Rain in a hot day, ice cream on the beach, all day long playing in the mud, dog licks and kisses, and cat cuddles are still not as good as the feeling I get when I show my students how simple math is. I understand the simplicity and logic of math and I plan to share it with as many students as I can.

I graduated highschool from a small town in west Tennessee in 2020. I enjoyed running xc and playing tennis while in highschool. After a lot of hard work and studying, I found myself with an appointment at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. During the admission process, I learned a lot about what it takes to create the best application packet possible. Every person is different, and every application needs to resemble that, so I enjoy helping high school students craft the best representation of their successes as possible. Having graduated with a B.S. in Robotics and Control Engineering from USNA, I learned much about leadersh

Hello. My name is Teacher Anthony. I am looking forward to helping you in all areas of spoken and written English. I have been tutoring for over five years and I have many "returning" students who enjoy a class which involves back and forth questions and answers.

I believe teaching science and math is an integral part of my existence. I don't treat tutoring as a side job for making some extra bucks.
