About Allen

Bio

I am a recently retired high school mathematics teacher with 43 years of experience at both independent and public high schools. During that time I have taught all standard high school mathematics courses at basic, college preparatory and honors levels. I also have experience in teaching small groups of students during summer school sessions. Besides tutoring individual students I always made myself available to give individual extra help to students in my classes.

My broad background...

I am a recently retired high school mathematics teacher with 43 years of experience at both independent and public high schools. During that time I have taught all standard high school mathematics courses at basic, college preparatory and honors levels. I also have experience in teaching small groups of students during summer school sessions. Besides tutoring individual students I always made myself available to give individual extra help to students in my classes.

My broad background enables me to communicate effectively with students of varying abilities. I do individual preparations for each tutoring session. During the session I want to give the student a complete understanding of the concepts covered as well as examples for the students to work through in order to gain mastery of the concepts.

The courses in which I have the strongest background are Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Precalculus and Trigonometry. I have taught and tutored these courses at college preparatory and honors levels.

I am generally available from 9 AM to 9 PM everyday, including weekends. I will travel to the student's choice of a tutoring location. MY base rate is $60.00 per hour. Lessons for small groups of students can be arranged.

I am looking forward to hearing from you and helping you achieve success in your study of mathematics.

Extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Excellent tutor experience

Allen was expert in helping prepare our son for a pre-calc Honors exam. He was patient, thorough, extremely clear in his explanations. He has a wonderful calm and focused manner, providing a supportive atmosphere while clearly demonstrating rigor and expertise. I recommend him highly and without reservation. It was a superb experience and we will reach out to Allen again for math tutoring.
