Helm Tutors

John is a talented, brilliant, kind, patient, and intuitive tutor. He clearly lives in the math world and makes that a cool place for his students to explore. However he also understands the emotional needs of his students and the tempo of their learning and when to push harder or when to back off and give more time for things to sink in. He knows well when the student gets the material and will not move too rapidly if something needs to be explained over again. He will think of different ways to present the material until the student owns it. I felt such a sense of calm and gratitude when John would work with my children. I know you will also feel the same.

My daughter had faced challenges with Math over the years due to fear and teachers who were not very patient or committed to teaching. After a few session with Helm Tutors, she developed a better understanding of the material and worked through problems using the online environment with his assistance. Not only did she learn and master the material, but she also developed a confidence in her own knowledge and abilities to the extent that she has become a student volunteer to help younger students through her high school. She is more determined to master new challenges in math and now has a comfort level to dig in and study hard.
