Legend. * let me know that he'd be very happy to be flexible to accommodate my busy schedule going forward and can do in-person or online lessons In summary, I can't recommend Arash highly enough.

I am happy to recommend Mansoor as a tutor. My son was struggling in Advanced Computer Math. We reached out to Mansoor and he met with my son on just one days notice. He did an hour and half session on calling and writing methods in computer programming. My son was extremely pleased with the session. Before the session my son was absolutely lost now he feels very comfortable with naming methods.We plan to use Mansoor for upcoming Computer programming topics.
