I am certified to teach both Mathematics and Physics for grades 7-12 in CT.

I currently have 12 years experience teaching high school mathematics. My strategies as teacher and tutor, is to promote an understanding of the concepts of the problem in order to formulate a solution strategy.

I am also an A+ certified technician with a specialization in Dos/Windows environments. This includes hardware and software installation, troubleshooting and repair. I have over ten years of experience in the electronics industry, and have a working knowledge of Basic, Dos, Perl, HTML, Java and JavaScript programming languages. With this background, I am more able to show the student applications of the ideas incorporated into the mathematics or physics problem.

So, if you need help with your high school Physics or Mathematics homework, or help to prepare for your SAT’s, ACT Math or Physics; I’m your tutor!
