Atlantic Cape Libraries

The Atlantic Cape math tutors are happy to provide assistance with all of your math questions. You can meet them here. 

Hi everyone! My name is Joseph Bertero. I'm originally from New York and moved to New Jersey in 2007. I graduated from Kean University with a bachelor's in Accounting in 2012 and moved on to finish an MBA in 2014. It was hard for me to leave academia so I began as a tutor at Mercer County Community College in 2016. I work full time for Verizon as a 2nd generation technician, a trade that my father lead me into. It is a team oriented job that love and have a passion for. I also love football. I coach the 8th grade varsity football team along with head coach Mike for Egg Harbor City. I like to think of math the same I think about football. You have to practice, it's not a spectator sport.

Hello world! I graduated from ACCC with an Engineering A.S. degree in 2019 and started tutoring the same semester. Currently, I am working towards an Electrical Engineering B.S. degree in Arizona State University's online program. My studies are concentrated in electric power and energy systems, meaning power generation, distribution, and utilization. 

I love all things mechanical, like old cars and clocks! I have spent the past number of years, blood, sweat, and tears, slowly rebuilding a disheveled Jeep TJ. For a few years, I worked at a small delicatessen in Brigantine where I had an opportunity to operate and maintain a plethora of interesting machines like slicers, grinders, and saws. I also love gardening and the resulting fruits of labor. And, yes the beautiful sunflowers are from my garden.

I am available to provide assistance with courses in mathematics, physics, engineering, and programming in C++. Feel free to reach out any time.

Hello everyone! My name is Roman Segov and I’m an International Student in the US, originally from the cold and harsh region of Siberia in Russia. I pursued my early studies at Siberian Federal University before I came here. Currently, I am enrolled in Atlantic Cape Community College for Computer Information Systems. My passions include coding, traveling, and music. I have several instruments I play daily. I believe in the beauty of mathematics and I would like to share it with you. Helping people to improve brings me joy. Once, an old math teacher of mine said, “You can’t teach someone. They have to learn on their own”. I believe that ultimate responsibility lies with the learner, but having an experienced person who guides you makes your learning journey the most effective and rewarding.

My name is Lisa Stuart-Smith and I am EXCITED to offer my educational services to you.  I worked as a Principal and Assistant Principal at Leeds Avenue School in Pleasantville, New Jersey for 21 years.  Prior to becoming an Administrator, I taught Health and Sex Education for 7 years......again, in the Pleasantville School District.  I LOVED THE TEACHING JOB!!  It was very rewarding and I never knew what was going to come out of the mouths of my students.
My hobbies include going to the gym, attending concerts, and playing games with family and friends.  I also have a passion for traveling.  I have vacationed in Dubai, Australia, Thailand, Portugal, and Morocco....just to name a few.  

My methods of teaching are not conventional.  I believe in making instruction fun and engaging, not necessarily pen and paper.  I am offering my talents to students who need assistance with language arts, writing, and basic math.

My name is Tracy Wang. I was born in the United States but I have been back and forth from China to the US throughout the years. I am currently a Junior Marketing Major at Towson University. I graduated from Atlantic Cape Community College last year, and it was truly a fantastic experience to meet other talented people from other countries. Also, being a Statistic tutor really enhances my ability to communicate in English and constantly help others who struggle. For those who have or have not joined my Zoom session before, I want you all to know that I have been in the same situation when I felt stressed about a course, so I am here to help, and always feel free to reach out to me.

More information about the tutoring program can be found on the library website and here. If you have any questions, email tutoring@atlantic.edu. 

It's time to meet the Atlantic Cape science tutors! 

I received my associate of science in biomedical science from ACCC. I then graduated with my degree in biology from Stockton University. I have a passion for life long learning and look forward to working with students to develop a great academic experience!

With the fall semester going strong, it's a good time to meet our writing tutors and to learn more about the tutoring services available for free to all Atlantic Cape students. 

Hello, my name is Shawna Beals-Rivera.  I graduated from Cumberland County College, Stockton University and Drexel University. I am currently a 2nd grade teacher for a public school. Of course, I am also a tutor for Atlantic Cape Community College. I tutor in reading and writing. I also tutor English Language Learners as well. In my spare time, l love to read, draw, shop, go to the movies/concerts, and spend time with my family. 

Gabby Bibus, writing tutor, graduated from Stockton University in May 2021 with a double major in Literature and Languages & Culture Studies and a minor in French. For the 2022-2023 school year, she lived in northern France where she worked as an English Language Assistant. Now that she's back in the US, she works as a substitute teacher at a technical high school while tutoring for ACCC on the weekends. She also writes articles for Fandom Spotlite. Her hobbies include watching anime, listening to music, and reading. Lastly and most importantly, she lives on a farm with over 80 goats!

From 2017 - 2020, I attended Stockton University, where I was a peer writing tutor and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Literature. Since then, I developed an interest in higher education and started my career at Stockton University in 2021. As of 2023, I am pursuing a Master's degree in Instructional Technology and hope to continue expanding my career in higher education. I am a writing tutor with Atlantic Cape and, in my free time, enjoy playing video games and spoiling my cat.

I enjoy art to the fullest. I have a tattoo shop where I work in that medium, a studio there where I do side projects which include sculpting, painting, and as outlandish things such as making prosthetics for movies. I graduated from Atlantic Cape with a dual degree in Studio Arts and Digital Design. I am working towards my bachelors and will be looking to work as an instructor online for college art.  I have worked for several comic companies, tattoo shops, magazines and have done advertising and marketing in the past. I tutor art appreciation, interpersonal communication as well as visual communication. 

I am currently working on movie props for a local horror/sci-fi movie being produced, and am trying to balance that between work, school and tutoring! I know things are hectic, but I’m always here to help!

I am Carol Lott, and I have been a Writing Tutor at the college for many years both on campus and online, and I enjoy working with students in both settings.  When we began to offer online classes several years ago, the concept was rather new, and the college wanted to provide online students with the same services as the students who attended classes on campus. With many changes in life circumstances, I transitioned to online tutoring only, and I continue to enjoy my interactions with the students I meet online.  My family consists of my husband and two adult children who live out of the area.  I received my degree in Sociology with a Gerontology concentration from Stockton College.  I found that knowledge helpful as I cared for my mother with Parkinson's for ten years.The knowledge we acquire can be used both in a career and daily life.  When I am not tutoring, I enjoy reading, cooking and traveling.  I am always up for quick day trips to  the Philadelphia area, exploring New Jersey and New York.   A change of scenery does wonders for one's perspective on life. 

My name is Nanette Stuart and I am happy to be starting my second year as an Atlantic Cape Community College Tutor. I came to ACCC in March 2023 following my retirement from the educational arena after 29 years of service.  Prior to retirement, I worked as an administrator (Vice-Principal then Principal) for 16 years in the Pleasantville Public School District.  My administrative experience came primarily from working with middle and high school populations, though I did service all grade levels as a district administrator for 5 years. I also taught English Language Arts to middle school students for 10 years while simultaneously working in the evenings for 5 of those years to provide ESL instruction to adults.  Given my background, I am confident that I bring a wealth of knowledge that can assist any student; though I would particularly be able to service those learners who need help in the areas of English Language Arts and Writing.  If you need help and think I might be the right person to offer guidance and provide support when working on those college level assignments, please seek me out!
During my free time I enjoy concerts, traveling, the theater (both watching and being on stage), using my creative talents, and spending time with my young daughter and family.  When it’s all said and done, it’s enjoying doing things you love that make all of life’s experiences worthwhile!
