Excellent engineering tutor
Matt tutored me in college thermodynamics and fluid mechanics, and I thought he was a great tutor. He really understands the material, and he helped me understand it as well. His teaching methods are super clear and in no way confusing, and he cares for his students. If he can’t figure something out within the lesson time, he often takes time outside of the lesson to solve it and let you know. Overall, amazing tutor, would highly recommend.

Knowledgeable, patient and reliable tutor.
Excellent! Student at Mines, tough engineering school, 2nd year DYNAMICS. Went to all the office hours, studied hard, but needed 1-on-1 time with Matt to prepare for tests, complete assignments, and receive 1-on-1 feedback. Great experience, will be using Matt going forward for challenging classes.

Knowledgable tutor
Matthew tutored me for my fluid mechanics class. Because this is a very hard engineering course, it’s hard to find tutors to help out. I was struggling a lot with the concepts and didn’t do well on my first exam. However, after a few sessions with Matthew, I received a new perspective on how to approach the problems through his expertise and patience and was able to do well on my next two exams and end up with an A in the class.

Only Reason I Passed
This man is literally the only reason I passed my college dynamics class. He was very patient during our sessions and extremely knowledgeable. He used new learning/teaching strategies that no tutor had introduced me to before. In addition to learning the subject, I re-learned how to LEARN. Furthermore he has a sense of humor which made our sessions both informative and entertaining. I am very grateful for mr. Matt for all his help and I give my full recommendation. From one college student to another: he is worth every dollar

Amazing tutor
Matthew took time to write a summary of the lesson's contents as well as the progress of my child. This was great in letting me understand what specifically my child needed more help on and the core focuses of the session. I am incredibly pleased with both my child's results and the experience during the session.

Hands down the best physics tutor on this site
I worked with Matt on college-level quantum mechanics and electrodynamics, and I genuinely feel in some part that I'll be graduating thanks to him :) First of all, Matt just knows his stuff. With a glance, he's able to solve questions I couldn't even start. He breaks down complex problems by asking leading questions to help YOU find the solution. I especially appreciate the fact that arriving at the right answer isn't the end - he really makes sure that you understand the context and big picture of these topics. He also provides detailed notes of each session, and on several occasions voluntarily reached out AFTER our lesson to expand on something we'd discussed. On top of this, Matt is always incredibly patient, warm, and encouraging. I've never felt uncomfortable saying "I still don't get this" because he is always happy to meet me at my level without judgement. Seriously, don't look any further, he's the best tutor you can hope to find!

Fluid Dynamics
Matthew was excellent for Fluids! He was always well-prepared and adjusted to my learning method fairly quickly. He is extremely knowledgeable in the subject and used tonnes of resources to help me better understand fluids! He was also super flexible and always had problems for me to review! Overall best tutor for Fluids!

Great teacher! Patient and useful
Currently struggling in one of my engineering classes, but with Matt’s help I seem to be catching up and understanding a lot more than I previously did! Thanks!

Very Detailed summaries
Matthew S provides very detailed notes after each session. The notes connect past, present and future learning. Connecting material helped my son apply complex concepts.
