Featured review

Knowledgeable and indescribably helpful tutor

Helped me understand and break down problems in a clear way. He always made sure to call back on what he previously showed me in the session so I could remember it better. Every concept was explained in detail before going on to the larger problem so I could understand each piece of the problem instead of just working to find the whole. It was awesome to be kept engaged by answering questions and working with him instead of just watching. James was incredibly patient with me and always made sure to build my confidence. I never felt bad about not knowing something or making a mistake because he always guided me back to the right track in such a way that showed how much he wanted to make sure I was learning and grasping the question. Absolutely the best tutor I’ve met, I absolutely recommend James to anyone who needs math help!

Very helpful and knowledgeable

He helped me with proofs and the understanding of some concepts in set theory. James is really patient and I feel like he could handle any mathematical induction problem.

James was very helpful

I've been struggling with discrete math for a while and James was able to walk me through some examples step by step that really helped me understand the concepts. Very patient and helpful.

Knowledgeable Tutor, very thorough and patient.

He taught my son various precalculus equations. The lesson was very helpful for my son, leaving my son very comfortable with the material. Will use this tutor again.

James helped my daughter get her grades up!

My daughter was having difficulty with some of her junior-year pre-calc lessons, and James was pivotal in helping her understand the subject and get her grades back up.

James' easy demeanor relating to the learner translates to the curriculum review. I find my son is more interested in the topic simply because James is instructing it in a logical, useful way.

James is reviewing systems of equations in Algebra. He has helped my son understand the foundations of the strategies and why each step is so important to discovering the solution versus simply memorizing the steps. James introduces concepts that stay with my son far beyond the time together. He challenges, motivates, and inspires my son to learn beyond the constructs of their time together.

Excellent Tutor

James B. tutored me in abstract linear algebra and calculus III. He was extremely helpful. During our tutoring sessions, he would pull up visual 3d graphics on wolfram alpha and other important formula sheets. In addition, he had helpful real life analogies that enabled me to understand mathematical concepts better. Also, he is very enthusiastic about teaching math.

Terrific tutor

Lara thought he was terrific, very helpful. I’ll hear more about the session later, I’m sure. They worked on geometry. Again, I don’t know the specifics yet, and I’m math-challenged, but my daughter gave a very positive assessment!
