She was always willing to help me in any way she could at any time during the day before my exam if I had any last minute questions. I really appreciated all her efforts in tutoring me and I definitely saw a positive outcome after meeting her for both of the classes I was tutored in. I cannot stress enough how AMAZING of an Organic Chemistry/General Chemistry tutor she is! I would definitely recommend Vanessa P.!

Mattia A.

After getting Tom, my grades leapt from B's to A's by the end of the semester. Tom was able to patiently walk me through synthesis problems and point out what I was doing incorrectly. He helped me figure out my weak spots in organic chemistry and got me from the path to memorizing steps to understanding how to use the tools I was taught in organic chemistry to see the bigger picture of the problems. I was able to maintain A's in a very difficult class thanks to Tom.
