Bio

I am a Certified Math Teacher. I love to help students realize the potential they already possess. Working in my current position I get to see students with all different levels of skills and it is truly my pleasure working with these students to be able to get them back on track. Most of my focus is on all levels of Mathematics so I get to sharpen my skills on a daily basis. I get plenty of experience working with my own kids which are 8 and 13.

I am a Certified Math Teacher. I love to help students realize the potential they already possess. Working in my current position I get to see students with all different levels of skills and it is truly my pleasure working with these students to be able to get them back on track. Most of my focus is on all levels of Mathematics so I get to sharpen my skills on a daily basis. I get plenty of experience working with my own kids which are 8 and 13. Teaching is also in my blood as both of my parents were educators.

My previous students have all said I have a way of explaining things that make Math seem easy. I think this is probably because I have a love of helping students learn Math. I try to break problems down into small easy steps and I ask students to not take short cuts until they have the confidence they need. I am confident I will be able to help you and change your mind about the dreaded words, "I can't do math."

Please contact me so we can discuss this further and set-up a plan to help you on your journey. I have a 2 hour cancellation policy so please make sure you are available when setting up a session. I look forward to working with you soon.

Philip does an excellent job connecting with a student and explaining Algebra.

My son struggled to understand Algebra and was falling behind. We tried a couple of tutors before making a selection. My son felt Philip explained things in the best manner for him. Philip brought him up to speed and continues to give him the much-needed support. Philip does a really nice job connecting and understanding a students frustration, he puts them at ease and has patience. Philip communicates well with not only my son. but myself. He is flexible with scheduling and generous with his time. My son who hated algebra now looks forward to his weekly time with Philip.

Philip was AMAZING!

My 15-year-old was so nervous. His regular tutor was unavailable and he had a test the next day, which he was not prepared for. I was also frustrated as his teacher had sent us a note earlier ion the week stating that he had not been doing well in class nor had he been coming to extra help sessions. After speaking with a number of online services, many which were very, very expensive, we found Philip. And what can I say, but AMAZING! My son called me after an hour and a half and was so happy. He said that Philip had helped him understand the problems in a way that he completely understood and was excited for the test! He then went on to say that he wanted Philip to help him each week, which for the price we are happy to support. Truth be told, I even picked up the phone and called Philip and thanked him. I am going to sleep much better tonight and so will my son.

Philip was able to help my son prepare by providing him one on one help. The online session was a good method. Philip asked ahead of time what he needed to cover, and prepared accordingly. Thanks!
