Your child may have been impacted by the changes in educational delivery which resulted in learning delays or gaps that make it difficult to keep up in class.  My passion is to identify problem areas and provide simplistic instruction to get your child back on track.  I am patient and have experience working with students at the middle-school, high-school, college, and university level.  

We work as a team to improve your child's grades and/or help them to get ahead.  Detailed feedback can be provided to the parent at their request. To be successful, my preference is to communicate with the parent to develop an effective tutoring plan.  Previous exams, topics covered in the class, and if possible, a class syllabus are useful in personalizing the plan.  

If the listed schedule does not meet your needs, please email a schedule that works best for you and your child.
