Beverly has been an excellent tutor for me. She has patiently taken me through baby-steps in sketching. She has tailored the lessons to help me be more at ease with practicing, learning, making mistakes and learning some more. Beverly has encouraged me to be more fluid and less precision-oriented. I find I am really enjoying the whole process. She is nonjudgmental, encouraging and, when she sketches along with me, truly inspiring.

What I really like about her is that she wants you to set goals before the beginning of the session and follows through step by step to make sure those objectives are met. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to research, which is very important in today's world for students. She is motivating and encouraging when you are frustrated and is good at identifying the problem you are encountering.

Ed has such great energy and enthusiasm. My son has worked with several tutors and I've never seen him pick things up so quickly or without complaining. Ed was excellent at leading my student to workout the problem, without doing it for him or giving him the answers. They were able to cover a lot of information in a short period of time and he stayed patient and encouraging, which makes a huge difference when the student has math anxiety.
