Personable, effective English, Math and Science Tutor
I'm an expert in working with students to develop skills and to understand concepts. My expertise is especially strong in problem solving, and applying concepts to real world situations. I'm also very adept at online tutoring, with hundreds of lessons taught, for students as far away as Denmark and Qatar. . When my son was in college, we used to problem solve on the phone and via email. His classmates wanted him to "rent me out".

Chemistry Master
Jim is a wonderful Chemistry tutor. He is patient, very intelligent, relaxed and easy to work with, and he can even crack a good joke. He tutored me in basic Chemistry and is moving on with me to an upper level class. Now that we have been working together, I couldn't imagine getting through next semester without him! His schedule is flexible around mine and he is alway very reliable with our appointments. He helped me get over failing my first test and I ended up with a B in the hardest class of my college career. Not only does he help you figure out which basic concepts you may need to brush up on to move forward, but he also helps make study guides, explains how chemistry relates to the real world, and has multiple ways to teach you the topics based around how you specifically learn. I've referred one friend already and would absolutely recommend his tutoring to anyone, especially those that are feeling very lost when it comes to math and science. Jim L. is a Chemistry Master!

Very patient and extremely knowledgeable!
Jim is very patient and works well with my son. My son lacks the basic study skills and with classes like Algebra and Physics this year, it has been a true blessing!

Consistently productive sessions
There's not one time a session with Jim hasn't been a learning experience, and above all, a productive one where assignments get done. Reliable and hard working.

Very patient and knowledgeable. He’s teaching me corporate finance; how to understand and create a P&L spreadsheets. He clearly loves to teach and I’m grateful! I know I’ll do well in grad school, thanks to him.

Keeps it interesting and maintains engagement
My son liked how Jim held him accountable for learning and would not let up until the concepts were understood. My son also enjoyed Jim's personality and they got along well.
