    Our son was failing his Geometry course. Noel took time to understand where my son was struggling starting from the beginning. He was great at helping him understand the whole picture. He would explain things in real world examples or provide scenarios that my son could relate to. By the end of the semester my son had a much better understanding of math and his confidence was increased tremendously. Noel also taught him strategy and testing skills. He passed his final with a 91%. We will be using Noel again for the next year and I would highly recommend him.

    Frequently asked questions

    I provide a first no charge, no obligation tutoring session to get acquainted and see if there is a match between me and the student's needs.  

    I have students show me problems that they find difficult from their text books, homework and tests.  I ask them to show me their approach to solving it and then assist them.

    I also teach a test taking system that eliminates panic, running out of time or mind freeze.

    Graduate degree in Mechanical engineering.  My undergraduate and graduate level courses in mathematics and physics far exceed those taken by most mathematics and physics instructors.  Also, I use the concepts of algebra, trigonometry, calculus, etc.  and physics almost daily in my professional work

    $50/hr for individual student

    $45/hr each for two or more students

    Soon after my graduation, I taught part time at my alma mater, San Diego State University

    Middle School through undergratuate college

    This Spring, I was retained to tutor a Junior, taking geometry around mid-term.  He was flunking at the time.  After two weeks tutoring he had his next hourly test, on whcih he got the highest grade he had achieved thus far, 71%.  Four weeks later we had our last session prior to the final.  His teacher had told him if he got 76% on the final, he would pass the course.  I asked his mother to text me when the results were out.  A week later, I received the text:  he had achieved a 91% on the final and a "C" in the course.  It brought me to tears.
