Hello! My name is Andy - I am an 11-year veteran of the U.S. Navy Submarine Force, and have since worked with both defense contractors and commercial nuclear power plants. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Systems Engineering from the U.S. Naval Academy, and a Master of Education degree from Norwich University. I achieved perfect math scores of 800 on both the SAT and the GRE. I have tutored many students, especially in NY high school Regents math and science courses, as well as college calculus and calculus-based physics, and I truly enjoy sharing my methods of understanding these subjects with others. I will happily provide recommendations from my former students upon request. Thank you for your consideration!

I tutored calculus and calculus-based physics for 2 1/2 years. During that time, I also taught Engineering Statics to a summer school student whose professor would only provide exam dates - he did not teach the course. Due to my teaching and homework review, this student received an A in the course - his recommendation is available upon request.

Perfect Tutor

Andy has helped me through the entire fall semester. I couldn't have asked for a better tutor! I have had to drop this class previously due to failing grades and right now I have an average overall grade of 96!! I couldn't have done that without his help!! His schedule was very flexible and he had no problem meeting with me a few times a week. If you need a tutor for college Algebra (or any Math class for that matter) Andy is a perfect choice!!

Easy to work with, very knowledgeable

My daughter really enjoyed learning from Andy. His subject knowledge is great, but his demeanor and ability to relate to students where they are is outstanding.

Helpful calc exam review

Andy and my son went over calc problems, mainly related to derivatives, before his college Calc I exam. Son thought Andy was knowledgeable and helpful, and accomodative in setting a time and location for the meeting. Would utilize Andy's talents again for sure -

Excellent HS Geometry Tutor

Andy has been a big help to my son with geometry. He is very patient and easy to work with. My son's confidence with the material has increased and he is now doing better in the class.

excellent tutor

Matt is a terrific tutor; he "knows his stuff' and is both patient and friendly. My son has been doing much better in his Business Calculus class since he started working with Matt.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Andrew was very knowledgeable and helped my grandson a great deal. He had been struggling through the year he now understands algebra1. One hour makes a difference. Thanks Andrew

Andrew is good at explaining problems in a way that makes it easier to solve.

Andrew is teaching my daughter trig. Andrew is patient and encouraging and helps her stay calm and focused in a subject she has felt lost and overwhelmed with.

Wonderful, patient tutor!

I can't say enough nice things about Andy! He is so patient with my daughter, answering her questions without making her feel stupid or uncomfortable. After he left, my daughter said, "I wish Andy was my math teacher." This is no higher praise from a teenager.
