John was not only very knowledgeable in the area, but he was ready and more than willing to do whatever would be best for my own learning. He did not force any personal teaching habits or unnecessary methods. Rather, he made he tutoring method around what I specifically needed. He is encouraging and helps you learn for yourself, rather than just telling you something and hoping you memorize it.
Renae L.

He has always been kind and understanding, and one of the things I admire most about him is he always has a smile to share with his students. His attitude is especially encouraging to us student who are already struggling in one way or another and could really use a dose of joy in our day. It's an attitude I've been working on acquiring as well, thanks to his influence. Though for a brooding and moody teenager, it's been a little difficult.

Jordan is positive and patient and encouraging; he's also amazingly available outside of tutoring for a quick followup or clarification. He'll go over over things to make sure they're right. His commitment makes it worth it. If he's late, he makes up the time. He's also very flexible with his own time. Oh and by the way, he knows his subjects and knows more than one way to teach them.
