Elisabeth T.

39 Science lessons

He has figured out that she needs help with some algebra and will be doing both with her. Not only is he providing a framework, detecting the weak points, and explaining the material so that she can understand it, but he is also very pleasant. I can't imagine that my daughter would ever have such great physics teaching in a classroom; she may still come to like science! My 13 year old son is in both grade in school and has been struggling with math for a few months.

Patricia A.

2 Science lessons

He would make side comments about my skills and the way I tried to express my knowledge on science background. I felt like I was being judged by him. And that I personally took offensive. I guess he was too smart to be a tutor for someone like me. He kept mentioning his degree. I may not have a few bachelor degrees up my sleeve or whatever it was, but I know I am smart enough. Things might not come easy to me but I work my butt off harder than anyone will know.

JaNIece J.

for her next lesson. He truly cares about my child and her success in Science. He knows when her tests are and follows up to see how she did. He gives her the encouragement and praise that she needs to celebrate her successes. He is flexible with our crazy schedule and is always on time. I could not ask for a better tutor for my daughter. The bonus to all of this is she likes him, too. I mean really likes him. (This is my 14 year old, "I know everything" daughter).
