An Absolute Pleasure
Ryan, 22 lessons with SamSam is by far one of the most helpful, informative, and accomodating tutors I have ever come across. He has helped me with high-level undergraduate Macro/Microeconomics in a way that no tutor before him has come close to doing. I rarely ever write reviews, but in return for all of the help that I've received, it is absolutely the very least I could do. I highly, highly recommend him to students who strive to do better and could use the extra help.

Extremely knowledgeable and patient
Sam is brilliant at interpreting and explaining difficult micro concepts; especially when the class is less than clear. Lagrangian was never my friend but I am becoming more comfortable with it. Thank you so much!

Best Tutor - Business Statistics and Microeconomics
I am writing to highly recommend Sam as a tutor. Sam has been instrumental in supporting my son through two challenging college courses: Principles of Microeconomics and Business Statistics. Throughout their time working together, Sam has consistently demonstrated exceptional teaching abilities and a deep understanding of these subjects. One of Sam’s most notable qualities is his patience. He ensures that complex topics are broken down into manageable pieces, making the learning process more approachable and less overwhelming for my son. His dedication to helping my son grasp difficult concepts, complete homework assignments, and prepare for midterms has significantly boosted my son’s confidence and academic performance. Moreover, Sam is highly accommodating and flexible with scheduling, always understanding the demands of a college student's timetable. His commitment to being available and adapting to our needs has made coordinating tutoring sessions stress-free and convenient.

Incredibly Helpful
Worked through questions and mathematics for upcoming final exams in labor economics and public finance, including social choice theory, interpreting regression results and models of TANF, EITC and school voucher systems. Felt so much better prepared and more confident for my finals. Comprehensive knowledge base and highly effective tutoring style!

Extremely knowledgable and helpful tutor for Macroeconomics!
Sam helped my son, a BBA candidate, with macroeconomic problems relating to monetary policy, bank balance sheets, the money multiplier, and the quantity theory of money. They have already scheduled their next session for Sam to prepare him for his midterm.

Best Econometrics tutor ever!
Sam is helping me with highly technical work. He is not only patient, but he wants to make sure that you can achieve your best results. Sam is a very engaged teacher. He is extremely knowledgeable and can impart his expertise so easily, that it is a pleasure and a very fun activity to interact with Sam. I have learned from Sam so much in only a few sessions! I'm hoping to be able to learn much more by taking his classes again.
