Dave is tutoring my daughter in AP World History. He is super knowledgable, patient, understanding, on-time and most importantly compassionate about student success. He is willing to accommodate her in any way possible. My daughter wishes he was her teacher because he simplifies the information, cares and takes his time explaining for her to understand.
