Brandon Schumacher
Bio:
My name is Brandon, and I’ve been a tutor for over seven years, working both in-person (in New York) and remotely with high school and college students locally and across the country. I specialize in ACT and SAT preparation, as well as math from pre-algebra through calculus 4, biology, chemistry, physics, and programming. As a Floridian and a graduate of Cornell University, I now call the beautiful Finger Lakes region of New York home.
My goal is to ensure every student I work with is successful. I tailor each session to the individual needs and learning style of the student because I know that everyone learns differently. When a concept is challenging, I find alternative ways to explain it, breaking it down to make it easier to understand and learn.
When I’m not tutoring, I enjoy watching college football, hiking, running, kayaking, and spending time outdoors with my two dogs (and assistant tutors), Apollo and TeddyRex. I’m passionate about helping students reach their full potential, and I take pride in fostering their confidence and academic growth.
