Jeff has been working with my son for about 3 months and the improvements in his writing skills…read morehave been significant. Our son is 14 and in 9th grade, he is very bright but has struggled with writing since elementary school. His lack of confidence in his ability to write was beginning to impact all of his course work even math and science. Jeff quickly gained his attention, which is not an easy thing to do with a 14 year old boy. He has helped him to understand the basics of essay structure and build confidence in his own abilities. The confidence and knowledge that he has gained from working with Jeff has already been reflected in his grades for his first quarter in high school. I am pleased to endorse All Things Writing Northwest.

Not only Ben knows the gmat content extremely well , but he has taken the gmat a few times with stella scores and He has a strategy for solving any type of question the test can throw at you. His method of working is very organized where you can track every type of question and identify weaknesses, which he will help you tackle one by one and you will see you score increasing in your practice tests Working with Ben in two months I was able to score 690 with a Q47 in the Real test. He was not just an hourly rate tutor he became my gmat coach, helping me with GMAT content and with concentration and relaxation techniques for the exam, and he kept motivating me to reach my target score.

This review is based on a few interactions that I had with Bill recently while I was interested in…read morebecoming his French Student. I ended up not becoming a student of his, because he and I agreed that it was not the best personality fit. So, please keep in mind that I am reviewing Bill from that rather limited experience with him. That being said, I am still giving Bill a 5 star review because I could tell that he takes French tutoring very seriously and that he puts his all into his tutoring sessions. I also thought that Bill was very prompt and professional in his communication with me. I would recommend only reaching out to Bill if you are ready to schedule right away (otherwise he may fill your preferred slot with someone else within 24 - 48 hours!) and also only if you already have an internet speed of 100 mbps or higher. Bill requires this internet speed in order to tutor someone via Zoom calls, because he wants to minimize the chances of tech issues such as freezing and dropped calls. This requirement seems reasonable to me, and it makes sense. My internet speed was 50 mbps when I first reached out to him, and shortly after Bill informed me about his internet speed requirement, I scheduled with my internet provider to come out and change my internet speed to 400 mbps. This was something that I figured was a good idea to get done anyway, even though I was already starting to get the sense that Bill wasn't the best fit for me personality-wise. The first available appointment that my internet provider had for me was one week after I called them. Well before my internet provider came out to change my internet speed to fit Bill's requirement, Bill had already filled the scheduling spot that I'd been interested in with someone else. None of Bill's other open spots in his schedule suited my schedule, and, as I have already mentioned, this was not a good personality fit, so I had a brief, pleasant, professional communication exchange with Bill in this vein, and Bill and I pleasantly wished each other well. Bill referred me to the L'Alliance Francaise for a French tutor, a solid and reasonable recommendation. The reason that I did not feel that it is a good personality fit is that I tend to be more laid-back (although I am very reliable) and Bill to me came across as extremely high-pressure, which I don't like and don't thrive around. I'm very self-motivated, and extremely high-pressure to me seems unnecessary, off-putting, and overboard. However, if you are more the type who either doesn't mind high-pressure personalities and/or needs a kick in the rear to get things done, Bill may be a perfect fit for you. Last note, Bill's schedule is almost completely full so he is in very high demand as a tutor - and he will let you know that! It's nice that Bill is in high demand. I think that how someone handles a bad personality fit speaks volumes about their character, and I thought Bill handled it well.

When I entered his studio for the first time, it was with great trepidation and doubt, but at the ripe old age of 45, I just couldn't put off approaching my dream of French fluency any longer. To my delight and surprise, Bill had me speaking within 30 minutes. Learning language with him is invigorating and exciting, and unlike any teaching experience I've had before. The lessons go by too quickly, it's such fun, and his firm but kind accuracy and explanations provide one with the sense of being saturated with content of the highest caliber. Can't say enough good things about Bill as a language instructor.

This program taught her how to visualize and introduced her to mental math. She now has an increased confidence and new enthusiasm towards math. She really enjoyed going to her abacus math class and wants to continue - they made math fun for her! We are very happy to see the progress our daughter made in a relatively short time. We are grateful to her teacher, Ms Jan, who was very motivating and patient. Ms Jan has a wonderful way of working with my daughter, the entire class, and us (parents) to ensure success. I recommend Abacus West as a math enrichment option. This local company takes the time to understand the background of each child before the first class even begins. This program teaches kids to develop their visual skills while making math fun to learn.
