I really loved working with Andrew as he helped me really understand any concept I was struggling with. Rather than talking at me for an hour, he personalized each lesson to my needs and as a result I ended up scoring much better on tests and quizzes than I had been pre-andrew. In the beginning of my time with Andrew, he asked me how I learn best and how he can accommodate me. I have never had any tutor ask me that, and as a result I felt that we really clicked and found a rhythm that worked for both of us rather quickly. Andrew was incredibly patient with me and even when I was struggling he listened to what I was saying and explained the issue as many times as I needed. I succeeded in my AP class because of Andrew.

I can't recommend Arno enough! I passed both Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 because of his amazing tutoring. When we first started, my understanding of basic chemistry was very limited, Arno spent hoursss patiently teaching me the fundamentals and making sure I was fully prepared for quizzes. He created a comfortable learning environment where I felt at ease asking questions and was always very patient. If you need tutoring, Arno is the one! 1000/10

SAT Tutoring with Ajay resulted in 120 point improvement in less than 2 months. So long as your student comes prepared with practice tests completed, the sessions are focused and productive.

Bryan was immensely helpful in tutoring me, noticeably thoughtful, knowledgable, and thorough. He thoroughly explained advanced topics such as integrals in my class to me, ultimately helping me grasp these advanced concepts and excel in class. Thanks to bryan, I have a greater grasp on not only my class topics, but in understanding complex concepts in math in a general sense. High recommend!

Helped develop your skills by not giving you the answer but rather pushing you to find the answer yourself. Always available to give extra help or an extra push if it is necessary.

I have known Felipe since summer 2017, and I have been beyond pleased with the results that he has produced. I have found Felipe to be a very clear communicator with an interest to inform all parties of his plans and the expectations he has of his students. He is quick to respond to requests and detailed in his explanations. Felipe is an intuitive instructor and customizes his approach with each student. He is thoughtful and encouraging in addition to be firm and being clear about what needs to happen. Another very positive attribute is that Felipe is interested in feedback from students and actively solicits this feedback to improve his teaching skills. Felipe is also eager to receive feedback and constructive criticism. He enjoys the opportunity to brainstorm ways he can tackle more complicated student behaviors. He is aggressive in his search for how to best serve his students, drive results, and be creative in his methods.
Based on Felipe’s work and his results, I would highly recommend his services. He is caring, hardworking and wants what is best for students.

We are more than happy with Tennyson’s skill, approach and professionalism. She is organized, efficient, and thorough in her teaching strategies. She is personable and accommodating. After a frustrating year with lack of support from her regular math teacher, my daughter has felt confident again!! I can’t recommend Tennyson enough!
