Experience
I earned my bachelor's degree in computer science from New York Institute of Technology and my master's degree in education from Touro College. Professionally, I'm a second career teacher. Prior to teaching, I worked for over two decades at IBM. As a tutor, I have over six years of experience, which includes working with students, who tried unsuccessfully several times to pass the New York State Regents exams. With my guidance and encouragement, they were able to finally pass.My specialty is in teaching freshman and sophomore high school math, but in the past, I've helped seventh grade through high school sophomore students. I can help students with almost any subject but I have a penchant for teaching math. I consider myself to be a highly logical individual, and math suits my logical nature perfectly. My aim with teaching is to help my students feel at ease with both math and with me. I work at providing guidance to my students to simplify the complex material and offer helpful tips on recalling subject details. The only thing I require of my students is that they bring their determination to these sessions. If they apply themselves, we will make progress together.Outside of the classroom, I enjoy listening to music, playing baseball, and traveling.
