153 English lessons

Brilliant but down to earth, easy to talk to, he knows his stuff and he knows HOW to teach. Many tutors are expert at the material, but cannot effectively convey it. Colin has tutored my son in Geometry, Algebra, Chemistry, Bio, English -- he can do it all. He tailors his game plan to exactly what needs to be accomplished, and my son feels confident after every session. And the proof is, his grades at school reflect that confidence.

Annie is working with my son on various high school writing skills. He is a reluctant writer and he is responding well to Annie's approach which involves understanding what the student is interested in and using that as a spark for otherwise hated work. He has done more work for Annie than he seems to do in his English class at school. I'm pleased that Annie is getting through to him when we (parents & teachers) can't.

Bob is an exceptional tutor. He has the patience to help English major type thinkers really look at and translate what a mathematical equation is really asking. He doesn't whiz through lessons, imparting 'short-cuts' that evaporate by the time I get home. He gives his pupils through room to think through something themselves, make a few mistakes, then work with him toward an Ah Ha! solution.
