She thought that the time spent with Patrick was very helpful and appreciated that he was kind and yet very direct and to the point with offering suggestions and ways for her to be more intentional about actively studying and how to manage organization. Great organization and study skills tutor!
Tammy B.

In addition, he is very easy to reach and responds promptly to communications. We are very pleased overall with her sessions! We could not be happier as things have progressed. The study skills are paying off and we are seeing the difference in her grades! Now the main focus is on Chemistry or Pre-Calc depeding on the week. She is very happy with the tutoring for each. We continue to be very pleased with Tony and would highly recommend him as a tutor!
Geoffrey P.

593 lessons

When we started this 2.25 year tutoring journey my son was a student that wasn't very serious about school, had no study skills and was very disorganized. Now as a Senior he is taking 8 classes (6 AP) and doing all the work on his own while making over a 4.0 GPA (weighted). He also will be attending a top National University with a 60% tuition scholarship where he will be studying Computer Science. I would highly recommend Ms. N as a tutor for your student.
