-only education. I've worked alongside teachers in public high schools, as a higher math-focused private tutor, and even as a trainer for math tutors at a learning center.

I specialize in tutoring advanced math courses like precalculus and calculus, where your student needs access to all the expertise they can get. I'll help them to understand their materials deeply, explain difficult concepts in language that makes sense to them, and help them strategize techniques to solve problems efficiently and perform well on tests.

While I believe that experience and results speak the loudest, I also have test and class scores to back myself up: 1590/1600 on the SAT, 5s on the Calculus AB and BC tests, and As in multiple college-level math courses.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I can't wait to get working with you!
