About Chris

Bio

You should give me a try. You can check my reviews here on Wyzant.com.

I completely get that not understanding your math lessons is incredibly frustrating, but honestly, I can say that I have never met anybody that hates math. I have met people though who hate how math makes them feel when they don't understand it. However, I have found that once students understand the lesson they are studying they begin to feel invincible.

I have a thorough understanding of the material, and I am good at explaining it in simple, everyday terms. If you select me to be your tutor, I can determine what you are struggling with, and find ways to make the math you are studying understandable, relatable, and maybe even fun!

As a tutor, there is nothing more satisfying than helping a student who was struggling get the highest grade on a test in his or her class. Give me a try and maybe that will be you.

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

While it is true that reviewing content for the ACT will help improve your results, there are a number of strategies to taking a standardized test like the ACT that can dramatically bring a greater result. I can help in both areas. If you're interested in trying me out, let me know.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

This is a subject I have taught and tutored a great many times. I can help you brush up on the content and we go over some test taking strategies that can be surprisingly helpful for improving scores.
Calculus

Calculus

I’ve taught Calc 1 over 20 times and Calc 2 a dozen or so times.
GED

GED

I have 11 years as a full time GED instructor. I’ve helped hundreds of students pass the GED test. I’m especially proud of helping former students who reeeeeeaaaaaaallly struggle in math.
Geometry

Geometry

Back when I was in high school at James I. O’Neill HS, I scored a 100 on the geometry Regents Exam. I taught some geometry while student teaching at Shaker HS, and for 3 years at AA and AAG.
GRE

GRE

I have 30 years of teaching experience and 10 years tutoring experience. I have taught all types of math. I have a 5-star rating here on Wyzant and a 4.4 rating on Rate My Professors. I can help you brush up on your math skills and show you some test taking strategies.
Precalculus

Precalculus

When I was in college, I did some private tutoring. In February I got called to help a Pre-Calc student whose highest grade that year was a 78. I tutored him for 2 hours to prepare him for a big test. When I returned the following week he and his parents were excited to show me he had gotten a 102 on that test. Now in no way can I guarantee that kind of success, but I think I’ve gotten better in the last 30+ years.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I taught SAT prep at the 200 year old private school that I taught at in New York.

Knowledgeable and easily understood

Extremely good communication and knowledgeable. He patiently help the student understand the problems. The students grade went from a C to high B on the first test taken, and only after one tutoring session.

Great Teacher

I have met with Chris once so far, but will be seeing him again. He is very knowledgeable, gifted and was able to explain the basics of Statistics that I needed. he has a unique way of teaching that flows like a conversation, and at the end of the conversation you are able to understand the concepts discussed! I would highly recommend him if you feel lost in Statistics.

Vonnie, 1 lesson with Chris

Chris is very knowledgeable and a great tutor.

Chris helped me with quadratic equations and linear equations. His knowledge goes beyond those subjects. I would choose him again and definitely recommend him to others. I was very happy with my progress. Thank you.

Great Communication

Chris was able to jump right in and started with the basics to make sure our senior is ready to start AP Calculus when school starts.
