“Dr Stan”, experienced tutor, loves Math, understands kids
With my unique background and education, I can work successfully with a wide variety of students who have a wide variety of “issues” with learning math. I understand where the problems are, and how best to get past them and onto a confident path to math success.

Testimonials
Susan M. from Sonoma, CA Our daughter has really been struggling with what will probably be one of the toughest classes she will ever take- a combo class in Algebra II/Physics. When things got desperate we decided to find a private tutor. Stan is really helping our daughter understand the material. He is good about trying different approaches to make sure she understands the material. He has a sense of humor and knows how to encourage cooperation and interest in the material. We highly recommend Stan as a tutor. This recommendation comes from myself, my husband and our daughter!
Janis W. from San Rafael, CA It is hard to make a connection between all these formulas and graphs, etc. with "how would you actually use this in the real world?" Without that magical connection, it is so much harder to grasp. Today Stan said, "Let me show you how we can make a graph so you can figure out how long it is going to take you to finish that essay you are working on for your other course." He walked me through a formula, we plotted it and all of a sudden, by virtue of being able to see an every day application in MY life, it made more sense. Bravo, Stan.
Ruth P. from Novato, CA Stan is very patient and gets my daughter to talk. She is able to see where she understands or doesn't understand. Stan explains new concepts clearly in a way that my daughter can understand. He uses a small white board, which is also very helpful.
Tom F. from Novato, CA Stan has been tutoring my daughter in algebra for several weeks. My daughter's understanding of algebra has improved as has her confidence and math grades. Stan has a great approach and developed a good rapport with my daughter. I highly recommend Stan if you are looking for an outstanding tutor. Thanks, Stan!
