Travis was an incredible AP Chemistry tutor! He ensured that I was well-prepared for the AP Chemistry test despite significant challenges in my AP Chemistry class. We essentially covered the last four units on our own! He was tough to make sure I was doing the work, while providing engaging and fun explanations of the content. Thank you for a great year!
Sally M.

She also tutored her in preparation for the AP Chemistry exam. Lindsey was very knowledgeable, and was good at explaining complex topics in an understandable way. She also had a thorough plan for helping my daughter prepare for the AP Chemistry exam, which led to very good results. Lindsey B. was also extremely responsive and amazingly flexible with scheduling sessions which was much appreciated. I highly recommend Lindsey B to anyone looking for help with chemistry.
Sarah G.

He did an amazing job of identifying areas of improvement and specifically chose questions at the correct difficulty for me to learn and grow in that area. Chris is super nice, knowledgeable, experienced, has a flexible schedule, and is the perfect tutor. Chris will help you prepare for the AP test and beyond, I confidently scored a 5 on the AP Chemistry College Board Exam with his tutoring. Even one lesson is incredibly high yield and definitely worth the money - highly recommend!
