Success stories

Real stories from real people

Since 2005, Wyzant has provided a way for people to learn any subject in a way that works for them.

Cathy Y.

24 Philosophy lessons

Meher's philosophy of "Teaching the student and not just the coursework" has worked wonders on my daughter. His unique hands-on style of teaching honors geometry by using paper models and creating colorful 3D drawings on white board has inspired my daughter to solve problems with affirmative confidence.
Armita F.

10 Philosophy lessons

Furthermore, Meher bent over backwards to give that little “EXTRA” to my son, which made a “BIG” difference in his receptivity towards learning. His interactive and collaborative teaching philosophy encompasses an adaptive learning platform that identifies your strengths and shortcomings to create a personalized study plan based on your unique needs and timelines.
Jim A.

4 Philosophy lessons

He wanted to get to know me and discuss his teaching philosophy, my goals and objectives, interests and background. I felt that this was a great way to start and I appreciated this comfortable approach. He put me at ease with his personality and demeanor. Yesterday was our first working session and I was very comfortable with his teaching style and enthusiasm! We covered a lot of material - he had handouts, and clearly demonstrated everything.
