In our initial meeting, I was impressed when Mark asked very specific questions and listened very intently to the responses in order to recommend a tailored solution for our teen’s tutoring needs. He’s clear about areas where he can help (protect the grades, prep for ACT/SAT, writing, etc.), as well as areas that are outside his wheelhouse (math and science).
