Hello!
Thank you for considering me as a tutor. Here's a little bit about me:

Background:
I graduated from Cornell University with a degree in Operations Research Engineering, before working in finance for five years. I recently graduated from Columbia Business School and now work as in Consulting.

I’ve tutored more than 60 students, for 600 hours of instruction, in Dallas and New York high school and college curricula. At Cornell I was asked to consult for Cornell’s Learning Strategies...

Hello!
Thank you for considering me as a tutor. Here's a little bit about me:

Background:
I graduated from Cornell University with a degree in Operations Research Engineering, before working in finance for five years. I recently graduated from Columbia Business School and now work as in Consulting.

I’ve tutored more than 60 students, for 600 hours of instruction, in Dallas and New York high school and college curricula. At Cornell I was asked to consult for Cornell’s Learning Strategies Center, where I taught Calculus and Statistics for 2 years.

I scored in the 99th percentile on ACT Math, SAT Math and GRE Quantitative sections. I scored 5/5 on Calculus and Statistics AP exams.

Teaching Philosophy:
Students are often taught ‘how’ to attack problems with memorization, but rarely the ‘why’ behind the method of attack. All students can learn math ‘tricks,’ those who understand the ‘why’ can invent them. To this end I teach.

Why I tutor:
It's challenging and it's fun! It’s satisfying to learn a difficult subject, but it's even more fulfilling to give that understanding to someone else. Many students don't realize how intelligent they are until they've been taught in a way that accommodates their learning style. As I teach students new ways to learn, they teach me new ways to teach.

Great tutor, flexible and committed to the kid's success

Jonathan has been great working with both my son and his girlfriend as they work on their pre-calculus skills. He is patient and practical with the kids and is really committed to their academic success. I highly recommend Jonathan as a math tutor.

Awesome Pre Calculus Tutor

Johnathan has been working with my son on Pre Calculus for the past two months. He is very detailed, knowledgeable and informative. He has spent a lot of time going through problems in a step by step format. My son's problem solving strategies have greatly improved through Johnathan's instruction. My son and I highly recommend Johnathan!

Finally understand

After two other tutors that didn't explain concepts clearly, I finally understand the math! Johnathan is awesome! I'm so glad I found him.

Good tutor

Johnathan prepared me for the math portion of the GRE and taught me the material in only a short time. He was very patient and adjusted his teaching method to my individual learning style. I would rec this tutor if you are a student that needs a lot of help or just a little, he can get you up to speed fast. I am ready for my test now!
