Maura W.

27 lessons

Her steadfast patience in reviewing key concepts (including those from prior years, if necessary) and identifying areas in which my son needed reinforcement was both thorough and impressive. Her coaching, guidance and systematic reviewing of the curriculum has brought him from a C in Algebra I in the first semester to an A- in the second and third, an his performance has earned him a placement into honors math next year.

when my godson announced 12 hours before his exam that he needed help with the material, i thought, no way can i find someone to pitch in. luckily, i was wrong. bradley, in the role of the shining white knight rode to the rescue! he provided my godson with a thorough review of the material he was responsible for and helped with those things he was unsure of. i'm grateful for his help.
Kyle K.

3 lessons

He went above and beyond all expectations and was very fair with pricing. In one lesson we got caught up on 1 specific problem toward the end and spent a decent amount of time on it but Dave didn't charge for that time and within a few hours sent me a message with a thorough explanation of how he got the right solution. Would definitely reccomend.
