About this tutor
Our students become confident in math after 4-5 sessions. Their parents see the difference in performance immediately.
We love to see the lightbulb turn on when understanding of a math concept is achieved. We live for those "ah ha" moments.

Lester took the time to teach me in the learning style that best suited me,along with the students around me. Spending individual time with me making sure I fully understood what he was teaching me. It was easy to see that he did this with my classmates as well. I can personally say that without the tutoring from Lester I would not have graduated high school.
