My Core Philosophy: For any tutor to be effective, he/she must have the ability to create an atmosphere conducive to learning - students must feel comfortable to ask questions at any time and have an assurance they are not being "judged" for any inquiries being made. I have been a private math tutor for over twenty (20) years and am certified to teach secondary mathematics within the state of Texas. I have taught middle & HS math for over ten (10)...

Great Tutor!

Jim is very patient and knows his math. He helped my son understand some advance algebra to prepare him for the TSIA 2. My son is looking forward to more tutoring sessions.
