Knowledgeable and Flexible.

John is very knowledgeable about many of the topics that I provided him on the spot. He really makes sure to elaborate on many of the details I was struggling with, allowing me to sort through my thoughts much easier. Additionally, he is an extremely flexible tutor, which made scheduling with him incredibly easy.

Excellent, extremely reliable tutor!

Mr. John L is a very excellent tutor for my high school daughter. He’s helping her complete 3 economics/social studies projects. He’s very friendly, patient, flexible, thorough, and puts in a lot of effort. He helped make the assignments much less overwhelming for her in little time. He makes sure everything is completed before moving onto the next section. He’s very respectful of our time and replies very quickly. I highly recommend him for help with any kind of assignment!
