Knowledgeable and Patient
Josh has been teaching my daughter for the past few months, and we couldn’t be happier with the progress she’s made. He is patient, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to his students’ success. When we first started, my daughter was struggling with Precalculus, but with Josh’s clear explanations and guidance, she began to understand the material. His teaching not only improved her skills but also built her confidence to the point where she chose to move on to Calculus. Josh also supported her with SAT preparation, always taking the time to answer her questions thoroughly. We are deeply grateful for his help and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent math tutor.

Kind, Knowledgeable, Communicative and Prepared
Josh is great! He is a calm presence, making math less daunting to our ten-year-old son. He arrives prepared with a clear agenda and explains concepts in a way my son can understand. We appreciate him!

Very patient and organized
Josh tutors me with SAT Reading. I struggle with reading and writing. He teaches me strategies and assigns homework that helps me master the subject. He records the session so I can review it if need to.

great calculus tutor
My son was struggling with college calculus. The tutoring center on campus was unable to help him understand the work but Josh was able to break it down and has been extremely helpful.

Great First Impression
Josh was wonderful to meet. As first time parents who have no experience with tutoring, Josh exceeded our expectations! He spoke to our little girl like a grownup, completely eliminated the distracting “little kid approach” and she had a flipping BLAST! We cannot wait for our next session!

Knowledgeable and patient
After the first session, Joshua was able to hone in on the areas my son needed to improve on and developed a strategy to help him do better in math. He provides thoughtful and comprehensive feedback after the sessions.

very knowledgeable, organized, experienced tutor
My 6th grade son had two sessions with Josh so far. I can see he is a great tutor to get ahead in math. My son really likes him how he is smart, skilled, calm, organized. He explained the concepts in a clear and understandable way. Since my son had some experiences with other tutors in the past, he can say who is really good and fit well with him and want to continue working with him for a ling time. After sessions, Josh sent a summary of session very detailed so I can see where is my son at and what he learned and what area my son needs to work more. His detailed feedback also very helpful to see my son’s progress.
