Bryson tutored my son in Mechanical Engineering (Statics). He was able to answer even the most difficult problems. His explanations were very through and helped to explain the “why” behind the answer. Lessons were easy to schedule, even with short notice. I Highly recommend Bryson for any type of Math, even advanced college level courses including Mechanical Engineering topics.
