Hi, my name is Rob Schweitzer. I have been teaching for over 30 years and through the years I have gotten to know a number of strategies to help children not just learn material, but really understand the concepts behind what they are learning. This enables them to apply what they learn in one subject in order to help them with other subjects.

As a tutor, it is important that your child is comfortable with me, so I make it my priority to learn as much as possible about your child's interests and what motivates them to want to learn and keep them focused. I believe in the "whole child" approach to teaching, keeping in mind the intellectual/social-emotional and developmental aspects of each of my students.

I currently live on Staten Island and I am willing to travel to Brooklyn, as well. I look forward to hearing from you! Read less
