Tracy R. from Benicia, CA

Richard was a great tutor for my daughter. He was calm and patient with her. He explained the concepts well and in a way that was easy for her to understand. He gave her positive encouragement every step of the way. I would highly recommend Richard!


Art G. from Vallejo, CA

Richard is dedicated and focus. He is on time and well-mannered. He listens and targeted my son's algebra problem areas. So far it has being a great experience meeting Richard.


Alexandra C. from Lafayette, CA

Richard is wonderful! My daughter's geometry grade has gone up from a C to a B+ in the few months since Richard began helping her. She says Richard explains the material in a manner that is so easy to understand, and of course her confidence has gone up too because of it, and it shows in her work. Richard will hopefully be with us through high school!


Melen R. from Vallejo, CA

Richard was able to squeeze my daughter in his schedule last night to help her review in preparation for her test today. Thank you!


Carley B. from Benicia, CA

He was very nice and helpful. He answered all of my questions from homework assignments to past tests. He didn't move on until I completely understood the concepts. I look forward to our next tutoring session.


Michelle S. from Benicia, CA

Richard is extremely patient and knowledgeable. My daughter grasps the concepts easily and currently has a B+ in her class, I highly recommend Richard if you want to see a positive improvement in all around understanding. He has helped my daughter with geometry.


Monica S. from Benicia, CA

Richard is an excellent tutor. He has the patience that my husband and I don't have when it comes to working with our daughter! We picked the best tutor for her.


Julie O. from Vallejo, CA

My granddaughter's algebra grade has greatly improved, thanks to Richard. He is able to explain concepts very well, which help to increase my grand daughter's comprehension and confidence. Thank you, Richard! She had her last session, with Richard, on June 5th. They spent the time reviewing the material for her final exam. She expressed confidence in doing well on the final exam, next Tuesday, thanks to the tutoring from Richard. Thank you, Richard. She could not have had a more excellent tutor. You will be our choice,in the future, should the need arises.


Liza S. from Vallejo, CA

Both my boys are over 17 years old. They needed help in Geometry. Our school system issued math books with poorly written lessons. We needed a tutor with the ability to help my older boys see math in a different way. Not only did Richard provide knowledge, he even brought a school book from another school district that has proven successful across the board. Richard is patient, kind, and willing to explain a topic in many ways until the boys understood. Richard is respectful and willing to work around personal parameters. We highly recommend Richard for Math! We thank WyzAnt for providing such a wonderful service!


Lucia T. from Vallejo, CA

Richard is the best tutor!!! My son has jumped to an A- in his honors Intro calculus class. He is a "Great Tutor".


Jim S. from Suisun City, CA

We hired Richard to help our fifteen year old son with Geometry. Richard was the perfect tutor for our son. Patient and persistent, always willing to go back and review a problem until understood. If our son was still unsure, Richard was able to provide a deeper explanation, always confirming the correct answer, and asking our son "Got it?" or "Okay?" before moving on. Richard was flexible with appointments and willing to devote the time needed for our son to make substantial progress in a short period of time. Though not his regular occupation, he is a great teacher and we consider ourselves lucky to have found him.


Beth C. from Vallejo, CA

After attempting and failing the math portion of the GED three times I turned to WyzAnt and was connected with Richard. He was able to meet my learning needs, was patient and flexible, and in turn helped me to pass the test!! Thank you SO much for helping me to be able to move forward in my career and future!! I am ever indebted to you!!


Neil M. from Travis Afb, CA

I had to take the ASVAB for the military after being out of high school for over 10 years. I struggled in math so I got help from Richard. He was very patient and extremely knowledgeable. He was always on time, and very patient and encouraging. I ended up passing my test by a mile! I highly recommend Richard to anyone struggling to get through a test or class.


Heather H. from Napa, CA

Thanks Richard!!! My son thoroughly enjoyed working with you. His test scores for his ASVAB testing greatly improved. Your help was appreciated. I will definitely utilize Richard's tutoring services again.


Andy L. from Benicia, CA

Richard was a wonderful tutor. He helped me a lot right before my finals. I was struggling in pre cal getting D's and F's on all my tests and I needed at least a C on the final to pass the class. Richard helped me through tons of worksheets and we reviewed for many hours. He was able to keep me focused and was very patient with me when I didn't understand something. He also taught me his own tricks including bringing his own notes for me. I ended up getting a B on the final with his help so it was a huge improvement. He saved my grade completely. Richard is a great tutor and I highly reccomend him.


Desire W. from Vallejo, CA

I am glad that me and my daughter chose Richard as the tutor. He is very patient and speaks softly. My daughter is very happy with her grade she went from an F to an high B. She stated "Mom he states it in a way that I understand the problem, he also makes me do the problems on my own." To me, by her understanding the problem, lets me know that her grades should improve and her confidence level is 100%. Thank you Richard


Shannon S. from Stockton, CA

Richard is an AMAZING tutor. I have some problems that make it difficult for me to grasp a concept but he is just so patient! Through him, I was able to learn so much, in just a short amount of time! My algebra grade will surely go up because of his help. Thank you so much Richard, hopefully we can schedule more sessions!


Lisa E. from Fairfield, CA

Richard is an excellent tutor, very patient, and professional. He makes sure my daughter understands the lesson and makes her feel comfortable. He is very easy to work with and we highly recommend Richard.


Christopher W. from Vallejo, CA

Richard is a good tutor very patient and easy to talk to. Since he hasn't used Calculus much in his present job, his skills are a bit rusty but after reading the books and watching the examples his skills are coming back. I look forward to working with him again.


Jennifer M. from Benicia, CA

My daughter has found Richard very helpful and her confusion has cleared up quickly. Her grades have also improved in calculus.


Pam F. from Vallejo, CA

We appreciate Richard's patience in working with our student. We also appreciate his flexibility in working around our student's schedule.
