Jerry has done a great job teaching my son physics. He makes the material easy to understand, and explains concepts in a clear and concise manner. He has laid the foundation for my son's upcoming physics class and provided very useful handouts containing only the necessary equations and variables. He is happy to help with homework problems that my son would have a hard time on, something we will definitely take utilize throughout the year.
