I have been a teacher most of my life. After graduating from college, I began my teaching career at a high school in Pennsylvania which lasted 36 years. While teaching full time, I attended graduate school earning a Master of Science in mathematics. During those 36 years at a high school, I also taught part-time for a community college for 21 years. I also taught for several other colleges including Penn State. After retiring from my high school position, I moved to Florida and taught for 6 y...

Richard explains the concepts very well. He gives tips and shortcuts that make solving the problem easier. My sons feel he explains better than any other tutor they?ve had. He is clear and concise. Thanks to Richard they have their confidence back and they have ?A? averages once again. Now math is their favorite subject. They no longer get upset or discouraged when it?s time to work on math.

The tutoring session was very good but there are some very important caveats that I must mention. Richard did not review the necessary materials of my class that were important for me to adhere to for proper credit and went as far as telling me that it was my responsibility to make sure he reviewed them. This was frustrating because the Wyzant functions did not work in chat. I would compare this to doing sign language in the dark. In the end, he did display patience and knowledge and but did not respect me as a student.

My daughter worked with Richard to prepare for Precalc Honors Exam. He made difficult concepts simple and easy to understand. He was kind and she felt comfortable asking all questions. Richard is now her first choice when she needs a math tutor. I highly recommend.

My daughter didn't score well in her test and I enlisted Richard to help me with studies. I loved how patient he was and how he taught her and will enlist his help again.

Neha is currently helping my daughter in AP Statistics, on time much needed. He just jumps into the topic and any question that she has and clarifications she needed he is bang on. Feel blessed to have him.

My son has been taking lesson with Richard . He has progressed tremendously in Geometry Honors class with Richard. I am sure it will be very easy for him this coming year and could focus on other subjects. We are very blessed finding the teacher with such a high skill of knowledge and teaching method.

Richard is an excellent tutor. My son who is taking honor Geometry with him is progressing a lot. You can judge your son and daughter progress by reviewing the recorded class lecture. His teaching method is excellent and knew exactly where the students need more help. I am very happy with his work.

Richard helped my son with the Math portion of the SAT. Occasionally he would help him with Math from his class there at high school. Richard was so helpful and we highly recommend him. He is very knowledgeable and very patient. He watched my son do the math problems so he could evaluate his thought process in completing the problems. He left him short assignments to do in-between sessions and had him write out his work so he could evaluate the problem and process so he was able to help him along the way. My sons SAT score increased and we are so happy we reached out to Richard A for help. He is a humble man and only 1 time did he even get stumped on a problem from the SAT study guide, but they both worked it out together and made the realization that the SAT workbook was incorrect! Patience is a defining character of Richard A. Hire him...you will not be disappointed! He came to our home which was better for him to meet in person.

My son felt he really benefited from the session with Richard, who's a patient and experienced tutor. They went over a number of concepts together for AP Stats, and my son received advice on using a calculator to find what he needed to solve certain types of problems.

My son has been working with Richard for the past several months. Richard's support on all of the topics covered in my son's pre-calculus class has been invaluable and showed a significant change to the great scores my son has achieved on his assessments.
- Donna K. from New York, NY
Richard taught helped me with geometry because of him know I understand it a lot better. Richard teaches and breaks everything down so you can understand. After receiving help from Richard I feel like I will now start making better grades. I will most definitely be using Richard in the future when I need help with my geometry. Richard is the only one since I?ve been in advance geometry this year that actually taught me something.
