Hello!
My name is Justin. I'm a new arrival to NYC; I just finished up an MS from Stanford in energy and climate policy, and have started my PhD in Economics and sustainable development at Columbia.

My undergraduate was in chemical engineering and chemistry, so math and the sciences are my forte. I have been a tutor for the past 5 years, specializing in chemistry, physics, calculus, SAT math, and SAT critical reading. Over the past 3 summers, I have been a critical reading teacher for classes of 20+ sophomores/juniors prepping for the October and November SATs.

I prefer long-term commitments with my clients: some of the students I've worked with started as freshmen with me and I have worked through high school and college applications with them. I still have clients in CA that continue working with me long-distance through Skype. My preference is for high school students because it's the last chance to dispel any negative feelings in them toward math and the sciences. ;)

Very Smart Tutor

Physics review was very helpful. My son Anthony will most definitely be making another tutor appointment with you. The first review meeting was helpful, but he said he could use another session to make sure he understands each chapter review for the next test.

5-star review for Justin

My high school son has tried several math tutors on Wyzant to help prep for his upcoming AP test in Calc BC, and Justin stands out as someone who is knowledgeable and can efficiently explain concepts and problem solving strategies. I highly recommend Justin to anyone who is looking for help with Calculus!

First session

Justin was a very good tutor and I am impressed we were able to go through all the topics I was concerned about in 1 hour. I appreciate how patient and thorough he was with explaining his work.

Leah, 2 lessons with Justin

Knowledgeable and experienced tutor

He is very thorough and I liked that he writes down everything so that my son can keep good notes on hand after the session especially because my son is not a good note-taker.

Talented and considerate tutor !

Justin has been my daughter 's tutor for 28 months. He is not only an excellent tutor but also very thoughtful. He truly cares about his students. He will voice his honest opinion whether you like to hear it or not. I couldn't ask for more when it came to find a tutor for my daughter. I highly recommend Justin to parents who are looking for exceptional math and sciences tutor.

Knows math very well, most importantly, he can explain it!

Justin was able to help me with my probability class, he gave me a great recap on material from calculus 1, 2, and 3. He has a great way of explaining math and had so much patience with my questions. I highly recommend him without any reservations!
