Brian was super patient when it came to going over my review packet with me, he even came to our session with the packet done himself, ready to teach. We went through everything in detail and he was amazing at explaining everything at a slower pace for me.

He made my son feel comfortable and confident as the sessions began. John was flexible with dates and times that allowed us to complete our daily routine as a family. Our son took the exam with more confidence because of the knowledge gain from John. His systematic approach provide that extra spark that was needed for my son to achieve that elusive score he had been in search of. I would highly recommend John for any level student and family. A 5 star tutor hands down!!
