Don't wait until your children get behind and are having difficulties with math. Get them started on the road to success before that happens, so they are prepared.

I specialize in working with students who are struggling, because I have developed tutoring methods to unlock any blockages. I usually start with diagnostic tests to determine missing gaps. As the gaps are filled, students gain confidence to catch up and move forward to more advanced lessons.

Please see my high ratings and and excellent reviews.
I look forward to working with you and to seeing your children emerge confident and successful.

Respectfully yours,
Richard

I have taught common core math from elementary up to grade 10, for over 20 years. I get exceptional results with students who are struggling and falling behind. With diagnostic testing and targeted tutoring, gaps in understanding are filled with students gaining confidence. The results are outstanding, as shown by my reviews.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

With over 20 years of experience in both teaching and private turoring, I have developed methods to unlock the blockages that so many students encounter. Often, just a few lessons with diagnostic tests and remedial catch up work is all it takes to increase confidence and move forward. In one case a student's grade level went up 3 levels !

Fantastic Tutor

Richard is superb. My son has never been so attentive as he is with Richard. They just concluded their second session (today, October 6, 2011) For both of the first two sessions, my son spent one and a half hours of intense work on Algebra 2. Richard is on time and very focused for the entire session.

Extremely Helpful Tutor!

Richard has been tutoring my daughter for 7th grade math for over a month. He started with a diagnostic test to figure out where she needed help and has given her the tools to build confidence in her math work. He is patient and explains everything in a way that she can easily understand. He encourages her when she makes mistakes and positively corrects her. My daughter has had peace of mind knowing that any difficulty in math that she has during the week can be brought to Richard’s attention and he will tackle it during their session. Richard is an amazing tutor and we are lucky to be working with him this school year!

Huge Results!

We selected Richard over other tutors based on interviews and cost. It has proven to have been an excellent choice. Richard patiently worked with our son over a series of sessions and was eventually able to bring he grade up 3 levels. Nothing short of exceptional results! We started out with 2 to 3 lessons in a week, eventually backed down to 2 and only recently have backed off to 1 per week. If he has challenges we will bump it back up. Overall Richard has been all that we could ask for in a tutor and our son enjoys the sessions. Thanks, Richard!

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!

Richard was helpful and met my son where he was at and patiently brought him along!! He ascertained the materials that my son needed to master and step by step took him through the method. He always check to make sure my son understood the presentation.

Getting Good Results.....good focus during sessions

Richard has brought good focus to my son's tutoring sessions. It has made keeping my son on schedule with the required class assignments much easier. It also has taken a good deal of pressure off of myself to attempt to relearn material that I haven't seen in 25 years. It has been a very good decision to get my son on a consistent program with Richard.
