is very kind, patient, and thorough

Adam knows SPSS really well and was very patient. He helped me understand difficult concepts and works well with very limited time constraints. He was so easy to schedule a lesson with; prompt responses and a flexible schedule.

Great Tutor

Adam is very knowledgeable and was able to translate complex statistical theories into easy to understand concepts. When I didn't understand a concept he offered alternative ways of explaining it and was patient during the entire process. He has a very relaxed personality and seems eager to help.
