Introduction
Welcome, students and parents! As a longtime teacher and educational psychologist (learning theorist), I've taught and tutored math, reading, writing, statistics (graduate level), and social science across five decades, working with students from every grade from second up to the doctoral level. We now know the pandemic set many learners back one to two years, with the most recent National Grade Card reporting that reading scores are down nearly 10 points, and nearly 40% of students aren’t able to do math at grade level. It’s high time to stop making excuses and instead, start finding solutions. My academic training has continued up to recent years. During my life, I've worked with thousands of individuals with a very wide range of learning and mental health challenges as well as students working well above grade level. That experience, coupled with decades of training as a learning theorist, enables me to provide an approach tailored to the strengths and needs of each student. I focus on mathematics, reading, writing, and statistics and use a wide variety of online materials I subscribe to, including practice materials that I create in real time and email to students. My mission in life has been, and continues to be, to help students of all ages and backgrounds gain the confidence they need to achieve at their highest levels. I would be honored to collaborate with you!

Todd worked with my wife for her Spring 24’ semester of College Math. It was the one class she dreaded and put off until she could not. I found Todd here before the semester began and it was the absolute best decision to make. It allowed her to work on the fundamentals with him and build on the lessons throughout the semester. Her confidence was boasted and towards the end of the semester, she was confident to perform the math without much assistance. Todd’s patience, flexibility, professionalism, and knowledge helped her understand the course and concepts which allowed her to build the self-assurance she needed to tackle her biggest doubt. She ended the semester with an “A” and continues to maintain a 4.0 gpa throughout her studies! Thanks Todd! We greatly appreciate you.

This last semester, I was required to take a statistics class that I had been dreading for quite some time. I had always struggled in math; the statistics material I was assigned was like learning a different language. After researching tutors online, I came across Todd Morgan’s profile and am so glad I did! I can honestly say that without Todd’s patience and knowledge, I would not have understood the concepts and been able to apply that knowledge to help me pass the class. He could break down the challenging material clearly and concisely, which allowed me to manage and understand my assignments, and he was very patient in his explanations and approach. He made it a collaborative experience and identified and guided me through what I thought would be an impossible class. I cannot praise him enough because finding and working with him through my statistics class was truly a blessing. I will contact him for future math and APA English papers and send my daughter to him for her first College Algebra experience. Again, you will not find a more knowledgeable instructor with patience and support than him. A+++ experience!!

I really like Mr. Todd for my son. He’s engaging and takes his time. He’s currently tutoring my son for cogat pre test. But just in the first session they are really discussing things and talking about everything. I will be hoping to keep him on even after the Cogat help. This is great for my son. Thank you!

Todd has been my 3 daughters’ math tutor for the past three years, and he’s been a huge help. He knows math inside and out, covering everything from basic arithmetic to advanced algebra and geometry. What really sets him apart is how he breaks down difficult concepts into easy-to-understand parts, making it much simpler for the kids to get it. He’s patient and takes the time to ensure they really grasp the material before moving on. For instance, he played a big role in helping my 9th & 10th graders in achieving A’s in a six week intensive honors geometry class for their high school summer school program this year. Scarlette has also shown impressive progress thanks to his tutoring. She was able to move up into a higher level of math class than the one she tested into at the beginning of the school year. Overall, his skill and approach have made a big difference in their math performance, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Todd is a great value and in high demand. We couldn’t recommend him more!

I started working with Mr. Todd when I was preparing to take the GRE as a part of my PhD applications. I worked with him for about 3 months and he was amazing! When I started, my practice scores for the GRE were a 149 for Quantitative reasoning, a 146 for Verbal, and a 3 for Analytical writing. A lot of my work with him was just getting exposure to the types of questions on the GRE since I hadn't taken traditional English or Math classes in about 4-6 years. He had lots of materials and sent me personal practice problems/tests. I met with him once per week and after the first two weeks, I was already seeing improvement with my accuracy and efficiency in answering questions. Mr. Todd had lots of tricks to help me remember English and Math problems which was really helpful. He is also very personal, passionate, and knowledgeable about what he does and working with him was amazing. His rates are very affordable compared to other tutors. As a current student, I knew I needed to find someone to help me with the GRE, but I couldn't spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on prep books, practice tests, and tutors. I attended virtual tutoring with him until I took the GRE and improved my scores to a 155 in Verbal, a 152 in Quantitative, and a 4 in Analytical writing. I would highly recommend Mr. Todd to anyone who is looking for a tutor for Math, English, Writing, or ACT/SAT/GRE test preparation/improvement.
