I worked with Rick for my son's AP Government exam preparation. He is a great tutor and gave great information to grasp. My son started liking the way he teaches. He provided the model questions on time and worked with my son during the session. He is very knowledgeable and always available to help him. I highly recommend him for the AP Government. He is definitely a go to tutor and I would rate more than 5 stars.

He also provided tons of helpful resources, study guides, practice FRQs, and reviews customized to my daughter's learning style. Thanks to Ken's support, my daughter is able to keep up in a college-level class and her confidence grew tremendously. If you’re looking for an experienced, tech-savvy, and patient AP Government tutor for online sessions, I highly recommend Ken. The convenience of online tutoring combined with such high-quality instruction was a game-changer for us.

Another plus was that Jacqueline would work with my son on SKYPE which was a big plus. He came out smelling like roses in both his courses, his teachers were astonished at the progress he made. I will highly recommend Jacqueline, and we are not finished yet with her help, as she will be tutoring my son for his AP exam in May. Thanks Jacqueline from Marcus and Ricardo
