I am a 58 year old man. I have a bachelor of science degree in biology/pre-med but I began college as a physics major so I have considerable background in most of the physical sciences and mathematics.

I began teaching in Kentucky in 1990 and continued to do so at various levels (K-12) until 2007. The majority of my teaching experience is with high school mathematics from pre-algebra to calculus, but I have also taught physics and chemistry as an adjunct professor at the college leve...
Reviews
Ellis helped me review some mechanisms for an organic chemistry final and was extremely helpful. He genuinely cares that you understand the content you?re learning, not just getting the correct answer. He applauds you for previous knowledge and doesn?t shun you for getting something wrong. He is very thoughtful and wants to see you succeed, I couldn?t recommend him enough as a tutor!

Cai and I reviewed linear equations in slope-intercept form, point-slope form, and standard form. We practiced graphing linear equations in slope-intercept form by hand. We discussed the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. We reviewed different methods for finding the solutions to a system of simultaneous linear equations. We practiced solving a system of simultaneous linear equations by graphing on the TI-84 Plus graphing calculator and also by using matrices.

Ellis worked with both my boys (9th and 11th graders) on geometry and pre-calculus. Ellis was very patient, kind, and helped out a great deal. Highly recommend!

Ellis is not only super-knowledgeable, but he knows how to impart that knowledge effectively. He?s been an immense help in tutoring my son in Trigonometry!
- Larry H. from Greer, SC
Ellis assisted my Son with his Intro to physics class for 2 hours. He was able to keep my Son engaged and was very patient and kind. We will definitely use him again!
- Mellisa J. from Smithsburg, MD
Mr Ellis is a great tutor. He always takes the time to explain the concepts and he isn?t worried about taking extra time on a concept if needed. He is very much a people person
- Theodore M. from Shreveport, LA
I book a session with Ellis for help with mastering physical and chemical foundations concepts on the MCAT. Ellis is very patient, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the content, and has a good understanding of the concepts as they apply to the test itself. I highly recommend Ellis to others looking for a tutor in the physical sciences and look forward to working with him again!
- Maritza L. from Norwalk, CA
Took the time to answer questions? asked questions to ensure understanding of content. Positive energy. Thorough knowledge of subject.
- Debi L. from Simpsonville, SC
Ellis R. was really helpful and got me prepared for my ACT. I plan to continue to work with him in the future.
- Aleah G. from Easley, SC
Ellis was quick in responding, on time, met us in the library at Furman, did everything he said he would do. My teen liked him and said he helped her better understand chemistry.
- Liz B. from Travelers Rest, SC
I reached out to Ellis late one evening and he messaged me back within minutes. He was able to tutor my daughter the next day. She understood by the end of the hour. Would definitely use again.
- Teresa A. from Greer, SC
Ellis has stepped up and helped out when in a bind with a Probability & Statistics class on a short notice. He is extremely smart and patient and can explain things to people on all levels. If you need help, there is nobody better than Ellis!
- Caroline B. from Greer, SC
Ellis is very knowledgeable and a great teacher. He has really helped my Son understand his Algebra 2 better. We will definitely be scheduling more sessions.
- Nicole W. from Simpsonville, SC
Ellis was on time and ready to provide services. Bravo. Our meeting place was very easy for us to access. My Daughter was much more confident about her Algeba2 final.
- Jamie B. from Simpsonville, SC
Great tutor! He knows a variety of subject matter and was able to help across the board with various subjects- Physics, AP calculus and Algebra 2. He was able to explain things in a different way
- Tami B. from Greenville, SC
Helped me better understand limits in calculus. I would recommend Ellis to a friend or anyone who is struggling to understand limits. We were able to review the problems that I missed on my test and clear up any confusion.
- Nathan K. from Greenville, SC
I will be returning for more sessions over the span of my college education. One session gave me the confidence I needed to attach tough calculus problems a second time. What I learned over the session empowered me to apply new knowledge and make my way through assignments independently. I'm so thrilled to have found such a wonderful tutor!
- Amanda B. from Duncan, SC
Ellis taught me different methods for studying the quantittative portion of the GRE. I'm not very good in math but he made it seem so easy! Can't wait for the second session.
- Tiffani H. from Spartanburg, SC
Ellis has helped me during the semester with organic chemistry. He helped me go over details that maybe I had missed before but was important throughout the whole class. I feel I had a greater understanding of organic chemistry even though it is a hard class after tutoring with Ellis. Great tutor and would recommend!!!
- Mary B T. from Simpsonville, SC
It was so good to see my daughter feel more confident after one session. Looking forward to more sessions . Awesome tutor! Thank you so much for today!
