My son originally planned to take a couple of AP English lessons from Rober L. to see how it goes. This week is the 5th lessons my son continues taking AP English lessons from him. Robert L. has teaching techniques that drawing my son's interest in learning. My son's essay writing skill has been improved significantly since having him as a tutor. You are awesome Robert L.!

Different types of essays that my school teacher barely discussed in school, a changed approach to MC questions with respect to the SAT questions. Before studying with Adam I was struggling to maintain my grades. His patience, down-to-earth explanations, clear logic and his emphasis on a coherent structure changed my experience, and as a bonus improved my SAT score. Thank you so much!
