THANKS TO THE READERS OF THE PACIFIC SUN FOR VOTING ME BEST TUTOR IN MARIN 2022
Hi! My name is Chris Dingman. I'm a tutor with both broad and deep experience. I have helped hundreds of middle school, high school, and entry-level college students with math through calculus, science, and writing. I also specialize in SAT and ACT preparation. I have a warm, encouraging approach that helps students relax and defuses stress and self-consciousness. With that foundation, students easily absorb my crystal-clear explanations. Classrooms are so often places of tension, which clouds the capacity to learn. I create an environment of ease. And ease allows focus.
My parallel background as a comedy screenwriter, essayist, and poet, as well as my interest in fitness, help me resonate with students with a variety of personalities and interests.
