Claire C. from Valencia, PA Abraham has all the qualities that a true teacher should possess: He is very knowledgeable - being able to answer questions quickly and concisely in a manner that makes it easy for the student to understand. He is extremely patient - since his mannerisms are calm and collected it prevents the student from becoming frustrated. Most importantly: He is inspiring - when a teacher has the ability to energize the student and take learning from being a chore to being enjoyable, well you have a great teacher! My advice: snatch Abraham up now - you will be happy with your choice and the results! This review was written by a critical mother of four sons, who has seen the impact of many teachers from kindergarten through grad school & I have been impressed with Abraham's teaching skills in tutoring my high school junior for his AP Chemistry class. He goes above and beyond to help his students!
Deborah C. from Freedom, PA I put Abraham into a difficult situation, with a daughter who dislikes chemistry and lacks organizational skills. He met with her the week before her midterm and was able to quickly assess her deficiencies, and help her with organization. He was flexible in offering her more time where needed, and developed a rapport with her. I recommend him as a patient, knowledgeable and flexible tutor!
Sean S. from Pittsburgh, PA Abraham not only demonstrates knowledge in all high school subjects across the board, but he instinctively knows how to engage a student and uncover their needs by being a good listener and asking questions. He is a master at getting our son to use his critical thinking skills, which instills a sense of accomplishment and much needed motivation. He also returns texts in a matter of minutes Abraham has made such a positive impact on our son and we can see the difference in his demeanor already. We feel very fortunate to have a teacher like Abraham tutoring our son.

He always has the lessons ready as soon as I get there, so we can get started right away. He has helped me so much through my course, and I could not recommend him more.

He has prepared specific lesson plans that are specific to my growth and development. He even goes as far as incorporating what tests I have to complete or future course work that I will encounter to better prepare me! I was skeptical on getting a tutor at first but can see a major difference even after a month. Lastly, Abraham is unique in the fact that he helps boost and build confidence in a school subject that I never thought I would feel comfortable in. I am not 'comfortable' with math just yet, but I am no longer afraid to attempt the problems either!

Rich C. from Valencia, PA We were greatly pleased to find Abraham for our junior high son. Our son was having difficulty with basic math and reading comprehension so we were in desperate need for a tutor. Abraham reviewed his test scores, identified his strengths and weaknesses, and developed an individualized plan which helped our son meet his goals. Abraham utilized several creative strategies (templates, videos) to enhance the learning process so learning was not a chore, but an endeavor that was fun and made sense to a 12 year old boy. Abraham's passion, dedication, patience, and flexibility are great assets and we were glad he could help assist our boy in developing to his fullest potential!

I would recommend him to anyone seeking help in the math or physical sciences.

Trisha H. from Ellwood City, PA The lab portion of college chemistry is a blast, the lecture and test portion not so much, but Abraham was super flexible in finding the time to work with me and help me catch up and understand some concepts not easily understood when taught by the professor.
