Daniel D.

20 Psychology lessons

Most tutors wouldn't go the extra mile like that.) Karen has the special and rare ability to tailor her teaching to each individual student. Students are different. They require different approaches, as unique as they are. Karen knows how to adapt to this and present the material to each student in the way they need. Because I work in and study Educational Psychology, I am familiar with a lot of studies on the effectiveness of various teaching methods.
Rachel F.

3 Psychology lessons

I am a graduate student of Clinical Psychology at the Teachers College, Columbia University. I would not have survived my Statistics class last semester without Jonathan F. It has been years since I took a math class and I wasn't very good at it on top of it --- needless to say, I was suffering. Jonathan helped turn the textbook material from a frustrating chore of memorization into something real and approachable.

This guy totally understands the psychology of reading, understanding, and teaching. Truly a gifted mentor. 6/1/14 Christian and my son continue to progress extremely well as student and mentor. I am quite impressed with Christian's ability to read and understand what techniques work best with my son. The level and pace of my son's comprehension has accelerated well beyond what I ever thought possible in such a short period of time.
