Barry tutored me in my Finance Class for eight weeks; he was always on time and prepared. Barry was able to explain/share his vast knowledge of finance and accounting in layman terms. With Barry's help, I was able to quickly improve my grades and pass my class. Barry was also able to accommodate my busy schedule.


Jessica L. from Owings Mills, MD

Barry was able to improve my performance so much that I was able to achieve an "A" in my class. Where previously I struggled and I was barely able to understand the subject material, he was extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter (in my case, Business Finance for my undergraduate degree). He was very patient and professional. He offered several types of sessions including face-to-face and online. He was also very flexible in terms of schedules and worked with me to find the best day and time for me and was always prompt. Barry was an excellent tutor and I would highly recommend him to any student looking to improve their skills in any type of finance, accounting, tax or business classes.


Serena F. from Pasadena, MD

With the help of Mr. S., my grades improved in my economics and finance class from an 88% average to a 92% average. He is definitely very helpful, precise, and on time every time. Highly recommended!!


Sherry S. from Ewa Beach, HI

First of all tutoring with Barry is a joyful experience! He makes the lessons easy, engaging, and comfortable. I was struggling in a finance class and found Barry as a tutor on WyzAnt. After each lesson Barry sent excel documents to help with each word finance problem I had for homework. I learned how to compute the finance problem and increased in excel formula knowledge. Overall, my experience with Barry was five (5) stars! I completed my finance class with an A for a final grade! Thank you Barry! :)


Lynnette D. from Pflugerville, TX

I needed help with several college level accounting II problems I was struggling with as well as a few concepts I wasn't completely grasping. Barry explained them with ease and in a way that helped me to quickly understand. Connecting online was a breeze. I wish Barry was the professor teaching my accounting II course. Thanks Barry!


Maria C. from Ellicott City, MD

I am a working professional enrolled in an EMBA program. I have a limited business background and needed assistance with Financial Accounting. Barry was fantastic. He was patient, explained concepts in clear detail, and took the time to make sure I understood what we were working on. I would highly recommend him to anyone.


Rita C. from Upper Marlboro, MD

Barry is an excellent tutor who is extremely knowledgeable in the areas of Accounting and Finance. On my first attempt taking graduate-level Managerial Accounting, I was on the brink of failure, so I made the tough decision to withdraw. On my second-attempt at the course I sought out a tutor to help me through, and I am so glad that I found Barry. Immediately his affordable hourly rate stood out to me among the other tutors. Barry and I met once per week and some cases twice per week. He was always flexible to accommodate to my schedule and he was easily accessible and exceptionally responsive via e-mail and by phone. He helped me solve tough homework problems and reviewed the problems I completed on my own. He helped me study for exams and worked with me throughout the course, whenever I needed help. As a result of Barry's assistance, I noticed my grades continually improve throughout the semester. At the end of the course, I couldn't believe that I received an "A" in the very course I withdrew from the year prior due to being on the brink of failure. I am so thankful for Barry's tutelage and I can't wait to work with him again in the fall on my graduate-level Finance course.


Betty M. from Stevensville, MD

Barry, It was great to meet you!! Thanks so much! I am feeling much better about this, and when I hit the books again tomorrow, I will be in good shape. I will get the other problem done too and send a doc to you. Thanks for being prompt efficient, and kind!


Mitchell E. from Hanover, MD

Barry is a great teacher and a great guy. Even though I have severe math phobia, Barry always puts me at ease and describes math in terms I can grasp. Highly recommended!


Warren C. from Waldorf, MD

I found Barry while struggling with Accounting I. I sought his help again when taking Accounting II. He is extremely knowledgeable and very patient. I will look for Barry when I begin my finance course. I can't think of anyone I would rather have help in these areas than Barry. Most highly recommended.

Wendy D. from Bowie, MD

Barry is a wonderful tutor. I was struggling in my Financial Accounting graduate course. Barry helped me to understand the areas that were causing issues for me. I'm a perfectionist; so overcoming challenges is a must for me. After Barry's help, I received an A for the course.


Ken E. from La Plata, MD

Barry S - each session that I have had with him has been very thorough and informative. His patience and understanding of the material presented for me has been unquestionable - did not mind going over the information more than once to ensure I understood and my questions to him were explained. Thanks Mr. S!

Thanks to Barry I am passing my class with a good grade! He was so patient and when I just didn't catch on, he would take the time to find another way to explain the concept to me so that I could understand! I recommend him to anyone needing to understand finance and accounting; his help made a world of difference to me. He was always on time and smiling, and in a pleasant mood ready to start. Wonderful experience!

Kristy L. from Waldorf, MD

I found this tutor online and he had good reviews so I decided to go with him because of a crunch for time. He was on time when he met me and from the beginning explained how he tutored and then got right to the point. He tutored me in financing and was EXTREMELY knowledgeable in all aspects of this subject. It took him no time to help me with all of my questions. I really couldnt' have asked for a better experience.


Terri C. from Finksburg, MD

Barry is a thorough, competent, and patient instructor. He is extremely knowledgable in the accounting field. Our sessions are rather long due to the subject matter, and he has helped me to grasp the intricate details of tax work very patiently. He is experienced in teaching, which really makes him stand out as a tutor. I would recommend him to anyone with questions in the accounting arena.


Bonita S. from Fort Washington, MD

Barry was a great tutor, very patient and then allowed me to ask questions on the overview of the assignment! I will definitely be using him again.

This is the best tutor I have had. Very computer savvy. Will take the time to make sure you understand concepts.


Megan B. from Glen Burnie, MD

Barry was an awesome tutor! He helped me once a week for 6 weeks in order for me to pass my business finance class. He was super kind and very patient. We met multiple times in person and the last few weeks online since it was easier on my schedule. He was readily available every week I needed him and always flexible if I needed to reschedule. Definitely recommend him for anything with numbers, he is a financial genius!


Sherri T. from Fort Washington, MD

Mr. Barry by FAR was the best tutor I've every had. He was very patient, knowledgeable and mentoring. Also he was respectful of time and helped me understand the material better than my instructor.


Nikki M. from Glen Burnie, MD

Last semester I had a professor that was so confusing and literally was giving us incorrect information based on fundamentals of accounting. Barry showed me some simple tricks for a process she made super complicated. Great tutor! I highly recommend if you need an accounting/finance guru!


Meriane O. from Pasadena, MD

Mr. Barry saved my life last semester! I took a very hard financial class and he helped me understand the problems I had for homework, and to study for my tests. I am very happy I found this tutor, and I can't thank him enough for all of his help!
