View ProfileI am a full-time math tutor with more than 22 years of experience in the Lamorinda area. I offer a full range of tutoring at my Moraga office and online. While my emphasis is on high school math, I work with students of all ages and abilities (including elementary, college and returning adults). The only kind of student I will not work with is one who does not want a tutor. The fact that I have been tutoring for over 22 years in the Lamorinda area gives me a few specific advantages. The most important of these is that it is likely that I am familiar with the expectations and styles many of the individual math teachers working at Miramonte, Campolindo, Acalanes, Monte Vista and San Ramon High, as well as private schools in the area, Bentley, Head Royce, Athenian and College Preparatory School. Please take a look at testimonials from both students and parents. I do have a good track record when it comes to turning math into a non-trauma for students (and their parents). Call (925) 247-8445.
