On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.

We hired Susan to help our daughter Caidyn with Geometry. Susan made her feel comfortable and worked hard to make sure she understood her lessons. Susan was flexible with her time when Caidyn needed extra help to get through her work. Caidyn's grade went up significantly because of the help she got. If we need help again in the future, we will definitely hire Susan.

I have worked with Ammar for a couple semesters. I was lost with my algebra class and he was such an amazing teacher who went above and beyond in helping me. I even asked for his help in my physics class. He was always on top of things and explaining in ways I would understand. Because of his help I was able to get the A's that I needed for my program. I would highly recommend Ammar. He is very kind and trustworthy and I will use him for any future help I may need, highly recommended 10/10!!
