Tutor for Math, Reading, Science and Computers
I believe anyone can learn any subject if they can associate with the subject matter. Part of that ability comes from the student, part from the teacher. I have the ability to present subject matter in a variety of ways depending on the student. I have taught grade school age children math with crayons and coloring books (and really bad artwork), teenagers writing, math and science with current events and their daily interactions and I have taught college students a full semester of accoun…
Testimonials
Helene V. from Fairfax, VA Thomas B. is a great tutor - more than prompt, prepared, patient, friendly and professional. If there were 6 or more stars to rate him, we'd do it.
Diane F. from Burke, VA Thomas is a very gifted teacher. He motivates our daughter. She has achieved the highest grades in math because of his great teaching! Thomas is the most naturally gifted teacher I have seen. The fact he is working with our daughter through a college level math class makes it very rewarding as a parent. Our daughter never felt comfortable with math in high school and college up to this point. Thomas has her excited to do well, makes the lessons clear and goes out of his way to make himself available to assist her. Her grades with three weeks left in the semester are 95, 90 and 70 (which will be raised). Thomas also instills a self confidence for our daughter in math as well as other academic challenges. We are confident that the new found success will carry over into our daughters daily life. We have asked Thomas to tutor our daughter next semester in her science class. Thomas has been a blessing to our daughter. He will make a great college professor teaching math.
Barbara B. from Clifton, VA Tom Brown was such an awesome tutor for my son recently! He patiently helped him through Accounting II, a class he had struggled with when taking before. Tom always came to the house when scheduled (even when it had snowed!), showed up prepared, and spent as much time as needed working through the intricacies of an accelerated online class with my son. He explained and showed in detail through worksheets and other materials in such a way for my son to finally understand the advanced Accounting and business concepts. The hard work paid off - my son received an "A" in the class! Needless to say, we were thrilled with Tom for his knowledge and professionalism. As my son continues with his Business degree, I hope to have the opportunity to tap into his expertise again for another class, if needed. We sure wish we had found Tom sooner. It was a great experience and we are forever grateful!
Carolyn W. from Falls Church, VA Tom tutored my son over the summer in Physics to support him through an online Physics course and prepare him for higher level Physics in the fall. Tom's approach to teaching and enthusiasm was exactly what my son needed and enabled him to grasp the subject and feel confident in the subject. Tom is patient and has a great ability to meet a student where they are, but still give the nudge that is necessary to challenge and motivate so the next level of success seems easily attainable.
Lisa H. from Vienna, VA I was having a very tough time with my MBA Managerial Accounting and reached out to Tom for help. He was able to quickly fit me in his schedule and was always on time for our sessions. A consummate professional, Tom brought a wealth of real-world experience to the lessons and was very patient as he thoroughly explained the convoluted parts of accounting to ensure that I understood them. I highly recommend him for his tutoring services and will continue to use him as I progress through my MBA degree plan.
