I possess certification to teach mathematics from the Massachusetts Department of Education and has been an on-call substitute teacher for the Town of Westborough, MA. Additionally, I have prepared students to excel on the math portion of MCAS...
Reviews
Rob reviewed how to use sum, division, multiplication, subtraction, and averages on large data sets in Excel. He also taught me how to use VLOOKUP. I like Rob's style of teaching. He was concise and patient with his explanations. He also explained the details very clearly and made them understandable. Rob has helped me better understand Excel because I am not an everyday user of it but I will be in the future. His teaching will definitely help me become a better user of Excel. I would recommend Rob to anybody looking to further their understanding of Microsoft Excel. -Ilydio Polachini

Rob is tutoring my 10th grader with Geometry. He was very responsive to set up initial sessions and my daughter finds the tutoring sessions very beneficial. Rob has quickly developed a rapport with her and he is very familiar with what her teacher is expecting. He provides helpful details in support of content mastery.

Rob took an interest in my project and shared many tips on how to set it up in Excel. He obviously has advanced skills, but still talked at my level and patiently explained details. He was great to work with and I look forward to future lessons. Thank you Rob!

I very much appreciate Rob's approach to preparing for a tutoring session. Before working with my son, he took the time to call me and learn about what topics he needed tutoring on, my son's general background, learning style, etc, and inquiry exactly what should be covered during the hour session. With my daughter's session he asked for samples of her homework to be sent along beforehand so he could better use their time together. Afterwards, he was very quick to provide his feedback and assessment as well as letting me know when his next window of availability was for another session. All this expedience and thoroughness was extremely appreciated by my family.

I worked with Rob S. on Microsoft Excel, he was very skilled at helping me understand the software. During our lessons we worked through practice tests. Rob helped me become much more literate in Excel over a few sessions. Anyone struggling with Microsoft Excel or other academic areas should reach out.

My son had a previous excellent tutor for Algebra Honors through Wyzant but due to scheduling conflicts we had to reach out to Rob at times,suitable to us. Rob was very accommodating and met my son within 2 days. He worked with him patiently for the midterm examination and even emailed answers that he did not have time during his lesson. My son was very comfortable with Rob and was more confident with his midterm exam. Given the short time Rob had with my son, he was still able yo identify deficiencies and build his confidence with new strategies

Rob has been helping my daughter with midterm preparations for Algebra 2. Just after two lessons my daughter aced the test! Rob has an effective teaching style tailored to a student's needs that comes with a lot of experience. In addition, he is well organized, punctual and responsive. We will continue to have math lessons with him.

Rob was very helpful and helped me to prepare for an upcoming test. He was very nice and knowledgeable. I don't feel like I need a tutor on a weekly basis but when I need more help I will definitely call Rob. Rob came to our house right on time and introduced himself to us. He was very professional and very nice. I would definitely have him back to the house if Josh needs more help in the future.

Rob has been working with my two 8-graders for the last 8 months. I am very grateful for the opportunity to know Rob. He has an outstanding personality and teaching skills. My kids have made so much progress with his help that, as they both say, they would not imagine it was possible to do. They used to be ?okay? with very low grades and now they are confident and hunger to get only the highest possible. My parent life has transformed from constant anxious to a completely relaxed state. I know that my kids are doing great. Thanks to Rob! Rob has my highest recommendations that I can only provide.

I have had the pleasure to work with Rob. He is an excellent instructor, knows his information, explains in great detail and he is very patient. Rob is very professional and possesses great listening skills. He makes time available to work for your schedule and always follows up. I would highly recommend Rob as a tutor.
