I am a bay area graduate (UC Berkeley) who has loved the learning process all my life. I have used my math and science skills throughout my engineering career, and enjoy engaging others in the learning process. Seeing a student smile as they begin to understand a difficult topic is very rewarding.

I specialize in tutoring chemistry, math, and physics to help students achieve success in school, and on the various standardized tests. My goal is not only to help the student learn, but create ...

My son thinks Clark is way better in communicating Chemistry than his regular teacher. He has been really helpful and he is easy to schedule with. We have appreciated working with him.
- Margo R. from Los Gatos, CA
Thank you Clark for accommodating us last minute! Our son said you answered his questions right away which helped him understand his school work easier. He praised your teaching style and is looking forward to working with you again in the future!
- Roxanne P. from Rocklin, CA
We were able to cover a good amount of material and we covered it in depth. Very easy to understand and comprehend. After I left, I thought to myself, "man, if i had to go through those sections myself and try to teach myself the nomenclature, I would've been doing it for hours, I probably would've been making a lot of mistakes, and I certainly would be confused about a lot of the rules." Clarke took what would take me many hours and something that I would've been confused by and compressed it into 2 hours worth of material in a very simple, straight forward, and easy to understand method.
- Bobby K. from San Jose, CA
Clark reviewed a few concepts to ensure understanding and explained some new concepts. He was very articulate, patient and was able to answer and help me understand very well.
- Kavitha R. from San Jose, CA
Clark is a very good teacher - who takes the time to go step by step and review missing links in the area of need. I have really moved in the knowledge of math-as I am prepping for a test.
- Kristina T. from Palo Alto, CA
We went through the textbook we'll be using and charted a small lesson plan going forward. Has many good examples and explanations. I'll be working with him more methodically for a while
- Evan M. from San Jose, CA
Clark is very knowledgeable and is very good at probing for understanding. He breaks down problems into manageable concepts to make sure the fundamentals are clear.
- Gloria H. from Sunnyvale, CA
This review is based on my first class. I found Mr. Clark very helpful and straight to the point. I was able to understand what he taught and the way he worded things was very easy for me to grasp.
- Shubhangi D. from Fremont, CA
Clark went over some basic math principle; vocabulary, percentages, fractions, and the number line . He was able to teach me some really great mathematical strategies for figuring out percentages . I would highly recommend Clark .
- Forrest B. from San Jose, CA
Clark was very easy to understand, and was very patient! He was fantastic at explaining every step, and breaking down the concepts of redox balancing and stoichometry. Thank you for your help Clark!
- Jane Z. from Campbell, CA
My weekly meeting is certainly helping my overall understanding of concepts. I wish I had his help from the very start.
- Greg M. from Sunnyvale, CA
Not only helped with material but also small problems that greatly improved my scores. I would definitely recommend him if you're looking to greatly increase your test scores
- Mason P. from San Jose, CA
When Clark came over we went over my homework for geometry. It was very helpful and now the lesson makes more sense to me. Also we went over my chem notes that I took myself. I explained to him why its important that I take notes and how it benefits me.
- Sandhya Y. from Sunnyvale, CA
Didn't talk down to me! Helped me get my problems solved and with some simple techniques to help me in testing.
- Spencer D. from San Jose, CA
My son was struggling with the Chemistry Honor almost from week one. Half semester past, we decided to find him an tutor. The first tutor only last 6 classes. Luckily, We then found Mr. Clark. He is very patient and knowledgeable. He explains the concepts very well. My son follows and his class and his grade went up steadily. Besides patient, Mr. Clark is also very flexible. He is tutoring a lot of students. So his schedules is very tight. But when we need extra classes or class needed to change due to sports competition, he always works with us. I am not hesitate to recommend Mr. Clark to anyone who is seeking Chemistry tutor We wish we found Mr. Clark earlier.
- Joanna H. from San Jose, CA
Clark is tutoring our high school sophomore daughter in Geometry and Physics. Her grades have improved, but it is her own personal confidence at problem solving that we enjoy most. She has a tendency to be shy, and afraid to ask questions, or even know what questions to ask, so can be easily stressed when learning a new topic. Clark seems to sense when she's particularly challenged and will help her ask the questions that help her both define and then approach a problem.
- Jim T. from Santa Clara, CA
I have been tutoring with Clark for Organic chemistry for a few months now, and am very happy to be learning from him. He is very knowledgeable on the subject and if I ask him to go over a certain part he goes into detail regarding that part. He knows how much to go into and asks me if I want more detail requiring certain parts. Organic chemistry is a hard subject which requires lots of memorization, so if there are any parts which require memorization he will go over them and then relegates the rest to myself to memorization which I like. Also certain parts of organic chemistry require spatial thinking and being able to rotate 3 dimensional objects in your head. He is really good with this, but I am not. So certain things he tells me do not stick since this is hard for me, so my solution was to bring a modelling kit and use that. When presented with the kit he then uses it and shows me how the rotations work so he is really good with improvising learning with material. All together, he is really good tutor for chemistry (general, and AP as well as organic) and physics, since when explaining certain things in chemistry like bonding, I can tell he is also very knowledgeable in physics as well. So I would highly recommend Clark for these subjects because he is really good with these subjects and is able to adapt to different student's learning approaches.
- Padma M. from Sunnyvale, CA
He is extremely knowledgable about chemistry and teaches difficult concepts well. He makes sure the student learns the material before moving on. I definitely recommend him to others.
- Kinjal B. from Cupertino, CA
My daughter has only had several chemistry lessons with Clark and I can already tell that she is making good progress. She is starting to get better understanding of the concepts and is able to independently solve most of the problems as well.
- Yuan W. from Saratoga, CA
Our son has been receiving AP Chemistry tutoring from Clark for about 4 months. Clark has been very thorough in his teaching of the material. Prior to finding Clark, our son had received tutoring from three other chemistry tutors. None of those tutors were able to explain the material as well as Clark. Clark is knowledgeable, methodical, and is able to explain difficult material in a clear, easy to understand manner. He has built an excellent rapport with our son. He is also very patient and takes time to assure that our son has understood the material. We would highly recommend Clark for tutoring chemistry.
