Knowledgeable and Professional

I requested a lesson with John today for help with Civ Pro II. Early on, John asked me to send a copy of my syllabus from Civ Pro I and Civ Pro II so he could tailor his lessons to my specific needs. He is extremely organized, responsive, and professional. Because Civ Pro II has a strong foundation that is set in Civ Pro I, John created a tutor plan that will allow me to review the old material quickly and then learn the new material. I am looking forward to future lessons with him!

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

John R. is an excellent tutor for civil procedure. Just from the couple of lessons I have had with him, he explains the concepts well and will even tailor a syllabus specific course plan. I highly recommend hiring him if you are struggling with civil procedure.
