"Thoughtful and Detailed"
- Laureen, Redondo Beach, CA on 1/26/17My daughter worked with Maher this past semester on Honors Chemistry and, to a more limited extent, Honors Geometry. As a result, her grades improved, especially in chemistry. More important, Maher helped her not only understand the coursework better, he helped her feel more confident and at ease about the challenging material. Maher was on time for every session. The few times we were late, he was courteous and waited patiently. He provided thoughtful and detailed summaries of each lesson. I highly recommend him as a knowledgeable, approachable tutor and a kind and courteous professional. We would continue to work with Maher if we hadn't moved out of town.

"Reliable, professional tutor"
- Betty, Manhattan Beach, CA on 5/6/17For the past 5 months, Maher worked weekly with my granddaughter in AP Chemistry. In late December, she was almost totally. Maher patiently worked with her to restore her confidence and get her back on track. He was very professional in his approach and established an excellent rapport with her. She understood his explanations and her confidence improved that she could master the assignments. After each lesson, he documented carefully what they had covered. He was always on time and was amazingly prompt with his email responses to schedule change request. He went to extremes to accommodate our requests. My granddaughter was able to keep up AP Chemistry class over the second half of the year and keep her grades at a B level. She felt comfortable and confident when she took the AP exam this week. In summary I am extremely pleased with the help that Maher provided my granddaughter.

Approved subjects are in bold.
Approved subjects
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
Calculus
I received an A in Calculus at UC Berkeley.
Chemistry
UC Berkeley Chemistry Courses: 2 semesters of general chemistry, 2 semesters of organic chemistry, and 2 semesters of biochemistry.
Organic Chemistry
I completed 2 semesters worth of Organic Chemistry in UC Berkeley, and got a B in both semesters. Since graduating, I have tutored Organic Chemistry to several different students. However, one particular student I helped weekly throughout a whole semester, which greatly helped me refresh my knowledge and understanding in the class. Though I may not have all the answers on the top of my head, I am excellent at asking the right questions and working together with students to get the correct answer.
Physics
I received an A+ in University Physics at UC Berkeley
Precalculus
I earned an A in Calculus at UC Berkeley
Psychology
I have a BA in Psychology from UC Berkeley
R
In my university statistics courses, I used R extensively to analyze data sets. I am familiar with all of the statistical tests and analyses, and can help identify the situations in which each test is needed. Whether starting with a large data set or a summary of the data, I can help make testing for statistical significance quick and simple.
Statistics
I received an A+ in UC Berkeley Upper Level Statistics Course. Proficient in R.
