I have been performing in and producing theatrical shows since the age of six. In high school, I had the opportunity to run my town's non-profit theatre troupe as director/producer. I led casts and crews of 40+ for two summer musicals. Because of my experience in acting, directing, producing, and writing, I am capable to teach theatre arts on a variety of levels. Plus, it is a passion of mine.

We are very glad Adam can teach Julia in such a short time. We see improvements and she is very excited to have lessons with him.
Jeanne A. from West Hartford, CT
Adam is being very thorough with the subject matter for the SAT's. He challenges my daughter to review subject material which she most likely would not do on her own volition.
May C. from Glastonbury, CT
Adam is a wonderful tutor. He has been very flexible and patient with our schedule. He works hard to help my son understand the math work and we really appreciate it.
Wendy V. from Manchester, CT
Adam worked well with my daughter, who is 13 and having trouble in honors geometry. He was patient and explained it in such a way that she could understand it! Thanks, Adam.
Sheila D. from Manchester, CT
Adam tutored my son in math (college level). My son wasn't able to pass this class his first year and then he was tutored by Adam. I am proud to say my son not only passed, he got an A. I can't thank you enough Adam. This has given my son great confidence. He also really enjoyed working with Adam. We will definitely be using him for next school year! Great tutor!
Michele K. from Tolland, CT
First impression was great. Nice, knowledgeable young man with keen math skills and good teaching ability. He assessed my son's ability and provided insight into how he can improve his SAT math score. Hoping to increase by 100 points!
Elizabeth D. from Glastonbury, CT
Adam was a great tutor. I've used 3 from Wyzant, all great, but he was also so committed to get the kids' hours in because he had several other clients. Really appreciated his flexibility and commitment.
Kelly W. from Windsor, CT
5 stars. He's cool and very helpful, reported my 16 year old after the first session, without being prompted. We are very hopeful that Adam will help our daughter gain the skills and the confidence to be successful in Math. We are looking for a long term relationship with a tutor to help in SAT prep in the future. Good knowing he has a mix of skill sets to offer.
Melinda S. from Middletown, CT
This was my daughter's 3rd session with Adam. Her confidence and subject understanding is growing and that is a good thing. Adam has been punctual and flexible with scheduling. I am grateful he is able to help us. I look forward to seeing her math grade improve and see her able to tackle SATs in 2014 with more confidence.
David W. from West Hartford, CT
My name is David and I am an adult old student who has decided to return to the classroom after being absent for 20 yrs. One of my biggest regrets in life was not going to college, so when I decided to take the plunge, I was very nervous and I instantly knew that I would need extra help to feel comfortable around students that were not only half my age, but were used to the work that I was going to be challenged with. I went online and accidentally found the Wyzant website. I looked through the profiles of the tutors available and I instantly new that Adam was the one that would change my views on going back to school. Adam is one of the most patient, understanding,and down to earth guys I have ever met. I can honestly say that without Adams guidance, I would have never made it through this College Algebra class. There is at least 20 yrs. between the two of us, but that did not stop us from connecting and making the grades happen. I have a 90 in the class and that would never have happened without Adams patience and professionalism. I don't care if you are 10, 20 or 40. I am here to tell you that Adam is the only one you should choose for your tutoring needs. I am so grateful to you Adam....
Jodi J. from Middletown, CT
Adam has been wonderful! Our son took to him almost immediately. Adam maintains our son's focus, by making math fun! We are grateful to have found Adam. We look forward to seeing our son's success, and confidence build in math. Great job Adam!
Thomas W. from Manchester, CT
Adam is very thorough, with a very good sense of how much to push. It's great he understands that it's best to seek answers from the student instead of simply providing them. He is a good facilitator and approaches my son with a progressive balance of challenge and acknowledgement.
Michelle P. from Colchester, CT
Adam is teaching me pre-algebra, he makes it much simpler to understand, it's not confusing. I'm feeling more confident in my math abilities, makes learning easier.
Maggie B. from Bolton, CT
Adam was able to establish a good rapport with my son. He was patient and explained some problems he was struggling with in a way that my son understood. He is looking forward to working with Adam!
Kevin S. from Glastonbury, CT
Adam helped me understand more of the rules for vocabulary on the SAT. He also helped me learn some grammar rules that I was unaware of in the past.
Isha K. from Glastonbury, CT
Recently, Adam has been teaching me reading strategies to improve my sat reading score so I can do much better. The examples he explains to me is very clear and understanding.
Irina F. from South Glastonbury, CT
Adam recently started to tutor my son in Math (7th grade). He is very knowledgeable and patient. My son really enjoyed working with Adam. We are very hopeful that Adam will help our son gain the skills and the confidence to success in Math.
Karen P. from Newington, CT
Adam was very patient and packed a lot of studying and tutoring in just a few sessions. Matthew was much more confident going into the SAT. We will have the result in a week or so. We highly recommend him would call on him again.
Alicja C. from Newington, CT
Adam is a really good tutor and he taught me a lot, I am glad that I work with him! Highly recommended
