MS Rutgers • MS Rider University
6+ Years Tutoring

I have been tutoring for 6 years now in a vast array of subjects in mathematics. My love for teaching for began when I was pursuing my masters of science degree in chemistry at Rutgers University. As graduate students we were responsible for being teacher assistants, proctoring exams, and holding review sessions. After I obtained my Masters, I became an SAT/ACT math tutor. I have tutored many students and have helped them grasp difficult math concepts and help them tackle the SAT/ACT. My love for math began at an early age. It was always a subject I enjoyed and did well in. While I was obtaining my bachelors of science in chemistry, I had to take some very advanced classes, including calculus 1-3. I have also had a passion for math and wanted to use this passion to help students achieve their academic goals. Just recently, I obtained my Masters of Business Administration (MBA) with a concentration in finance from NJIT. I always had a love for business and thought having an MBA would help better my professional career. I firmly believe that education can not only open doors for you, but can make you a better individual. My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT math. These standardized tests are incredibly important for a student's path in education. I am well-versed in these exams and am knowledgeable on all topics they cover. I have seen a myriad of questions and know what types of things to look out for. I also stress to my students to that knowing how to take the SAT/ACT is just as important as knowing the material that you are being tested on. I also tutor pre-algebra, algebra I and II, pre-calc, geometry, and trigonometry. In my spare time I enjoy being with my family. I have 2 young boys that keep me very busy.

I always try my best to alter the session to fit the specific needs of the individual.

Christopher
MS Walden University • BA Rider University
9+ Years Tutoring

I hold a Bachelor's degree with dual majors in Elementary Education and English Literature, and a Master's Degree in Education with a concentration in Teaching and Learning. I have worked as an elementary school teacher, having taught second grade up to eighth grade. Additionally, I have tutored professionally throughout my career working with fourth graders up to master's-level students. My favorite topics to tutor are English and Math, and I bring a fun, model-based approach to my work with students. Because I understand every student has their own academic strengths and challenges, I make it a point to approach each tutoring session with patience and understanding while helping students to gain confidence through focused encouragement and gentle correction of mistakes. I truly believe education is the backbone of a well-functioning society, and so I try very hard to impart a love for learning into each student I work with. When not teaching and tutoring I enjoy playing guitar with my band, reading, and spending quality time with my wife, children, and extended family.

Johnathan
MS Fordham University • BA Rider University
10+ Years Tutoring

I started my career in nonprofit advocating for tort reform in the health care space, the right to prescribe for first responders, and health care reform for New Jersey State residents in 2010. A few years after that I graduated college and started a career in government with the Office of the Mayor of New York City. Here I demonstrated data driven change by working with the Office of Management and Budget to fine-tune procurement processes and spending for various programs. The following year, a position was offered to me by the New York City Police Department, to work for the Deputy Commissioner of Management and Budget. This soon turned into a position with the Police Commissioner's Office, working on neighborhood policing policy citywide. I have helped hundreds of people gain access to housing, jobs, hygiene, criminal justice reform, and affordable health care. In 2016 I was appointed by the Governor of New York State to be a local board member on the Selective Service Board in my neighborhood. By now I had traveled to China, Italy, Spain, England, the Caribbean, Canada, Mexico, and Germany, not to mention I had picked up two languages, becoming conversational in Mandarin Chinese and Spanish. Certainly, a lot has happened since I graduated college in 2013. Nevertheless, I feel like I'm only getting started.
