Bio

Are you looking for great results when it comes to your SAT, ACT, GRE or GMAT score? Or are you looking for better Math or Physics grades? You have come to the right person.

Are you looking for great results when it comes to your SAT, ACT, GRE or GMAT score? Or are you looking for better Math or Physics grades? You have come to the right person.

I have tutored thousands of students over 20+ years and have spent countless of hours creating learning resources and perfecting my methods for improving students' scores and confidence. I have worked with many tutoring programs, schools, and courses and I know what works best. More importantly, I know how to get the best results! As an effective tutor, I have been rewarded as a top 100 Wyzant tutor nationwide.

SAT & ACT

My results speak for themselves: an average of 300+ points increase on the SAT and an average of 5+ points increase on the ACT. This is higher than any tutoring program or course out there.

I have tutored students at all levels. From those looking for a perfect score, applying to Harvard, Yale, MIT and the like, to students just keeping up in high school, looking for a score high enough to attend a local college.

Note: I only take on a limited number of students to guarantee that my students get the highest quality tutoring experience and sessions will be online.

MATH & PHYSICS

I tutor Math and Physics all the way up to the college level. I have a Ph.D. from one of the top engineering schools in the country and love math and science. Especially teaching it. I know how to explain and relate difficult concepts in a way that not only makes sense for the students, but will stick with them. Students often tell me: "when you explain it, it makes total sense, but when my teacher does, I have no clue".

Many of my students become the to-go-to person in class for classmates that need help, or even correct teachers when they make mistakes. The pride I see in their eyes (or their parents') is priceless to me and it's one of the reasons I love what I do!

Note: College classes $50 extra. Small groups possible too

Algebra 1,

Algebra 1

I have tutored Algebra ever since I was in high school. Unlike many, fortunately math comes naturally for me. More importantly I am able to explain the concepts in a way that makes sense to struggling students. I have turned many struggling students into successful math students that even enjoy it again and hope to continue doing that for a long time.

Calculus,

Calculus

I tutor Calculus up to the AP level (both AB and BC) and college level (Calculus 1/Differential Calculus and Calculus 2/Integral Calculus). I have several degrees in Engineering from Georgia Tech, so I have done more calculus in my life than was probably useful, but I love teaching others how to make sense out of calculus and how to simplify it so much that it becomes understandable. I have helped many calculus students, so send me an email and we can get started!
Geometry,

Geometry

Geometry is a more visual type of math and many students that are excellent in Algebra, struggle with Geometry. It doesn't have to be that hard if you have the right teacher/tutor and if you are willing to study (and memorize!) theorems and postulates. I have tutored Geometry for 10+ years and will help you 'see' math in an effective way.
Physics,

Physics

I have a passion for Physics. Everything around us can somehow be traced back to the laws of Physics, which I think is very fascinating. I have tutored Physics for over 15 years, including at Georgia Tech where I graduated from. Both high school and college Physics 1 and 2. I believe my success with students comes from being able to relate physics concepts to day to day experiences and examples. This makes it much easier to understand, and maybe even more important, it makes it a lot more interesting and fun for the student.
Precalculus,

Precalculus

Precalculus includes a lot of trig and that is scary. It doesn't have to be though with the right instruction. I love teaching others how to make sense out of precalculus and how to simplify it so much that it becomes understandable. I have helped many precalculus students see the light, increase their scores, and become the student to whom classmates go for help.

I love standardized tests and have scored perfectly on the SAT. I have been able to consistently help my students increase their SAT scores significantly by reviewing all math concepts that one needs to know for each test, and by teaching strategies like substitution, back-solving, and calculator elimination.

Trigonometry sounds scary to many students (and even their parents, still), but it doesn't have to be. With the right explanation it is really not that difficult, but unfortunately many teacher make it more difficult than needed. Students tell me often: "when you explain it, it makes total sense, but when my teacher does, I have no clue". Contact me to make more sense out of trig as well!

See all reviews courteous highly recommend prep great tutor prompt

Very knowledgeable

We went through several problems from a practice GRE test I took. He carefully explained to me what I missed and how to analyze the prompts. Also, he provided very useful tips on how to find patterns in the most common problems so I can easily recognize them in the actual test. Very helpful!

Augusto, 1 lesson with Dr. Anthon

Excellent tutor, knowledgeable and patient!

Dr. Anthon not only tutored my daughter's SAT math, but also taught how to solve problems. My daughter has improved a lot with his help. She became more confident to take the SAT test. I highly recommend Dr. Anthon.

Melody, 23 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Wonderful tutor who is knowledgeable and patient

Went out of his way to teach concepts that were not taught in school. Helped me understand the concepts and how I should apply formulas on conic sections. Dr. Anthon has been great on both Math and Science lessons. I have been to other tutors and Dr. Anthon is the best.

Vivek, 6 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Great tutor with good rapport

Just started with SAT tutoring and it's going well. My son likes him and is progressing nicely on the road to a better score. He gives homework for the sessions and that will prove helpful. Glad to start this process. We are very happy with the progress.

Arva, 11 lessons with Dr. Anthon

last minute help

Dr. A was able to help my son at the last minute before a test to gain some understanding of the material. Test results weren't great but much better than quiz the day before. We will continue with Dr. A until my son has a firm understanding and until his grade is back in the acceptable range.

Margo, 11 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Incredible tutor!

Dr. Anthon has been my tutor for math and science for the past 7+ years and he has helped me immensely! I cannot imagine finding a better tutor! It's very hard for me to understand math and science concepts, but he is one of the few teachers I've had that always finds a way to explain it to where it makes sense to me. He is very patient and understands how different people learn and is incredibly accommodating to all types and thinkers! 10/10!

Alyson, 18 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

AMAZING TUTOR!!! He’s been saving my math grades since I was in 7th grade and I’m a freshman in college now and I still meet with him every week!! He’s taught me geometry, trig, algebra 1 and 2, precal, calculus, statistics, and now math modeling.

CaroleAnne, 53 lessons with Dr. Anthon

SAT prep without a lot of time

Dr. Anthon did another amazing job. He has helped us in the past with my daughter and her prep on the ACT. We went back to him for help with our son on his SAT prep. He was amazing - AGAIN!!! Dr. Anthon was able to quickly identify where he needed help and focus on that with him and it really helped. My son had a pretty good score but we knew he could improve with some help from Dr. Anthon. He was scoring around 1260 before he worked with Dr. Anthon and within 4 weeks he was scoring in the 1400s and 1500s and even 1600 on one practice test. We will see what his score is on the actual test he just took but I'm confident it will be higher than his last actual test based on Dr. Anthon's help and the practice tests. Thank you, Dr. Anthon!

Kevin, 33 lessons with Dr. Anthon

Excellent tutor

Anthon has helped my son, a high school junior, become a lot more confident in his physics class. He is teaching him how to approach physics problems that is very helpful. Anthon is also helping my son to prepare for the ACT, especially with math where my son is already improving his scores. His communication is excellent and timely and he has been flexible with a tutoring schedule as my son has multiple extracurricular activities and sometimes needs to change last minute.
