Testimonials
Mark R. from Pacific Palisades, CA We really liked Jim and appreciated his follow up the next day concerning an open question that arose during the tutoring session. There was a tiny bit of confusion as to the approach to the problems Matthew is being given in school. But we think that with a bit of time together, this will not be an issue. Jim has a warm and patient demeanor and is obviously qualified in very high levels of mathematics. We look forward to further lessons with him.
Nicholas G. from Topanga, CA We're really grateful for having found Jim to help with our son's high school geometry and algebra. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Jim has helped our son regain his confidence, improved his overall grasp of a difficult subject, and we receive a thorough and helpful report at the end of each lesson.
Wing C. from Pacific Palisades, CA Jim is a knowledgeable math tutor. I can tell he loves math. He teaches my daughter in ways that are easy for her to understand difficult concepts. He guides my daughter step by step to get through problems and that boosts her confidence. He makes sure my daughter understands each concept before moving on to the next one. We're lucky to have him.
Robbi S. from Pacific Palisades, CA Jim is very knowledgeable and a great teacher. You can tell he's been teaching and tutoring his whole life because he knows exactly how to explain the problems. He also knows all the shortcuts and tricks to solving the equations. I will continue to use him and highly recommend his services.
