Ricky S. says, "Honestly, I don't think I would have passed my certification without High Peak Education. Paul was amazing - seriously so patient with me even though I probably asked a million questions. He never made me feel dumb or rushed, which was huge for me. I was really struggling with some of the material and getting pretty stressed about the test, but Paul just had this way of explaining things that finally made it click. He didn't just throw information at me - he actually made sure I got it before moving on. The whole experience was way better than I expected. I actually felt prepared going into my test instead of just hoping for the best. And I passed! If you're thinking about using them for your certification prep, definitely do it. Paul knows his stuff and genuinely cares about helping you succeed. Can't ask for much more than that." Read more

I love doing problems and helping others understand concepts. I can apply math and science concepts to other areas of a student's life so that they make sense and are easily remembered. I have been tutoring students since high school, continuing through Ivy League schooling, and continuously on the side while working as a patent attorney, engineer, and computer developer.
