Testimonials
Brian L. from San Diego, CA I finished my last lesson in Physics from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University with Gene and it has been a pleasure learning from him. I had heard many rumors about taking Physics in college and how tough it can be for many people to grasp all the concepts, laws and formulas. I reached out to Gene from the beginning and couldn't have done it without his guidance and coaching along the way. He is an awesome guy and his teaching methods are right on track! I will miss his friendship as well. I highly recommend Gene to anyone!
Elvie B. from San Marcos, CA Among all the Physics tutors that my daughter has received help from, Gene is the most knowledgable and experienced. He can explain any problem with ease. Most of all, he promotes critical thinking, a very valuable skill for success in any math or science-related field.
Sarah C. from La Jolla, CA Gene is a very knowledgeable tutor in Physics, it was incredibly helpful having him help me understand the concepts of this subject better. He was able to catch my weaknesses and help me improve my ability in applying Physics knowledge into problem solving. He is very flexible in his teaching style and does his best to serve his student well. I highly recommend Gene to anybody who is looking to understand the subject and not just trying to get answers on how to solve a problem. Overall, he's an awesome tutor!
Daniel W. from San Diego, CA My son is receiving tutoring from Dr. Gene, and from his test scores, I can tell that Dr. Gene is quite the expert. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable in the subject, he also has the aptitude for teaching students of all types. Choosing Dr. Gene as a tutor is the smart thing to do, you won't regret it, and neither will your child.
Garrett R. from San Diego, CA Gene has been a great tutor for my son who is taking AP Physics C. He works on ensuring my son understands the big picture concepts and not just on the individual problems. He assigns additional materials outside of what my son's class requires which helps my son to have a better understanding of the fundamentals. Gene is very knowledgeable and patient - I would highly recommend him as a tutor.
Johnny R. from San Diego, CA Dr Gene is a very knowledgeable and skilled tutor. I failed my first exam in Linear Algebra before going to him, after only a couple weeks of tutoring by him I got a B on my second exam. I continued to see him and I expect a high B or A on my final, which I just took. Highly recommend him.
Jonathan L. from San Diego, CA Gene is absolutely the best Tutor. Gene helped me work through the statistics requirement for a graduate degree that I was working on. He was amazing. Very patient and able to distill complex theories down to a level that were quickly and easily understood. I would not hesitate in recommending Gene.
Izabel H. from San Diego, CA Gene worked very thoroughly and meticulously with my daughter and her physics class work from UCSD. She was completely new to the subject, and was struggling, but she finished the class with a A-. Thank you Gene
Corey S. from San Diego, CA I presented Dr. Gene with many questions from a book he had never worked with and his knowledge of calculating probability were very impressive. He was patient and when we got into calculus he knew it off the top of his head. If you have problems with math, I highly recommend him.
Austin G. from San Diego, CA Dr. Gene is an Excellent tutor! He explains difficult math concepts by breaking them down into understandable steps. He is more then proficient in all subjects of math and brings a level of understanding that you would only get from a seasoned math professor, which he is. Every tutoring Session I have had with Dr. Gene I left with a better understanding of the material and confidence to tackle harder problems on my own. In addition to the above he is very personable and easy to talk to, taking a vested interest in the success of his students. Overall a great tutor!
Billy F. from San Diego, CA Dr. Gene has been incredible in helping me with my studies. My grades have shown significant improvement as a result of our sessions. He is very friendly and welcoming, and easy to understand. In terms of tutoring he goes over material conceptually and also helps to solve problems (homework and such). Because of his knowledge in various fields, I have gained a significant amount of understanding of my courses. I highly recommend his services, it would be an understatement to say that his sessions are extremely worth it.
Aisha I. from La Jolla, CA Dr. Gene is an extremely knowledgeable physicist and he did a great job helping me survive through my upper division physics class! Very efficient in his work and really interested in the student learning the material for life. I hope to be a good physicist someday and Dr. Gene is a great inspiration!
Carly K. from San Diego, CA Met with Dr. Gene for a total of about 5 hours. He helped me understand this chapter of physics much, much better than my own teacher. He really takes the time to make sure everything is being understood and understood correctly. Has confidence that I can greatly raise my grade if we continue with our lessons and I agree. Definitely would recommend him to another student in need of physics tutoring.
Jill W. from San Diego, CA Physics is definitely one of my weakest subjects in school and I failed the first test of the semester. I met with Gene 3 times before my next midterm and got an 80 on the exam, which curved to be a grade A. Gene has been very patient with me and adapted to my styles of learning to make sure I grasp the concepts. I thought I would be a lost cause knowing close to nothing at all, but Gene quickly taught me and I had never felt so confident going into a physics test! I highly recommend him as a tutor as long as you are willing to work and stay focused!
Johanna G. from Encinitas, CA We have had the benefit of Calculus BC tutoring by Gene T. on a bi-weekly basis for several months now. His teaching and guidance have exceeded my expectations. Prowess in a field does not always co-incide with the ability to teach. Gene is not only extremely knowledgeable in his field, with an impeccable background, but is able to impart this to his students. I was also impressed with his ability to address not only possible weak areas in the subject foundations, but also good insights on underlying issues such as an ineffective strategies for reading, answering and editing problems and test material.
Helen L. from San Diego, CA Dr Gene is a superior tutor for my son in trigonometry and calculus. He is very knowledgeable and experienced, and can point out where my son?s weakness is right after the first lesson. He tries to find out my son?s learning style and customizes his teaching to suit his needs. I like the fact that he provides homework to reinforce learning and provides parents with a brief review for each lesson to keep them informed. Best of all, he promotes study skill and critical thinking which is very important for independent learning later in life. I highly recommend Dr Gene to anyone.
Randy W. from San Diego, CA My son has been struggling with Calculus II in college. After just the first session with Gene, my son exclaimed that he is "getting it." Not only is Gene knowledgeable with the subject, but he has understood and quickly zeroed in on the kind of help my son needs with the subject. We feel very fortunate to have found Gene!
Jeremy B. from Vista, CA Dr. Gene was an incredible help during my graduate course in mathematics, leading me through the complex steps in a way that was easy to remember and made sense. I recommend him to anyone looking to raise their understanding and competency, as well as their grade.
Justin Y. from San Diego, CA Well qualified, possesses every desirable attribute you could ask for in a tutor. He is Professional, patient, and has that quality of knowing what it is you need to study. I'll be going back to Dr. Gene.
Russell L. from Encinitas, CA Gene is a really great tutor who helps you solve the problems on your own. He works to empower you with the knowledge to handle questions.
Taylor L. from La Mesa, CA Great tutor! Gene was so helpful and was able to explain everything to me. I would definitely recommend him for tutoring.
Jonathan H. from San Diego, CA I recently had tutoring from Gene for my Physics class. We had 3 sessions the week before my final and if it were not for Gene I would have failed the class. But, more importantly I wouldn't have learned what I wanted to in this class. Gene has a "no nonsense" style of tutoring. He forces you to think for yourself before providing necessary help. I found this extremely useful in helping prepare for my exam. I highly recommend Gene to anyone looking to LEARN their subject material. Don't come to Gene expecting him to give you all the answers without being prepared to try it for yourself. He will give you the tools you need to succeed.
