About Me
I specialize in mathematics, particularly at the high school level, and I also have experience tutoring other subjects. I also have done SAT prep for the mathematics section of the New SAT and am very familiar with the recent changes to the exam. My belief is that everyone is capable of learning with enough time, explanation, and practice, and I hope to pass this on to all the students I work with. For this reason, I believe in teaching students how to think and problem solve, rather than just having them memorize patterns or facts.

Q&A with Ben
I like to first work through problems step-by-step, asking questions at each step to make sure they are following along. This will quickly reveal any weaknesses in conceptual understanding. Then, I walk the student through a similar problem without just telling them how to do it. Next, I have the student try a problem on their own. Working through different problems that require different skills teaches the students that they are capable of learning new material and are able to apply it, which helps them feel more confident and capable in the subject.
