Joy E.

6 lessons

After just a couple of sessions, you can see that my daughter is already very comfortable with Angelo. She is actually getting less shy about speaking the language and getting more and more confident about it. I know it's been fun for her too and she has come to look forward to his sessions! Angelo is always prompt, communicative, respectful, and amiable. I'm very happy with my choice of Angelo and would definitely recommend him! I'm also hoping to hire him for next year's school year.

Jennifer S.

1 lesson

I really liked that he gave her sample problems to test where she is as he went along the topics. When he felt she had a solid foundation he would move on to the next one. He also covered some other ways of solving a problem in a way she can understand to give her more arsenal. Throughout the time he was very patient and encouraging. I really like Corey and I would certainly recommend him to other parents and book sessions when needed in the future.

Kenya B.

Although he has been passing math, I often feel like he is being pushed along. Bill has been great for my son and he enjoys the time Bill is here. He is here twice a week and I can see more confidence in my child. I believe by the time he starts 6th grade next school year he will be more prepared and the math will be fresh in his brain. I would highly recommend Bill to assist your child.
