Jess P.

2 Science lessons

I had an opportunity to participate in a research science and math program. One of the requirements was to complete a year-long science project for the school science fair. I contacted Carina to see if she would be willing to work with me as a mentor on the project, and a tutor in general during the year to support my efforts to excel and grow in the science field, specifically in chemistry. Carina’s subject knowledge and teaching qualities were a perfect fit.
Lucy L.

36 Science lessons

She explains elementary science to my daughter in a way that an 8 year old can understand. She makes it interesting and fun, and is patient enough for the many questions an 8 year old would have. She brings her own materials, which means she is always prepared and ready for science! If I would've had her as a science tutor as a child, I would've definitely gone into the field of science. I can say lots of nice things about Natalie, as I already have!

I can tell he is very passionate with political science. I highly recommend him for anyone would need political science help!
