Bio

To help you meet your academic goals, I will help you to learn more effectively and more efficiently. I ask what-if questions to check for understanding and help you see the relationships between concepts. I include strategies for studying, taking tests, and coping with the stress that students encounter. Between sessions, I will happily answer short questions off the clock by phone or by email.

To help you meet your academic goals, I will help you to learn more effectively and more efficiently. I ask what-if questions to check for understanding and help you see the relationships between concepts. I include strategies for studying, taking tests, and coping with the stress that students encounter. Between sessions, I will happily answer short questions off the clock by phone or by email.

For math students, I will help you translate the English in word problems into mathematical expressions that can be solved. You will improve your ability to use formulas and to know which formula to use. As needed, I will show you how to use the graphing calculator, Excel or both.

For accounting and finance students, I will walk you through how data flows through the accounting records from transactions to financial statements, how to analyze transactions so you can correctly record them, and how to interpret and analyze financial statements. As needed, I will show you how to use the financial calculator, Excel or both.

I have a bachelor's degree in math and a master's degree in accounting. I hold a Texas Lifetime Teacher Certificate in Secondary Math (grades 6 -12). I taught high school math in DeSoto, TX and Denver, CO. I taught supplemental math classes in the Dallas ISD in grades 3-6 for the nonprofit agency, Project SEED.

I have tutored students from grade 4 through graduate business school. I have been a private tutor in North Texas and Denver as well as a tutor at a community college and a university.

I am a certified public accountant with over ten years experience in public, commercial, nonprofit, and government accounting. I have taught accounting at the college level and bookkeeping in a non-credit adult education program.

ACT/SAT PREP

Brian is Very knowledgeable and patient. Has helped my son get a much better handle on his practice questions. He allows Jake the opportunity to demonstrate what he knows and steps in when appropriate to correct and/or explain with great patience. Brian has a mastery over every area covered so far in the practice questions.

Intro to Accrual Accounting

With no accounting background, taking my first online MBA class (financial accounting)...Brian was super helpful as I prepped for my exam. He showed up prepared with helpful basic/intro accounting resources printed for me and walked me through each problem on my practice exam. I appreciated that he took his time explaining.

QuickBooks Help Appreciated

He helped me develop a strategy and taught very helpful details. Also gave me a packet of particular instructions that he printed himself. And he volunteered to ask the company something and send me a message reply.

Excellent Statistics tutor

Brian is very helpful with discussing and explaining the calculations of probability, expected value, and variance for binomial distributions, Poisson and hyper-geometric distributions both manually and using Excel functions.

MICHELLE, 4 lessons with Brian

Punctual, Intelligent and easily Adaptable Tutor

Brian helped me with my Survey of Accounting course. We worked on an accounting cycle project together. He not only arrived on time but once he arrived we got right to work, focusing on the project and helping me along the way. Brian adapted very well to the situation I presented him with. I didn't have a way to print the needed information out, yet Brian was undeterred. He taught me as we went through the project giving me real life stories that he had faced as an accountant. I would recommend Brian to anyone dealing with accounting or math subjects as he was very professional and knowledgeable of the material I presented him. Brian is a very smart man that adapts well and has the desire to help in any way he can.
