3) I founded and ran my own school which was super fun and successful!

I LOVE teaching and sharing knowledge! But more importantly, I focus on passion, critical thinking skills, and asking questions that go above and beyond the words on a page. That's the point of education right?

Also, I LOVE SAT test prep and assisting with college applications.

I've been told numerous times by both students and parents that I'm *the best* tutor they've ever encountered. And just as every student is different, my methodology is different for every student I work with. My personal philosophy is "If you can win their heart, you can teach them ANYTHING". I said that and that's what I strive to do.

A breakthrough for my 15 yo son

Leon is young enough to be able to make great connections with kids, and smart enough to really get the best out of them. He was incredibly flexible and able to work on projects my son was struggling with at school. Leon is able to work with you on timing as well. We are excited to continue the process with Leon and see where he takes us. I am very happy with this tutor!

Kristin, 1 lesson with Leon

great tutor, fun lesson

Great lesson today. Leon helped to craft an idea of a short film and did an interview to learn more about me. I liked how I can learn many different things with him. His profile is very interesting and I am looking forward to studying a variety of subjects with him. It was good to talk today so that I could think about my history and cultivate a relationship with my new tutor. I am going to do my homework of making a script. I liked the lesson alot and am happy to start my day on wyzant today.

One of the best tutors I've had

Leon was really patient. He was really knowledgable on the SAT. He really got to know me personally, and he was really honest. I would definitely recommend him if you need help.

Robert, 1 lesson with Leon

Amazing tutor

My son is a super lazy grumpy teenager and quite dismissive of tutors generally but he absolutely loves Leon. And even better, Leon really motivates him to be better and work harder. He gives him homework between lessons and reminds him to do it. Leon isn’t just a tutor doing his job he really cares and wants my son to succeed. We’re going to have many more lessons with Leon and I hope the work will pay out, but so far I’ve been very impressed.

excellent coach

Helped me write and rehears a wedding speech. Incredible teacher and very patient. I’ve had many tutors throughout the years and it’s safe to say Leon has been the best.

Marco, 2 lessons with Leon

Very knowledgeable about the subjects

There aren't enough stars to rate Leon, even before we had our session , Leon would always maintained constant communication with me about what to expect and even had some homework for me. The thing that impressed me was that before we even met , he had already done so much research about my product which made it so much easier to begin. Great Guy to work with , felt as if I have known him for a long time ,very patient , he knew the questions and answers long before I asked. Looking forward to meeting with him again, hope to continue working with even after this project is done. If your looking for a Great tutor, Leon is your Guy . Thanks Leon
