ADHD

ADHD

As a former SAT tutor I was recommended to instruct students suffering from "ADHD". I instructed them on how to overcome their "disability" without the use of medication. I believe medication is a crutch but as a medication that mandates use with only loss in improvement over time, there has to be a better way. I instruct on techniques to improve their studying so they do not even need ADHD meds. My brothers all took medication but all of them only saw temporary improvement only to be back on the treadmill of taking the meds to be maintaining a status quo. From my sample size, improvement over time was limited.

Chemistry

Timothy has provided excellent support and knowledge to helping me understand my homework. It has been a big relief to know that each lesson we are accomplishing mastery of the concepts. I would refer him as a level five.

Kadi, 23 lessons with Timothy

Knowledgeable Tutor

Timothy is patient and explains Chemistry in a way I can understand. We go over the work I have for the week, as well as prep for upcoming quizzes. I feel a lot more confident after just a few sessions. Highly recommend him as a tutor!

Patient, knowledgeable, and understanding

After just one session I can already tell I understand the topic that I was confused on SO much better. After stressing about an upcoming test, Timothy was able to explain the concepts in depth and answer any questions I had. look forward to working with him again!
