Math & Study Skills Tutor | M.S. in Applied Behavior Analysis

George A.

I recently completed my Master of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis with a concentration in Autism at Endicott College and am currently awaiting formal conferral of my diploma. I also hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Santa Clara University and have been a Registered Behavior Technician since 2016. For the past nine years, I have worked as a behavior interventionist supporting students across school and home settings, which has given me extensive experience breaking down complex skills into clear, manageable steps and helping learners build confidence in their academic abilities.

My tutoring experience includes working in elementary school settings as well as providing private one-on-one academic support. I primarily work with elementary, middle school, and high school students, and I focus on subjects such as Algebra 1, middle school math, history, and study skills. I specialize in helping students who struggle with focus, organization, or motivation by teaching them how to approach learning strategically, rather than relying on memorization alone. My background in behavior analysis allows me to use structured, supportive methods that reinforce progress and build consistency over time.

My approach is patient, individualized, and goal-oriented. I take time to understand how each student learns best and adapt my teaching style to meet their needs, whether that means providing visual supports, guided practice, or clear routines for studying and problem-solving. My goal is not only to help students succeed in their current coursework, but also to equip them with skills and strategies they can use independently moving forward.
