Bio

Hi, I'm Chris! After graduating from college with a major in history, I began tutoring in New York City. That was all the way back in 2008!

Since then, I have focused on building a career as a private tutor. I have tutored hundreds of students since 2008 in a myriad of subjects. Over the course of my career, I have tracked the changes in the academic, test prep, and college admissions worlds and have adapted myself to those changes.

Hi, I'm Chris! After graduating from college with a major in history, I began tutoring in New York City. That was all the way back in 2008!

Since then, I have focused on building a career as a private tutor. I have tutored hundreds of students since 2008 in a myriad of subjects. Over the course of my career, I have tracked the changes in the academic, test prep, and college admissions worlds and have adapted myself to those changes.

As a full-time tutor, I have been able to hone my expertise in many subjects. Although I was a history major, I have come to love math, and I tutor students in math subjects ranging from pre-Algebra through Calculus.

Additionally, I am an expert in test prep. I have tutored dozens of high school students for the SAT and ACT. I also have very extensive experience tutoring the SSAT, the ISEE, and the New York City SHSAT.

Once my students start working with me, they stay with me. I have worked with families starting in middle school to prepare their students for the high school entrance exams, then continued to help these students with their homework through high school (math, English, history, science; I do it all!). Often, these same students will come to me to help them prepare for their SAT and ACT tests, and finally to help them craft their college admissions essays and applications.

I currently work at an independent middle school in Connecticut, where I am the in-school tutor for students with learning differences. I am now teaching a Precalculus course, and in the past have taught a 7th grade math course.

Helping students and families navigate the world of test prep and academic work is my passion. I provide full service tutoring for families looking for someone to guide them through the stress of middle school and high school. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or to book a lesson!

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have tutored Algebra I to dozens of students since 2008. In addition, I teach at a private middle school, where I have taught and tutored Algebra I both in the classroom and one-on-one. I work with kids of all abilities, from kids with learning differences to students who are above grade-level in their math classes, and everyone in between or in combination. I make my tutoring sessions fun, and I show my students the secrets of math while giving them confidence in their abilities.
ISEE

ISEE

I have been tutoring the ISEE since 2008. In that time, I have tutored dozens of students on all aspects of the ISEE: Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, and Mathematics Achievement. I can provide students with specific, tested strategies to improve their scores across the board.
SHSAT (NY HS admissions)

SHSAT (NY HS admissions)

I have tutored the SHSAT in all of its iterations since 2008. In that time, I have tutored hundreds of students both 1-on-1 and in small groups. I have tried-and-true strategies that will help students beat the test makers and score high on their SHSATs. If you have your eldest kid work with me, I guarantee you'll send their siblings when it's their turn!
