About William


Bio

I have over 25 years of experience working with all age groups from 4th grade to 80 years old. I am a great people-person, both friendly and focused, and will be committed to both your satisfaction and growth. I am detail oriented, clear speaking, and enjoy a variety of hobbies. We're bound to have at least one interest in common--which can be a great first step to establishing a friendly working rapport.

I have over 25 years of experience working with all age groups from 4th grade to 80 years old. I am a great people-person, both friendly and focused, and will be committed to both your satisfaction and growth. I am detail oriented, clear speaking, and enjoy a variety of hobbies. We're bound to have at least one interest in common--which can be a great first step to establishing a friendly working rapport.

For nearly 3 decades, I've worked hard to help my 4th and 5th graders excel at math, be they neurotypical or special needs, math-reluctant or math lovers.

I adore science! Whether it's the periodic table or the theory of evolution, weathering or magnetism, I'm your fired-up science nerd! As I type this, I have praying mantids hatching from 3 different oothecae, 2 baby alligator lizards in the classroom, and 4 snakes who accompany me to school regularly.

I started learning French as a teenager. My journey mastering the language, living in France and becoming a French citizen yielded invaluable insights I am able to couple with my 3 decades of teaching experience. I have a deep understanding of the challenges faced by newcomers to the French language -- and how to vanquish them.

I am a great people-person, both friendly and focused, and will be committed to both your satisfaction and growth. I love helping students of all ages achieve their goals. Helping you understand new or challenging ideas is one of my greatest thrills! As my student reviews will attest, you'll be glad you found me.

Grammar

Grammar

In my 30+ years of teaching, I've helped students from ages 8-80 fix their writing. Whether for grade school or applying to grad school, I can efficiently find and fix your grammatical errors. (Even when your grammar is fine, I can often recommend changes to strengthen and clarify your writing's impact!) I'm that guy who delights in finding the mistakes hiding in most published writing -- including that novel you just got from Barnes & Noble.
Proofreading

In my 30+ years of teaching and tutoring, I've helped students from ages 8-80 fix their writing. I've written movie scripts and pored through published books to find mistakes that slipped by in the first editions. Whether writing for grade school or applying to grad school, I can efficiently find and fix your errors and recommend changes to strengthen and clarify your writing's impact!
