Patient tutor

Very helpful. Was able to break down the information into manageable pieces to understand. This is my first and only accounting and he was very patient with me as I asked all the questions.

Knowledgeable, patient, and flexible tutor

I had a midterm in managerial accounting that I was desperately unprepared for. James was quick to respond to my request for a tutor and was flexible with my work schedule. We ran through all my study material over several sessions in one week, and I was able to grasp the concepts and comfortably take my midterm. I received an A+! Thanks, James!

Jocelynn, 2 lessons with James

James is Great!

We had a very intense midterm to prepare for in strategic financial management. James read through our material, made himself knowledgeable and came prepared to guide our understanding and help us receive understanding we were not grasping in our lectures.

Aaron, 2 lessons with James

Knowledgeable tutor with excellent teaching skills

James helped me prep for my first exam in ACCT 116 A at Mesa College. James knows his (Assets = Liability + Stockholders Equity) equation very well. He was on target the entire session and recalled the instruction material from memory without hesitation. I would highly recommend James to anyone who needs help with Accounting. I feel more confident going into exam one now that I have met James and plan on having more sessions with James in the future. Covered journal entries, adjusting journal entries, adjusted trial balance, retained earnings statements , income statements, and balance sheets. Additionally we covered account classification: assets, liability, stockholders equity, revenue, and expense accounts. Also covered terminology for defining qualitative characteristics of accounting and accounting concepts, principles, and assumptions.

Highly Experienced and Patient Tutor

I received tutoring from James on Managerial accounting for an MBA class. He was able to explain the conceptual side of each problem so I could fully understand the questions in preparation for a final exam. James is an accounting professor and has been doing accounting work for years.
