About Me

Interests:  Primarily writing, drawing, and acting. I also enjoy modeling with a CAD program and 3D-printing.  I enjoy tutoring because I believe that just because a student does not understand a concept does not mean they are incapable of it.  Often, it boils down to having to teach that subject to them in a different manner, which is where tutors come in, and the chance to assist students in both learning and confidence is a great one. Also, tutoring others reinforces my own understanding of the concepts, which helps me out later.

    Matthew came to our house last minute to help my son prepare for a geometry quiz. We were very grateful and pleased to see how patiently he taught my son concepts. He is friendly and approachable. He is patient and explains math in a manner that is easy to understand. We will be using Matthew again.
