My teaching philosophy is based on the notion that math is fun and practical; the best way to learn Math is by doing it. Through personal experience, I truly believe that learning math is a highly profitable investment for any individual both intellectually and professionally. Whether you need preparing for the college entrance exam or need help with the university course-work I can help you there!

Moreover, as a professional data scientist and programmer working in the financial sector I am deeply familiar with various applications of mathematical and statistical data analytics and can help navigate your talent for entering the business world and the job market. Please feel free to drop me a note to learn how I may help you.

Super helpful tutor.

Al was extremely helpful with explaining statistical concepts and how to calculate simple and multiple regression (using R) for a MBA statistics class. He was patient, friendly and never made me feel like I was asking a dumb question. I ended the course with an A- which was truly amazing because the professor was absent and didn't answer questions and the materials didn't coordinate with the exams/exercises. I have Al to thank! Highly recommend him for statistics students.

Thanks John for your feedback. It was a pleasure to work with you. Good luck!

Excellent Tutor

I left my first session feeling much better and excited to continue a weekly session. His patience and ability to help you conceptualize why we are using a specific function is something that will benefit me well beyond this class.

Al was an excellent tutor. I gave him my materials before our lesson and he reviewed it and got prepared for when we met. He was up to task and very smart with R and R Studio. He is knowledgable in statistics as well. He helped me out on my project even after our tutoring . I will say he his very kind and patient after I asked him so many questions, he still helped me.
