Students with whom I work experience success. No matter what obstacles may be getting in the way of their school success, I can help students & parents identify and overcome these obstacles.
I have been teaching for over 12 years and I understand learning and curriculum in a way that enables me to help my students. Much of what I do is in the area of motivation and organization. I believe with the right approach and guidance all students can learn and do anything they want.
I conduct sessions at my location (E. 80th Street, Manhattan) or at the student's home (Different rates apply).
I have a vast amount of experience in the areas of executive function and overall organization (physical and cerebral). Another strength of mine is teaching students reading comprehension. I use specific strategies and skills that can help students visualize and understand what they read.
I have impeccable references.
Note: My guitar and bass lessons typically last 30-45 minutes and have a different hourly rate.

I have worked with Alan for five years. He is a gifted learning specialist who views each student through an individualized lens. Alan helps each student to understand who they are as a learner, and then tailors his lessons to capitalize on the strengths of each student while also building the weaker areas to maximize each child's full potential. Alan brings a broad range of skills and materials to reach every need and subject area. If he does not already know it...he will learn it. Alan
