Meet Bob JonesBob holds a BSE in chemical engineering from the University of Connecticut and an MBA from the Tuck School at Dartmouth College. Tutoring is his third career after lengthy sales and marketing positions in the manufacturing and health care industries.
Now in his eleventh year as a full-time tutor, Bob has personally led well over 600 one-on-one SAT and ACT preparations and guided the academic coursework of scores of students. You could say he began tutoring with his high school calculus classmates. He quickly saw that the best way to learn a topic is to teach it.
