"Statistics"
- Isaac, Virginia Beach, VA on 3/25/16Muhammad took the time to explain the 'Z' table and its elements, before assisting with the problems in Excel. I walked away understanding the material thoroughly.
"Knowledgeable & patient tutor"
- DENISE, Virginia Beach, VA on 3/14/16Muhammad was very patient with me and figured everything out. He was tremendously helpful and I truly appreciate him.
Update 3/14/16 - thought he was a great tutor however the assignment he helped me with on 3/1/16 earned me a grade of a 10/25.
On 3/9 I had a tutoring session with Muhammad and he abruptly ended the session 30 min in because I suppose he was not familiar with the statistics homework. He rescheduled for 3/10/16. On 3/10/16 he rescheduled again, last minute and my assignment was due 3/11/16. He rushed through it, referred me to Youtube and I had to pay for a service I basically did not receive. I would not use him again and I let him know this. He then replied and was sarcastic and said " sorry I'm still at work". This was on 3/11/16 when I was desperate for help at this point since my assignment was due in a few hours. Never again!
"Very Knowledgeable"
- Bardoro, Virginia Beach, VA on 11/14/15We went over how to calculate NPV, IRR for business investments. Tutor is very knowledgeable and can teach on your individual level.
