John has been tutoring me for physics for the past semester and without him I would be totally lost in the class! John is very patient and does an excellent job explaining difficult topics. John definitely makes physics easier to understand. He is also always available to answer questions or fit in an extra tutoring session. I look forward to working with John next semester.

8 Physics lessons

When she came home from school in tears struggling to comprehend physics, I knew she needed a tutor. I was looking for a calm, patient, excellent teacher. My granddaughter wanted a young person. I asked her to give the mature gentleman a try. She loved John and his style of teaching! To quote her "Mr. M was patient and calm. He made the material easy to understand. And he knows more than my Physics teacher!" That says it all!

13 Physics lessons

Physics, especially in the college level, can be a very difficult and overwhelming subject. A few weeks into the semester I realized that "kind of getting it" was not going to cut it. Ken was the first tutor that replied to my e-mail and I'm glad he was. To all of you who are a little skeptical, Ken really knows his stuff. Ken is nice, patient, helpful, and the passion he has for physics will surely rub off on you.
