I really liked that he gave her sample problems to test where she is as he went along the topics. When he felt she had a solid foundation he would move on to the next one. He also covered some other ways of solving a problem in a way she can understand to give her more arsenal. Throughout the time he was very patient and encouraging. I really like Corey and I would certainly recommend him to other parents and book sessions when needed in the future.

Terrence is a remarkable tutor. Terrence works with both of my daughters on a weekly basis (6th grade and 10th grade) and I don’t know what we’d do without him. He is kind, patient and explains math in a way that makes it easy, understandable and even fun. My 6th grade daughter, who once struggled in math, has made incredible improvements and even enjoys math now. I highly recommend Terrence for all levels of math, as well as math SAT prep.
