Hello. My name is Mark. I am an experienced teacher, tutor and paraprofessional. I have worked with learners from 1st and 2nd grade to their mid to late 20's.
Elementary Math, Reading, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, College Basic Math, GED preparation, SAT and ACT Math, Algebra2 are all areas where I can help you or your child gain confidence and work toward developing content mastery.
"If the learner hasn't learned, the teacher hasn't taught" was a message of one of my Education...

Connection!
Working on improving my son's SAT score. They had an instant connection and were excited as they went through problems together! Can't wait to see the results at the end

Mark was very patient with me.
Mark taught me easier ways of solving problems that I thought were too complex and I would never understand. My only regret is that I wish I would have found him sooner.

Great tutor!
Mark was able to quickly identify the area my daughter needed help with. He gave specific suggestions on what exercises she could do at home to improve her skills. Additionally, his written follow up was concise and helpful.

Mark is an awesome tutor!
We started with Mark in December 2014, a few weeks before finals. My son had a low D and after a few weeks with Mark he got a C for the semester grade. My son looks forward to his sessions with Mark, his teaching style is laid back and calm. He even checks in with me after quizzes and tests to see how my son did. He truly cares about his students. Mark is very accommodating with meeting times and is punctual. My son is more confident with the math and has been using various apps and websites that Mark has shown him to practice. We will continue with Mark, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with Math or other subjects listed on Mark's page.

Goes above and beyond!
Mark has truly been a godsend. He has tutored my 7th grade nephew for over a year and I have seen a huge progress in my nephew's ability to work though problems and in his academic progress. Mark goes above and beyond any expectations I had - he has even offered to contact teachers! Mark takes a true interest in the success of my nephew and he has great skills as a tutor. Update: Mark has now been working with my nephew for three years. My nephew just started high school and thanks to Mark, he is in accelerated Algebra 2 and accelerated Geometry as a freshman. Mark is incredibly diligent, patient, and really seems to care about my nephew's success.

Saving the quarter and passing the semester!
Been working with Mark for two months now. My son's grade in Geometry before Mark's arrival was a failing grade of 50%. After some retake work on a quiz and test his overall grade is now up to 69%. The first attempts for a passing grade on quiz's and tests would have been nice, but with everything my son has failed to understand in the first two quarters. Mark has been challenged to recover that course work while also staying on top of the current homework topic and prepare for upcoming finals. As of today a second attempt on a failed quiz he scored a 72% and on a failed test he scored a 84%. Not out of the woods yet, but we are headed in the right direction. This is why I have Mark stopping by twice a week.

Great Tutor!
Mark is a great tutor. He has been working with our daughter in Algebra 2 for the past 3 months and her grade has improved by 15%. She has a better understanding and feels more confident in her test taking skills. We would recommend Mark to anyone who is needing help in Math.

Helped a lot with Math and English for an advanced graduate student
I was having trouble passing certain areas on the new basic skills test, TAP. I was just a few points away from an acceptable score for my teaching certification and Mark helped me get the score needed. I had not taken a Math class in over 11 years and needed much refreshing and Mark found a way to make math come right back to me. He explained concepts and showed examples of how to work step by step through problems and equations. He was always on time and very easy to communicate with. He also has a lot of new IPAD technology that makes it easier to interact and do work. Overall 10/10.
