Introduction

Hello, I'm Ron. Thank you for considering me as a mathematics tutor! First, please note that I can only conduct sessions if you are in the Eastern or Central time zone. I have a Master's Degree in Mathematics from a top school (UC Berkeley), an Education Specialist (post-Masters) degree in Math Education, and a co-major in Computer Science. I was a certified secondary-level mathematics teacher in the State of Georgia and the Province of Ontario. I taught mathematics at the high school level briefly, at a community college for two years, and at the university undergraduate level as a graduate student. I have tutored math for hundreds of hours. My tutoring approach is simple, based on Problem Solving. We go with the problems or questions that YOU are having. YOU set the agenda. Spending an entire session on a single question until you fully understand it is much more valuable than rifling through a big set of problems in a superficial manner. Above all, my goal is to boost your confidence in tackling mathematical challenges. Note that the quoted fee is for online sessions; in-person would be an additional $5 or more, depending on distance. That's per SESSION, not per hour. I would be happy to schedule a FREE 10-minute consultation phone or video call.

Ron is GREAT. After only 2 sessions my son has improved and became much more confident with his college math class. Ron is the only tutor who I could find that does in person sessions. I’m so happy I found him. You won’t be disappointed. He is patient and very knowledgeable.

He was extremely encouraging and an excellent tutor. He made a difficult subject easier to handle always offering guidance. After the lesson, I felt empowered and felt much more prepared for my pre-calculus class the following day.

I contacted Ron to inquire about tutoring an adult friend who was preparing for a math exam for a job interview; however, my friend had not seen these types of questions in years. Ron listened to my specific needs and answered all my questions. After speaking on the phone, I hired Ron for the job. He was professional, prepared and patient in his tutoring. Moreover, his tutoring greatly improved my friend's math abilities for the test. I recommend Ron for a math tutor.

Thank you, Bill. I haven't tutored too many adult students, so I really appreciate you directing him to me.

I cannot express how grateful I am for the math help my kids received from Ron (now with A1 Math Tutoring), through their last couple years of high school. Algebra, calculus, geometry, probability, statistics - strong with all of it. Obviously Ron is passionate about math, but more importantly he's very clear and patient, and sometimes adds a bit of humor, which makes him even more effective. My kids are now confident in their university math classes. And they are philosophy and psychology majors, not math/science/engineering (pardon the stereotype). A heartfelt thank you and strong recommendation for others!

Thanks Phil! Glad to hear that J & T are thriving!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The quoted fee is for online sessions. For in-person sessions, a travel fee of $10-$20 will be added, depending on distance. This is a flat fee per session, not per hour.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I try to find out how a student tackles mathematics problems in general, whether there are difficulties with specific varieties of questions, etc. This is best done by getting right into working on math problems.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Former certified Secondary Mathematics & Computer Science teacher in the state of Georgia and the province of Ontario. B.A., Mathematics & Computer Science: York University (summa cum laude) M.A., Mathematics: University of California - Berkeley B.Ed., Secondary Teaching in Mathematics & Computer Science: York University Ed.S., Mathematics Education: University of Georgia
