Patient and effective math tutor
Glenn, 17 lessons with RichardRichard is a great tutor. He not only helped our son better understand the concepts and processes needed for Algebra, he also taught the importance of doing work beyond the school assignment. This was very helpful in preparing for both the SAT and ACT tests. Richard's firm and patient approach helped build our son's confidence in his ability to "do math." Thank you, Richard!
I have tutored over 1000 hours in subjects ranging from Pre-Algebra to College level Statistics and Calculus. I have also helped many students prepare for SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT and ASVAB tests.
I have a BS in Mathematics from Grand View in Des Moines and am now working on my Masters in Actuarial Science at the University of Iowa.
If you have aspirations of a career in the sciences, economics, finance, or even business, then mathematics is quite possibly the most important language to learn. ...

What an enthusiastic tutor!
My 15 year old son had his first Algebra 2 lesson with Rich last week and he really liked it. Rich explained math very well in a way that was easy for my son to understand. He's excited and looking forward to the next lessons. This makes us very happy parents.

Precalc
Excellent job. My daughter had been struggling with Pre Calc. After the first session with Richard she received an 18 out of 20 on her next quiz. Definite improvement!

A very helpful tutor.
Great at explaining and helping me understand some of the difficulties that I was having in Trigonometry. He is taking the time to meet with me in person and I very much appreciate that. He's a great tutor.

Great Tutor!
Richard helped me get better at manipulating equations where other internet-based resources fell short. He listens and knows how to uncover my mistakes and show me the right ways to get things done with equations without a lot of extraneous explanations. He's great!

Patient and Persistent
Richard is doing an excellent job tutoring our daughter in Algebra. He is patient with her when she gets frustrated, and is persistent when she wants to give up.

A solid approach
Rich is terrific. He listens, then explains how "he would" solve the problem. His approach is different (which is what I need) than what's provided in the course. I'd highly recommend.

Helpful tutor session
How to better understand the problems and what they are saying. Made it easier for me to take the quizzes. I scored the best score I have ever scored this semester.

Knowledgeable, friendly tutor
My daughter has had a hard time with math for years. Richard is incredibly patient, helpful, and explains things in a way that she understands and can apply. She is receiving tutoring in Adv. Algebra.

Knowledgeable with great teaching skills
Richard was great at using language that made things make more sense to me. He was clear, easy to listen to, and very patient. Better than any teachers I have had in the past few years.
