"Kind and Flexbile Tutor"
- Jessa, Dallas, TX on 12/9/16Neil was such a wonderful person to work with. Allowing me to direct the session, he explained everything succinctly. If I didn't understand the concept initially, he used other tactics to help me. I was also impressed with how familiar he was with the content I was expected to know -- and the extent to which I needed to know it.
"Great tutor and really knows his stuff!"
- Roy, Dallas, TX on 5/29/17We did a review of items to look for in a company's annual report. Neil described the important items to look for and what they mean for the direction of the company.
"Knowledgeable on many subjects"
- George, Atlanta, GA on 4/18/17Helps me prepare for exams and review as well as reinforce what we cover in class. Picks up where the professor leaves off to be sure I have a complete grasp of the material.
"Finance"
- Diana, Dallas, TX on 1/18/17Neil has a way of making Finance easy and friendly. He explains in great detail so that one may have a better understanding of the subject. He is also very patient and encouraging.
"Grade Saver!"
- Miranda, Dallas, TX on 12/14/16I have been working with Neil on Microeconomics for the past semester. We would usually meet before an upcoming exam and he would patiently and understandably explain all theories that were unclear to me. Without Neil, I wouldn't have gotten an A. As an SMU student, it was very convenient because he could meet at Fondren Library. I would recommend Neil to everyone taking Economics. I am not the easiest person to tutor, but Neil would patiently wait for me to have my aha moment while trying to explain things in different manners so I could understand. Thank you, Neil!
"Fantastic Tutor"
- George, Dallas, TX on 12/14/16Neil is now helping my second son prep for his exams at SMU. Our experience with Neil helping our first son when he was at SMU was so good that we are carrying on the tradition. Neil has done a great job helping both my boys prep for their exams and they are both high GPA finance majors.
"Lifesaver"
- Jay, Dallas, TX on 12/14/16I was referred to Neil from a friend who had worked with him while taking Finance in his Exec MBA program. Neil was a lifesaver for me. He has a very calm and relaxed style and can help you get past the stress and explain complex problems so that you feel much more confident. I am so glad my friend told me about him.

"Extremely Patient and fantastic tutor!!"
- Caroline, North Hollywood, CA on 1/10/16I am completely new to the world of accounting, excel I am a bit shaky at, and have been out of the loop of doing math for years. Not only is Neil extremely knowledgeable in his field, he explains everything very patiently and clearly, so I feel comfortable and leave understanding the subject all the better. I will certainly be using his services again.

Thank you, your help was invaluable!
"Knowledgeable and very thoughtful and effective."
- Court, Dallas, TX on 8/9/15Neil helped me understand financial accounting. He took the time to work through every problem not just to help me get the answer, but to understand how the fundamentals work to solve the problem. I highly recommend him.

After struggling the first time I took the course, with Mr. D's help, I was able to get a B for my final grade.
