Responsive and Responsible

We found out that Cody was not just an "answer provider." He was responsive and patient. He was sensitive to our needs and can make a fine-tune for us. His calm and patient demeanor was also enjoyable. The best thing was that he would check to see if the student had a background knowledge about the subject. That was very important for tutoring a student to pass a math competition. So, we really recommend Cody to anyone who needs a math tutor.

Amazing!!

There are many people who are knowledgeable and there are many people who are patient with kids, but there are very few who are outliers in both! Cody is obviously a legit expert who is really wonderful at explaining advanced concepts to my son. The patience in his voice far surpasses mine. Grateful to have met Cody!
