About Parker

Bio

I received a 5 on the AP tests for AP physics 1, AP physics C, AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC, and a 35 composite on the ACT. I thoroughly loved being educated and discovered during high school that I had a talent and love for teaching others in and out of the classroom. The primary subjects I tutored were STEM with Algebra and Calc AB/BC being my best, however I never "officially" tutored as a job until college. I got into UF and continued learning and helping my classmates, but I also discovered...

I received a 5 on the AP tests for AP physics 1, AP physics C, AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC, and a 35 composite on the ACT. I thoroughly loved being educated and discovered during high school that I had a talent and love for teaching others in and out of the classroom. The primary subjects I tutored were STEM with Algebra and Calc AB/BC being my best, however I never "officially" tutored as a job until college. I got into UF and continued learning and helping my classmates, but I also discovered another private tutoring platform. I worked for that platform for around three years, teaching both high school and college students in a variety of STEM subjects. These sessions were usually one-on-one. I had an excellent time and was consistently given positive feedback.

My method of tutoring has two focal points
1) Understanding where a client is at with both understanding of a subject and capability to succeed when given coursework/tests. Wherever you are and whatever gaps in understanding you have is ok, I will deliberate on the most appropriate and important method for your success.
2) Understanding how to convey what a course is asking of its learners. Patterns of questions, ways that tests try to "trick" or "distract" you, etc. Things that require more than an understanding of the subject to navigate easily and can be understood better when broken down and explained.

Parker is awesome!!!

Parker was a huge help in tutoring my son in college calculus!!! I don’t think he could have made it through without his help. Highly recommended! Thank you, Parker!!!

Great strategies applied to specific problems

Hi did a great job explaining the why's of the correct and incorrect answers. He was very good at explaining strategies within the context of the current problems and how to apply those strategies to future problems. Daughter found it very helpful.

Andrew, 1 lesson with Parker

Excellent Tutor 100% recommend

I wholeheartedly recommend Parker to anyone learning calculus and to anyone taking AP Calculus BC. Parker is dedicated, flexible, patient, and deeply knowledgeable about calculus. He's the only teacher who is always able to find out exactly what will help me learn the subject the best. I went from a predicted 2 on the AP Calculus BC exam to getting a 5 on the exam after taking classes with Parker and also loving the subject.

Excellent Tutor

Parker taught me AP Calculus BC and was a huge help throughout the year! I was able to get a 5 on the AP exam and couldn't have done it without his easy to understand explanations, resources, and notes. Highly recommend!

Jamie, 21 lessons with Parker

Phenomenal tutor

My high school junior only did 3 sessions with Parker but within that time he managed to work some kind of magic, explaining calculus in a novel, memorable way that transformed my son's thinking. He went from a 79 percent score in one test to 100 percent two weeks later. There's a reason Parker has so many glowing reviews, he's an incredible tutor.

Luke, 3 lessons with Parker

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Has very flexible timing for meetings and knows a lot about the course and material. Furthermore, he really knows what the test makers are looking for and helps you prepare not just to know the material but how to take the test. Highly recommend!

Great Advice from Parker

Parker was able to improve our son’s ACT score composite by 2 points, English by 4, and Reading by 2 in just four sessions! Easy to understand and provided great advice. Thank you!

Tammy, 4 lessons with Parker

My 18 year old son approves!

My son is a senior at a very academically challenging high school taking Calculus. He has been very helpful in explaining concepts to my son and helping with homework. He is super responsive on Wyzant with requests and has been able to accommodate same-day requests, which is great.

Maya, 3 lessons with Parker

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Parker tutored me for ACT math. He gave me 100's of questions, multiple skills, and made sure to explain all topics. He's very resourceful and patient when it comes to tutoring hard concepts in ACT.
