Christopher, 6 lessons with AlanAlan was very helpful in helping my son grasp the concerts of the material my son was struggling with. His greatest quality was that he was very patient and always available to meet my son to provide help.

Extremely helpful
As an art history student, working with Alan has been such a great experience. I've always had hard time finding a writing tutor who was familiar with art historical terms, but was lucky enough to find Alan, who was extremely helpful as he was very knowledgeable in the area. He not only helped me with the general structure of each essay, grammar and word choice, but also explained each spot with clarity to guide my draft to a polished essay.

Knowledgeable and patient
Alan reviewed my Statement of Purpose essays and gave me great feedback. He helped me with my essay structure, word choice, and grammar. My themes were pretty disorganized and rambly, but he took the time to read through it and make my essays more direct.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!
He did go through all the fields with me, which I needed to review and correct my mistakes. The lesson was well planned and I wasn't rushed. He paid attention the whole time.

Knowledgable and patient tutor
Alan was very helpful to my daughter, in the first lesson! He worked closely with me. Alan spent a lot of time reviewing my daughters homework, and helping her memorization problems. Alan, tactfully, in the lesson brought up some learning and communication issues, I had noticed with my daughter; and suggested to her some good solutions. He also found an excellent and appropriate skill level Spanish movie to help my daughter build confidence in hearing and understanding the Spanish language. He went the extra mile do this.

Polite, Helpful, And Very Professional
Mr. Alan and I met for two hours at a local DC coffee shop. He helped me into finding new approaches to solving reading section questions in TOEFL. He was polite, helpful, and very professional. Defiantly we'll meet for future lessons.

Great Teacher!
Alan is a very patient teacher with a lot of knowledge base. He is very patient with me and always finds away to explain concepts so that I understand them. I have learned a lot and learned about other valuable resources that can help me with particular math concepts thanks to him.

Excellent First Lesson with Alan
During the first lesson, Alan was able to determine which areas our daughter needed to focus on to prepare her for the SAT exam. He effectively covered a lot of ground in a relatively short period of time. His patient, easy going personality put our daughter at ease, allowing her to get the most out of her tutoring session. Alan recommended a number of books for self study, based on our daughter's needs. Overall, an excellent lesson!

Patient and knowledgeable
Alan was patient and knowledgeable. He understood the deficiencies that his students had and needed work, and made a plan for it. We are confident that he will be able to provide guidance for my nephew to finish his GED.
