I was referred through another family whose son got into UCLA after working with Ben. Ben helped my son improve 7 points on the ACT to a 33 score. Now my son is eligible for a lot of scholarships and has even gotten a full-ride offer from a few schools. I'm so grateful to Ben for being able to help my son - he is an awesome tutor!

Hunter is very good tutor. He helps you work through problems on your own, while answering questions that lead you to understand the topic. He challenges you, and doesn't give you the answers right away. Overall, Hunter has a good personality and works well with students who are struggling. He was encouraging of me to keep trying after still not fully understanding.

Japjeev is the first tutor that my son went to, she was a catalyst in motivating him in becoming independent at "try first and then ask for help". She connected well with him and helped him with his after school homework assignments as well as critiquing his writings. I highly recommend her to 7th grade Math students who need help in their daily school assignments.
