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.
