Student Feedback for Shahid

"Polite, Knowledge Tutor, Big Thumb Up"

- Anne from Palo Alto, CA

My son, daughter and I just had our first lesson with Shahid and loved every minute of it. Shahid surprises me with how well he listens and appropriately addresses any programming issues or difficulties we had. His vast knowledge, calm manner and clear instruction spark great interest and confidence about Java even with my computer- timid daughter. I totally believe Shahid can help my children learn sophisticated Java by the end of the summer. Highly recommend Shahid.

"Great tutor!"

- Tiffany from Milpitas, CA

He's very patient in explaining all the materials that I have trouble understanding!! Totally recommend for those who are "lost" and need some help to get back on track.

"Great tutor and very easy to work with!"

- Erika from Milpitas, CA

Shahid responded to my request for a Discrete Mathematics tutor for my college freshman quickly and we were able to get 3 2-hr sessions in the week before my son's finals. He was very pleasant to deal with and arrived early for each session. My son received excellent tutoring from Shahid and commented on how clear each explanation was and how patient Shahid was. Shahid even sent my son a text message after his final to ask how it went. I am very pleased with Shahid's quality of work and genuine interest he showed in my son's performance in Discrete Mathematics!

Shahid replied on 6/20/2012:

Thanks Erika, I must mention here that your son, even he is a freshman, but has very mature approach for problems. I am really impressed with his personality, and very fine and gentle grooming. I am offering him any computer science query anytime on phone, and I will not charge for that.

"Great Tutor"

- Mahbub from San Jose, CA

Sahid is tutoring my son on JAVA programming. He is very caring. He takes time to understand the weak areas and spend time to make sure that details are well understood. He checks whether the fundamental concepts are well understood or not and goes over them again if needed. He also prepares well before the tutoring session so that the time is well spent. His style of motivating his student to drive problem solving on his own and he be the helper as needed adds to the confidence of the student. His positive influence is increasingly visible in my son's continued progress.

"Superb Tutor"

- Margot from Mountain View, CA

Shahid was just what I was looking for. He was available right away and when we met at Starbuck's, he was on-time and very focused on my exact statistical needs. He quickly understood what I was looking for and how to use SPSS to obtain my results. He understood SPSS and how it calculated results which helped me to interpret my findings with confidence. He was well-informed not just of statistics but also how to identify what tests were needed for different methodologies and data dynamics. He has knowledge of what were appropriate elements for the breathe of my project rather computing every unneeded detail. He was polite, professional and efficient with our time. I feel confident recommending Shahid for any of your mathematical needs. Thanks to Shahid for helping understand my thesis data.

"Excellent teaching approach"

- Chris from Palo Alto, CA

Shahid took exactly the approach I was hoping a personal teacher would. First he understood what my goals were for his tutoring sessions, then he quickly determined what level I was at and then structured the teaching format perfectly to fit my needs. I'm looking forward to working with Shahid to both complete my project and gain mastery in the process.

"great coach with expertise, recommended!"

- Rong from Cupertino, CA

Shahid coaches my son in Java. He is very professional, with in-depth programming language expertise. After a few lessons my son is much more confident on his assignment and he understands his school work a lot better than before. Shahid's tutoring is a perfect fit to my son's need. He is also easy to reach by phone or email and flexible about schedule. Two thumbs up.

Shahid replied on 2/2/2012:

Thanks Rong S., For your optimism about me. Your son is a very good student and he does exactly what I expect. I must appreciate his interest in the language which fascinates me.
