Joshua was personable, patient and very knowledgeable. He made me feel confident and comfortable to do further tutoring with him.

Larisa C.

1 lesson

Lisa did not work with my son, she wrote a few ideas, in the comfort of her home and then wrote the "essay" for him. Lisa wrote: "I also wrote the essay for him. All he had to do was lay it out on the page and print it. The work was done for him." Her complete college essay was about 15-16 lines and had to be discarded because it was useless. We had to get another tutor, who was able to come and work one on one and help, not do the work for the student.
