As a result, my son, has felt confident in math and science for the first two years of high school and with Terry's help, I am confident he will continue to as Terry tutors him. Terry has always worked with us on meeting places and if we have missed a session, he offers us to meet him at another location. Such fair prices and we are truly lucky we found him! Thank you Terry! -Parent of a student at Sunset High School

Jess is an excellent, compassionate and intuitive tutor. My son saw Jess once or twice a week for…read moreabout a year and a half. Having homeschooled for several years due to some medical issues, he was behind in math and had very little confidence that he could catch up. He liked Jess from the very start, and she was patient, but persistent, with his lack of study skills. In that year and a half, he went from a kid who thought he was dumb and unable to learn math, to a confident, accepted university student who tested out of first year math requirements! I really can't say enough about how much Jess helped him, not just in math, but in study skills, confidence in his own ability, GED and SAT prep, and just by being a kind, stable person in his life. I give her the highest recommendation possible.

Our son didn't do very well on the SAT the first time he took it. We heard about Tutor Doctor…read morethrough a friend, and were really impressed with the professionalism of communication and feedback. The tutor was matched well to our son, we got detailed weekly feedback on how he was doing...and when he retook the SAT he improved his score by 110 points, and got into his first-choice college. Satisfied customer!

It was a pleasure working with Tutor Doctor. We loved our tutor, she was very responsive to our…read moresons needs, part of which was making sure the experience was fun for him. He got help with writing and math for second grade. He was behind with writing due to a mild physical issue, so really just needed extra practice to gain strength in his hands. Our tutor found fun ways to keep him on it, while also allowing him to show off his advanced story telling and imagination skills. I will also ad, and this is important, when we had some issues with billing, my fault for not reading the agreement carefully, not theirs, they were extremely accommodating and made sure our family felt good about the experience. Seeing what a business does when things get messed up tells you so much more about the integrity of the business owner than when things go smoothly. Good people running this business, we will definitely reach out again if our kids needs support.

Don't trust this man. He said he went to Caltech and MIT and taught, as a professor, at CalTech…read more There is no record of him online of doing any of those things. I should've known when he said "I'm super cool, I'm super chill, I'm super cool, super laid back". Anyone who says that... isn't. He was manic and un-showered and smelled and was absolutely insane. It doesn't seem that hard to wash your hands before you go and teach someone. His hair looked like he dipped his head in oil and his hands had never been washed in his life. He told me to google something at one point and took my phone from me, within 2 mins of meeting him. He had to take a smoke break during our *2 hour, $165 session*. He does seem to understand math, I'll give him that, but he is not a good teacher. He did the work for me when I explicitly stated I want to do it and just have him help me when I need it. I wanted a challenge. He taught me nothing. I tried to learn. I thought I was just being a bad student at first and was judging too hard. No, he's just not legit. He went off and talked about other subjects of math that I'm NOT EVEN IN. Of course, he was reading a calculus book too. Completely cliché. He talked nonstop about his 22 year old student Izzy and how he was texting her. I'm not sure why he had to mention her so many times or her age. Who knows if she's even real. I had to redirect his attention so many times, he constantly cut me off when I'd ask if we could start on my homework... instead would talk about his lawyer friends in LA. So weird. His reviews are not real, by the way. Go on google. All 207+ 5 star reviews are made from fake accounts, with names like "Becky White" and "Robert smith" with a stock photo image, and the only review they've ever left is for this "tutor". Not a coincidence. Same with his Facebook reviews. Don't let him scam you. I was cheated out of $165 by a con artist.

Tina's help this past year has not only helped me pass pre-calc, but also regain the math…read moreconfidence I had lost in my first two years of high school. I was really struggling in my pre-calc class earlier this year, and went to Tina for help. Not only did she show me useful tricks and techniques to approach problems, but she explained broader concepts that have helped understand math, instead of simply going through the motions. She also tutored me for the SAT, and my score was 380 better than my initial PSAT. She helped me relive my stress around the test, and tackle problems with confidence. I am so happy with the support I got from Tina she last year-she was a life saver. I would 100% reccomend her services!!

They are both very different kids with different learning styles. Tina really took the time to know them individually, to pace instruction with their needs and personalities. Even if they're tired or grumbling on the way to tutoring, they usually emerge energized and excited. They especially loved the math tricks and shortcuts Tina taught them. It makes them feel like they have a secret tool or a super power. Tina is patient, gifted and flexible, a real pleasure to work with.
