Mr. Murdock is a credentialed teacher, and has taught science at Buchser School in Santa Clara for one year.  He was a chemistry major at Santa Clara University, and has all classes required for a masters degree in sociology with a minor in computer modeling from San Jose State (but not the thesis itself).  He is currently working toward his masters degree in biology at San Jose State.  Mr. Murdock has been a self employed tutor for six + years.  He is very familiar with the books and teachers of the demanding Cupertino and Saratoga areas.  He knows what the hard parts are, and how to explain them clearly.  He is excellent at motivating students of many academic levels, and keeping them interested.  His areas of expertise include Chemistry, Chem AP, Chem SAT II, Biology honors or AP, and math through precalculus.  He will truly bring out the best in your students.

Mr. Shieh is a former engineer, and now full time math teacher with years of experience.  He specializes in students who are already doing well, and want to excell in the tough areas of precalculus, calculus A, B, and C, and in preparing for the SAT II math IIC test or the Calculus AP test.  His goal is nothing less than an A for every student. 

Ms. Sha has a masters degree in English literature, and many years experience in writing skills development, AP Literature classes, SAT II Writing or Literature test, and AP test preparation.  She demands the best from her students, and always goes beyond what is required...she loves to teach, and puts her passion into it.
