Best Tutor Ever
Catherine, 77 lessons with RubenYou will not find a more dedicated, professional tutor than Ruben. Not only is he an extremely talented mathematician, but he is also an exceptionally caring instructor. Ruben provided tutoring services for my son in Pre-Calc and Calculus and helped him achieve very good grades at a demanding college prep high school. I only wish that my son’s high school teachers were as thorough, exceptional, and reliable as Ruben was. Despite his very busy schedule, Ruben never let us down. He has an...
Hi, my name is Ruben. I am a Mathematics and Computer Science Graduate, and have been tutoring students and helping them gain confidence and succeed in challenging subjects for over 15 years. While attending college I became a tutor, and after graduating at the top of my class I worked from some of the most well known companies in the Bay Area, while continuing to tutor many students locally and all across the USA.
I am a college graduate with a double major in Mathematics and Computer...

Knowledgeable and Encouraging
Ruben has been helping my sixteen year old son with Trigonometry. He is very smart and knowledgeable, but what is also very helpful in our case is how supportive and encouraging Ruben has been. My son can tend to be a bit self-negative and feel like math is just not his thing and shut down a bit. Ruben continues to assure him that he can tell he does have a strong aptitude for math, and if my son will put in the extra time and practice with math even on his own in between tutoring sessions, his math skills will strengthen as will his confidence in his own abilities to do math. In the last two weeks he has received As on his last two Trig quizzes and is very proud and really starting to see that he can do it, and the extra time spent studying and practicing really does help! This is a LIFE lesson! So thankful to have Ruben in our lives for this valuable help!

Excellent at giving guidance and lessons
Ruben helped my daughter with precalculus and gave her tips that also spanned over into her computer science class as well. He was able to make things more concise in solving and is very patient.

Algebra 1
Today my son sent a thank you message to Ruben, because he because he got his first A on a math test. Although I am proficient at math, I don’t have the patience or the dedication to offer my son what Ruben does. It is priceless.

Ruben has been so kind and patient with my son (and with me!) and keeps him wanting to come back for more each week. That kind of enthusiasm is priceless, and so appreciated!

Great tutor!
I just finished an online self-paced college precalculus course in about 3 months. Still need to take the final, but am expecting to get an A. I worked with Ruben for around 10, 90 minute sessions. He was extremely helpful. Completing the course as fast possible was very important to me. Without Ruben this wouldn’t have been possible. He went above and beyond and was very flexible. Ruben is an amazing tutor! Highly recommend.

Great tutor!
Ruben has been helping with my pre-calculus course. He is very knowledgeable and breaks down content in an understandable, concise way. Thank you for your help.

Excellent SAT Tutor/Math
Ruben has worked with both of my children preparing them for their SATs. I can not recommend him enough. We have used several tutors via the Wyzant app and all have been excellent. Ruben, however, takes it to the next level. He is professional, highly skilled and motivated for his students to excel and do their very best. After every lesson he sends notes and provides feedback on their progress. One of the best things about Ruben is that both my kids liked and respected him and that made the process very easy. I highly recommend him.

Hands down- the best tutor. Just can't say enough good things.
Ruben took on our high schooler at a critical time. Our son has struggled with math since he was little and it's his Achilles heel. First, Ruben is insanely patient. I am sure I would have fired my son as a client:) He continued to support our son to work harder, gave him tips for weekly study practices that created deeper understanding. He wrote out problems for our son to work on in between their meetings and went over material when our son, sadly, did not do his practice problems as planned. Again- very patient man. Ruben is OUTRAGEOUSLY communicative in the most timely fashion. He corresponded with me and kept me in the loop. We coordinated for him to chat with the math professor so that all channels of support were aligned. My son hated the math:)....but loved working with Ruben. We have 5 sons and have needed help for each across various subjects. I can confidently say that Ruben is a fabulously unique tutor. He is insanely knowledgable in his subject, but marries that with a genuine care for his students and a lovely personality to boot. Stop looking- your kid will do better in math with his help.
