Where will we meet?
Online Tutoring:
Meet with me online from any location worldwide. We will use the platform of your choice, such as Zoom, Facetime, Google Meet, Skype, and so forth.
​
In-Person Tutoring:
​
During COVID-19-restricted periods, social distancing guidelines, including mask-wearing, will be followed for all in-person meetings.
​
When weather permits, meeting outdoors in a backyard, a park, or another quiet public space, can be a great option for tutoring sessions. As we work we'll get fresh air and stay germ-free.
For indoor meetings, usually a local library near both of our homes is the best place to conduct a quiet, secure tutoring session.
In some instances I will travel to a student's home, with parent(s) or guardian(s) present.
​
My typical travel radius is within 25 miles of, or approximately half an hour from, zip code 07933.
Another option is to come to my home for a session.
