In 2 hours they had only completed 1 ½ pages of math. I was really hoping they would have gotten more done. (3)3rd session 5th reading passage about Firefighters my daughter was having a really hard time understanding the questions and really needed more support from Janet. Within 30 minutes my daughter had only written down five words. I kept popping in because I noticed they were not getting a lot done.

My son had great respect for him and they really bonded well. Therefore, that led to my son really building his confidence in his math skills and doing well on his EOG's for 5th grade and doing well in his Honors Math in 6th grade Middle school. I would recommend Mr. Clint as a tutor. He is very knowledgeable and relates well with children. I am thankful for him helping my son.
