great teacher

Mr Pete was patient and helped me out with my math course. He is an excellent teacher! I am booking another session tomorrow

Carmela, 2 lessons with Pete

Patient & knowledgeable

Pete was great tutoring my 8th grade daughter with Algebra I! He takes the time to explain things to her without feeling rushed! We’ve scheduled another session for next week!

Holly, 14 lessons with Pete

Knowledgeable & pleasant tutor.

Pete taught me about linear functions and how lines intersect. Pete took time to teach me all about it and I learned a lot. I know understand how to do linear functions and intersections.

Shar, 1 lesson with Pete

Highly Recommend Pete!

This is our third child to work with Pete and we are so grateful he has time to work with him. Pete is the most experienced tutor you will ever hire for your kids. He doesn’t do this work for the money, but rather he does it to make a difference for kids in a subject he enjoys staying up to date teaching. You will be very lucky if Pete has time to work for you. We know how lucky we are to have him teaching our kids. He is smart, patient and kind. What a bright spot in our world. Thank you so much Peter for your generosity and gift of knowledge.

Trish

Amazing. He showed up on time. Very professional. I will admit I wasn't as prepared as I would have like to have been but he helped me jump right in and did an excellent job explaining every problem along the way. Can't wait for the next lesson!

Patricia, 5 lessons with Pete

Very nice and knowledgeable

Pete worked with Sam on geometry. He is struggling with some of the concepts and Pete was very patient and positive. Sam was able to focus and complete his assignment. Pete is a true professional!

Marla, 7 lessons with Pete

Algebra 1. Great First time with Tutor

My Daughter liked working with Peter very much. She felt at ease and comfortable asking him questions. He also showed her things she didn't know how to do on her calculator. We are very happy with Peter.

Cindy, 68 lessons with Pete

Excellent high school math tutor

Mr. P. has been working with my daughter on Trigonometry for about 6 months. During that time she went from barely passing to receiving solid grades on each test, and her confidence has increased drastically. In her words "math just flows out of him and the way he shows me how to solve problems lets me actually understand them." He is an excellent tutor and I have nothing but positive things to say about him.

Joel, 16 lessons with Pete

Great tutor

Pete is a treasure! I'm so glad we found him. He makes geometry so much easier for my daughter. He's better than pricier tutors we have used in the past.

Gwendolyn, 50 lessons with Pete

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

My 16 yr old son was very apprehensive about having a tutor but when it was all over he was very happy, said he learned a lot and actually asked me when his next session was!
