About Tom
My teaching experience started in graduate school at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where I won the Walter Eppenstein Award for Outstanding Teaching. Since then, I taught mathematics, physics, and engineering courses to college students of all backgrounds. STEM students who needed rigorous training, liberal arts students who needed patience and encouragement, and returning adults who needed me to start from Square One. I also taught test prep courses (ACT, SAT, GRE, GMAT) for The Princeton Review, and have over 3 decades of experience in tutoring students from K-12 through college. I am well-suited to meet all types of student needs, including yours.

Tom is amazing tutor. He is always well prepared, patient, and able to break concepts down to make them easy to understand. My son was having difficulty in his 7th grade advanced math class and within a few sessions he was scoring 90’s on his tests. He is very clear in his approach and easy to work with.
Tom consistently demonstrated integrity, fairness, and genuine care for his students' learning. As my statistics professor in college, he always took the time to explain complex concepts clearly and encouraged questions without judgment. He graded transparently, provided detailed feedback, and made sure we understood the reasoning behind our results. Beyond his professionalism, Tom created an environment where students felt comfortable admitting when they were confused-something that only happens when trust is earned.
Tom helped tutor me through physics, and I am not sure I’d have passed without his help! He made it fun, and explained things in a way that helped me grasp it much better (and just be done with it)!
Very smart and capable teacher - was my multivariable calculus professor in college and would recommend to anyone seeking tutoring! For reference, I was a mechanical engineering major and now have a successful career in aerospace within commercial jet engine development. Would definitely recommend!
Tom is the best math tutor I have ever worked with. We’ve had countless sessions for over a year now, working on pre-calculus/calculus work and SAT math work. He knows everything I’ve ever had to learn and can improvise without struggle when given work to look at, with short notice or no notice at all. He has a gift for explaining math concepts in a methodical way that’s tailored to your personal understanding. Every session we’ve ever had has been productive and undoubtedly worth it; I am a better mathematician because of him. Best math tutor ever! -Henry Burrell (18, NYC)
