I am an experienced teacher of 25 years. I have taught a wide range of subjects which include: science, math, English, history, health, physical education, and Spanish.

My teaching experiences have taken me to various schools where I have taught an interesting variety of students. Rare is the concept that I cannot help any given student understand the subject.

Learning can be at times difficult. I have the patience and understanding of student learning frustration. I am upbeat in attitude and will settle for nothing less that success. Every student can conquer their school lessons with my help. I look forward to teaming up with today's challenged learners and seeing them be successful.

My excitement about teaching is as high as it was when I started. Discussing subject matter is still one of my favorite things to do. My enthusiasm is infectious, and my greatest delight is helping students learn.

My college course work was comprehensive in format. I have studied chemistry, physics, geology, botany, biochemistry, microbiology, astronomy, and zoology. These courses often included laboratories in which I learned a wide variety of lab techniques. Although science is often thought of as a harder subject, I have the unique ability to make science sensible and relevant to any student.

If you feel helpless or discouraged about learning, I am the person that can help. Do not quit. Contact me and we will be winners together.

I have a BS degree in comprehensive biology education from the Ohio State University. I have also completed 12 credit hours towards my Master's degree from Bob Jones University. I am also a certified teacher in biology and mid-level science in the state of Pennsylvania.

I have taught courses in biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science. I am well versed in the content material in these subjects, and I have extensive experience in laboratory instruction. I have also planned and executed numerous field studies for these academic areas.

He is very patient and encouraging.

He taught me the correct way to assemble the Reed on the mouthpiece and taught me the correct way to hold the saxophone. He's also teaching me the correct fingerings and the different notes.

Great teacher, patient, kind and keeps it simple for an older adult beginner. I’m super excited to continue with lessons. He explained things clearly and went over it until I understood.

Cramming for biology final

Mark did a great job working with my daughter to get her ready for her final examine in honors biology. She finished the lesson feeling much more confident, and I appreciate Mark getting us in the last minute and knowing the materials so well to help her. He was able to put the material into context and help her understand versus memorize.

Natasha, 1 lesson with Mark

My boys really like him!

Easy to work with and easy to set up appointments. Two of my boys took lessons each playing different types of saxophones and said they worked on skills they didn't have before.
