Ivy League Admissions Essays: Creative, Insightful, Great tutor.
Eric, 10 lessons with RobertBob helped me unearth and organize details from my life to create two powerful essays. I told him that it couldn’t be done, that my life was pretty ordinary, even privileged. But with his questioning and prodding, I wound up remembering small details that I thought I’d long forgotten, and soon enough, I had rough drafts. Afterward, he helped me polish and polish the results. I couldn’t be happier.
I’ve had careers in teaching, publishing, and corporate banking. I have master’s degrees in writing and business administration and have a PMP and Six Sigma Black Belt.
Given the above, I teach what I know: writing, math/business, and career development.
I’ve taught at two colleges; written and edited for newspapers and magazines for 20 years; and just retired from Truist Financial, where I ran projects and later led operational teams.

Knowledgeable and patient
(Chrissy) My daughter is learning a lot from Robert, he is knowledgeable in anything she wants to ask him about. He provides good updates on what they covered each time they have a meeting and has very good suggestions. (Megan) Robert helps greatly to understand both the importance of speed reading, and comprehension. Something I struggle with most is reading quickly, but efficiently, and Robert has improved my personal reading and writing skills immensely.

Effective and talented tutor
During just two sessions, Robert taught my son to get into mindset on writing on any topic. During last lesson, Robert provided constructive feedback on two essays my son has been working on, including a science essay. My son and myself are extremely impressed. I wish I have found Robert earlier!

He is so patient!
It was important to me to find someone who would be patient with my learning process and this was something Bob was able to do. He was kind and very good at explaining concepts in a way that I could clearly understand. He is a wealth of knowledge and I feel so fortunate to have found him to help me improve my writing skills.

Knowledgeable and Clear
Robert has been my tutor for a little over half a year now and he has helped me greatly in my English assignments and general understanding of English composition. Whenever I present him with a single sentence outlining my upcoming major English assignment, Robert dissects it, guiding me through the process of understanding and addressing the task at hand. He assists me in formulating a structured outline and a strategic plan to tackle the assignment effectively. Upon completing the first draft, Robert goes beyond mere editing; he explains the reasoning behind each edit, helping me avoid similar mistakes in the future. In summary, Robert stands out as the most articulate and supportive tutor I've ever worked with, consistently delivering clarity and invaluable assistance.
