Experienced retired High School Math and Science Teacher
I enjoy working with students who want to learn. I am a retired California public high school math and science teacher. I have a single subject California teaching credential in math, physics, chemistry, geoscience (earth science), and biological sciences (biology).
I taught algebra as a high school math teacher, as well as nanotechnology along with chemistry in my high school science classes. Recently I was an adjunct college professor teaching algebra-based physics and labs at a...

The BEST tutor
I cannot begin to explain what a wonderful tutor Mr. Moore is. He has spent the last 2-3 weeks helping me prepare for a science exam. Having failed the exam twice before, I can now say I have passed! Mr. Moore raised my score over 30 points. He is a great person overall, hilarious, caring and very knowledgeable. I can definitely say that I've learned more about science within these 2-3 weeks than I have ever before. He made the information so easy to understand and follow. If I ever need help in the future, I know Mr. Moore will be able to help me 100%. Trust me when I say that he is an amazing tutor! Thank you so much, Mr. Moore.

He is a good and patient tutor. The way he explained everything to me was a big help. I would highly recommend him 100%. He took his time to go through a review of multiple choice homework questions and went through each one in a detailed manner.

Patient and effective tutor
Richard's first tutoring class was excellent and very productive. My son has many struggles to understand physics and was very scared about that. After this lesson he is more confident and understanding better. Richard is a tutor with a lot of knowledge, and his way of teaching are very successful for my son. I recommend him 💯. Thank you Richard!!!

Excellent Educator
My daughter needed to begin with basics before she was able to begin understanding her current chemistry unit, and Richard was AMAZING at identifying that need and giving her a foundation. I am so excited to see the knowledge they build together in the coming weeks!

I have not practiced or worked basic geometry in 10 years but Richard was thorough and patient in helping me understand concepts and formulas. Great teaching style and easy to get along with.

Knowledgeable and patient
Richard helped my daughter review the basic vocabulary of geometry, a few concepts and he helped her prepare for her exam. She ended up getting an 85! We will definitely use Richard’s Assistance in the future!

So personable and easy to follow! The hour went fast!!
In only an hour, we covered at least 5 different types of problems and worked through them together on the shared whiteboard. I learned different ways to work through each of the problems. He is very helpful. I am looking forward to the next session.

Conscientious and Caring Tutor
After our first session with Richard, he called to let my son know that he had misinformed him on a concept in Geometry and wanted to come back for a second session to clear it up. After their 2nd session, my son understood these concepts better than ever.
