Trig

Any, 19 lessons with Chris

Knowledgeable

I was lost in precalculus . Chris helped me simplify and solve the problems I was struggling with. We worked on equations until I felt comfortable. I was able to transfer what I knew onto paper.

Mary, 2 lessons with Chris

Very professional

Chris is very professional and is what you need in a tutor, someone who won’t be giving you the answer instead he will be teaching you the how to in a patient manner with a great attitude. Highly recommended.

Liza, 2 lessons with Chris

Knowledegable and patient tutor

Chris helped me prepare for the ACT Math section. He taught me to make sure I am thoroughly reading the question before rushing to answer it. We went over past mistakes, and a lot of my errors were because I had not read the question as stated.

Joseph, 4 lessons with Chris

Very helpful.

Chris helped mostly with SAT math. He was always on time and very responsive to communication and scheduling. Through his tutoring, SAT math confidence is much higher.

Amber, 4 lessons with Chris

Chris helped my son go over his past test and explained the concepts he was still unclear on. Chris explains things in a way my son can understand and goes over multiple examples to make sure he is clear on the concepts.

Warren, 5 lessons with Chris

Helo with Precalculus Honors

Chris was very helpful in assisting Ryan review for a test he took today. Ryan had missed a couple days of school last week so was behind on the topic. Ryan found it very helpful to discuss out loud the topic and review with Chris. He took his test and got a 19 out 19.5! Will contact Chris again in the future!
