I live in Western Massachusetts and have been tutoring students in mathematics for the last 16 years. I have a B.A. in Mathematics from Oberlin College and am lucky enough to be imbued with a love for all things math related. My two greatest strengths as a tutor are my noticeable enthusiasm for the subjects I teach, and my ability to take difficult mathematical concepts and break them down into easily understandable pieces. I have experience working with students both eager and reluctant, ranging in age from 6 to adult. I am comfortable tutoring any mathematical topic ranging from elementary math facts to trigonometry and calculus, plus several college level courses. I also have extensive experience preparing students for standardized testing, including, state proficiency testing, such as the MCAS test and school admissions testing, such as the SAT and GRE. I am always willing to work with students and parents to make sure each individuals educational needs are being met, so please contact me with any questions. I am willing to travel within an approximate 25 mile radius of Northampton, MA.

Approved Subjects

Chess

Chess

When last rated by the United States Chess Federation I had a rating of about 1800. I have had multiple games I have played published with annotations in regional chess magazines highlighting the inventiveness of my attacking chess playing style. I also have tutored chess students in the past. I am well versed in all of the major phases of the game, openings and opening principles, middle game tactics and positional considerations, and important endgame procedures such as winning a king and pawn vs king endgame by ushering the sole pawn to promotion to a Queen or took.
