I am a junior in high school and Mr. H tutored me in Study Skills for about 6 months last year. He spent a lot of time with me and really cared about what he was teaching. He followed up each week to make certain that I was implementing the new skills. He has a lot of life experience so he knows what it takes to do well in school. I learned many valuable organizational and study skills from Mr. H that I am still using this year and I plan to use throughout college.

He evaluated her study skills and determined where she needed the most attention. My daughter worked hard alongside Llewellyn the whole way. She focused on what he was teaching her and she went home and applied it while she was studying and doing her homework. He did not give her answers or show her shortcuts that would only work for one or two problems. He taught her the basics and taught her valuable study skills which she can apply to all her future math classes.
Josh B.

4 lessons

I specifically requested for my son to be taught organizational skills and study skills. Instead, he was just tutored on the material that was at hand from school. Colleen said she was feeling him out to try to understand how he works. I don't have the time and money for a tutor to spend the next six months trying to figure my child out, especially when I just want to teach him proper organizational skills and study skills, which I know is my son's major issue.
