My son is currently in 7th grade and has had his fair share of challenges with grasping important math concepts. Unfortunately, when my son was in the 4th grade the pandemic hit and he was forced into virtual learning. During this time, he did not learn the integral math concepts he desperately needed to understand in order to excel mathematically after elementary. Enter Mr. Cottone. Since working with Mr. Cottone the entire Fall semester of 7th grade 2x/weekly , my son finished the semester with a 97% in math!! My fiancée and I were pleasantly surprised at how the As started rolling in just after my son's first month of working with Mr. Cottone. I could go on forever about how grateful we are to have found Mr. Cottone. He is punctual, professional, and most importantly really knows his stuff! I love how he uses technology to explain complex math concepts during the tutoring sessions as well. If you are in search for an A+ tutor there's no need to look anywhere else, Mr. Cottone is the only choice!

Mr.Cottone has the ability to explain the math topics in an easy way which different from my son’s high school teacher. My son said, it’s very interesting that the material is so easy when Mr. Cottone explains, when our school teacher explains that sounds confusing and complicated. Mr. Cottone is helping my son to refresh, catch up and stay on track with the math classes. My son took already several classes with Mr Cottone in order to prepare himself for the math tests, and he is very satisfied with the tutoring classes and his progress.

My daughter was struggling with understanding concepts in her math class. We were looking for a tutor that would help and Robert has exceeded our expectations. My daughter is more comfortable and enjoys math since working with Robert. She looks forward to her math sessions and has improved from a D to A+. Thanks Robert we are lucky to have you!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Special offers: $600 for 8 weekly sessions. $20 Thank You credit for every successful referral. Please inquire about the details!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I ask for new students to send me information regarding their course and course materials (textbook, etc), copies of their graded work (quizzes and/or tests), and questions/topics/assignments we will be working on in our first session. Graded work helps me determine which areas to focus on when reviewing past concepts, and current assignments help me tailor our work to best support students as they learn in class.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BA in applied mathematics from UC Berkeley, an MA in teaching K-12 mathematics, teaching credentials from California and Arizona, and National Board Certification. I have been a classroom teacher for 14 years, 13 of those teaching high school mathematics. I have taught in international, independent, private, and charter schools. I have developed curriculum that is problem-based, and I also have prepared students for the math portions of standardized exams. I have tutored university students pursuing degrees that have mathematics requirements.
