- Tami, Denver, CO on 2/10/13He showed me a totally new way to set up the equations which was so much easier, efficient and better than the way I had been doing them. Using this new way helps me view the problem much more systematically and to know exactly what to do to solve them. Since I am on a tight budget, he was able to help with extreme efficiency so that I was able to grasp it within my hour long time constraint. Alfred is also really patient and friendly,has a great sense of humor and knows his stuff. I HIGHLY recommend him for help with all math.
"Great Teacher"
- Robinson, Englewood, CO on 8/24/17Alfred is quickly helping me get back up to speed! He always has multiple and alternative ways to work problems. He helps me get my brain wrapped around the concepts and is very detail oriented.
"two thumbs up!!"

"I highly recommend Alfred"
- Sarah Jane, Aurora, CO on 12/11/16Alfred was awesome. His style worked perfectly for preparing for the GRE. He's very intelligent and quick. This is just what I needed to get ready for such a grueling test. I was so worried about being able to get through the test without using too much time on each problem. He zeroed in on that right away, and we were able to cover so much in a short time. I feel much more confident about taking the GRE after working with him. He's obviously passionate about math and about helping students too, which makes all the difference in a tutor. I highly recommend him.
"Very helpful"

"Excellent Tutor!"
- Michelle, Littleton, CO on 9/19/16Alfred tutored my son in physics. He helped him understand and see physics in a different way. Alfred made him realize that physics wasn't as hard as he thought. See the smile on my son's face after the tutoring was priceless. Thank you Alfred!
"Knowledgeable"
- Myia, Denver, CO on 9/12/16Alfred and I worked on calculus for my high school test. I felt like some of the problems that we worked on Alfred made it more difficult than it had to be but other then that he was patient and knowledgeable.
"Awesome experience and great tutor"

"Excellent First Session"
- Brian, Aurora, CO on 3/16/16Alfred arrived on time, took the time to understand the needs/goals, and reviewed some of the basics to gain understanding of where my son was in his learning. The session went very well and his teaching style complimented my son's learning style. My son felt much more comfortable with the material and certainly much more confident in his understanding of the material. Definitely recommend Alfred for IB Calculus.
"Made everything seem easier in a fun way!"
- Abigail, Aurora, CO on 2/29/16Alfred helped me study for my calc test on integration. He showed me simple ways to figure out the problems with inverse trig, u substitutions, and other methods. Definitely would recommend him as a tutor! He has also helped me with my AP physics class before.
"Very helpful and knowledgable"
- Vicky, Denver, CO on 12/14/15Alfred helped me review for my final. I learned so much from him in our one hour. Because of him, I feel more prepared for my test.

"My son is very pleased and so am I."
- Bea, Littleton, CO on 5/15/13He got a 29 in ACT math. and average 29 too. Thank you so much, is been such a pleasure for him, can't believe he skipped mother's day to have a math class on Sunday! As you know he hopes to get a better grade next opportunity to do an ACT. But that is him, has to get the best grades or is not happy. I am very pleased.
I don't know how much longer the classes will go on because the year is almost over. but we for sure will recommend you as a Great Teacher!. God bless and keep up the great work.
"So far so good!"
- Varney, Aurora, CO on 2/6/13Alfred certainly seems to have profound understanding of the subject matter (calculus-1) or at least that's the immediate impression I got from the first lesson session.
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.
ACT Math
I have taught mathematics including ACT, GRE and SAT for more than ten years. I have a classroom experience as well as one-on-one experience in teaching math.
Algebra 1
I have been teaching algebra and other math subjects fro more than 10 years; I have worked with all ages and all educational backgrounds both in the classroom and one-on-one.
Algebra 2
I have over 10 years of experience both in the classroom and one-on-one. I have been working with all ages and all educational backgrounds. I can adapt my teaching style to the specific needs of the student.
Arabic
I was born in Israel and studied Arabic throughout my school years; from elementary school through high school I read and studied Arabic history, poetry both classic and modern, literature, fiction and much more. Throughout my school years I wrote essays in Arabic and have practiced the spoken language with native Arabic speakers from different countries. Thus, I know different dialects and different accents. I have even studied classical Arabic which embodies the most accurate grammatical rules of the language and reflects the social values of Arab communities living in the distant past. Arabic is a rich language overflowing with imagery; it lends itself easily to rhyme and poetic as well as prose writing.
Calculus
I have been teaching calculus in the context of mathematics, physics, business and engineering for more than ten years. I have been working with students of all ages and educational backgrounds. I know how to help the student see the logic behind calculus.
Differential Equations
Differential-Equations is a field I have dealt since my freshman years. My majoring in physics made it inevitable for me to become increasingly good at the subject matter. Building a differential equation is a major step in creating a mathematical model for a physical system, be it mechanical, electrical, biological, ecological, economic or anything else; it is a step that requires insight into the nature of the system. Solving a differential equation, which is what the topic of Differential Equations is about requires training, experience and the ability to identify patterns and structures, such as quadratic forms, which a technique encountered in solving second-order differential equations.
I have used differential equations extensively in both physics problems and engineering problems. I have helped a lot of students taking differential equations and have built enough experience allowing me to handle the subject matter with sufficient expertise. In addition to the above, I have passion for the subject.
Geometry
Geometry has been a favorite science subject since high-school; in fact it has been one of my strongest points too. I have always found a robust understanding of geometry extremely useful (and even indispensable) in physics, engineering, calculus and almost every mathematical discipline. I have been teaching geometry not only as a subject in its own right but also as part of the calculus series and other calculus-based subjects. I have also learned how to how in the student's shoes, which gives me an edge as a geometry teacher.
Physics
I hold a master in engineering, bachelor of science in physics and have a 14-year college teaching experience. I have taught physics for more than ten years both in the classroom and one-on-one.
Prealgebra
I have taught mathematics including prealgebra and other math classes for more than ten years. I have a classroom experience as well as one-on-one experience in teaching math.
Precalculus
I have taught mathematics including trigonometry for more than ten years. I have a classroom experience as well as one-on-one experience. My experience in trigonometry covers applications in physics and engineering and is backed up my my background in mathematics, including Precalculus.
SAT Math
I have taught mathematics including SAT math for more than ten years. I have a classroom experience as well as one-on-one experience in teaching mathematics.
Trigonometry
I have taught mathematics including trigonometry for more than ten years. I have a classroom experience as well as one-on-one experience. My experience in trigonometry covers applications in physics and engineering and is backed up my my background in mathematics.
