After starting out as an engineer, I now have 16 years of experience as a math, physics and electronics teacher and 7 years experience as a tutor. Here are five reasons that You might like to have me tutor you or your children. (1) First of all, I know the material very well and this helps me to simplify it for the student and make it easier to learn. I am also very aware of how to apply math and physics to everyday life. (2) I make the tutoring process interesting and pleasant and I a...

Dr. L is an excellent tutor. He is teaching calculus to my daughter. She scored 5 in her AP calculus AB exam last year. Now she is getting lessons in AP calculus BC. I am very happy with my daughter's performance and I will recommend Dr. L if you are looking for a math tutor. Thanks Dr. L for your help and support.

Larry is absolutely fabulous! Not only is he a wonderful person he is a terrific tutor. Larry and my son worked very diligently on strategy to prepare for the SAT Math 2. After that the SAT score came back with 770 points. We are extremely happy with the results and my son enjoyed working with Larry. We highly recommend Larry.

Dr. L. is proficient in helping students master the material that they are being tutored for. Dr. L. goes a step further and focuses on helping the student build the necessary skills to study, comprehend, and set goals to ensure their overall academic success.

This past semester I had Dr. L tutor for my Calculus I class. Dr. L was a great teacher who was extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter. Each lesson we went through the chapter that I was currently on in depth. He would start by giving an overview that really helped me to understand the concepts before delving into the specific work. Every section we worked through, Dr. L was able to simplify the concepts all from memory alone, which was very impressive. When it came to homework and projects, Dr. L was also extremely helpful. It seemed that he knew how to approach each problem from multiple angles. This was important in that it allowed me to fully understand every element of the subject. Now, after the semester, I can confidently say that I know calculus in its concepts and workings of the basic problems. I am very happy with my tutoring and would definitely go back to ask for further help in future courses. 2 Big Points -The price is phenomenal for a tutor of his abilities -He also drastically helped me with my big project for the semester Thanks Dr. L!

Larry knows how math is applied and has many years of real work experience using all math as an engineer. This makes him a great example to someone of a person who has works as a professional using his math skills. He is also very patient and very kind. Highly recommended.

Within 3 days of having contacted Mr. L., he was standing at my front door - ready to offer a helping hand on AP Physics B. Within our first two and a half hour session, not only did fluid mechanics, waves, and magnetism suddenly makes sense to me, but I was taught some valuable studying and note taking tips as well. Mr. L. truly knows what he's doing and he has a very effective way of passing that knowledge on to people who are willing to listen.

My experience with Larry has been great. He is punctual and always prepared for the session even when I'm not. He has made the information easier for me to understand. I give him two thumbs up!!!

Dr L is teaching my daughter and son Algebra and in only a few short lessons, they have developed a great deal of self confidence because of Dr L's ability to identify their areas of weakness and address those rather than plodding along teaching concepts that they have already mastered. I would highly recommend this tutor!
Dustin S. from Eustis, FL
I've been scared of math for a very long time now. I withdrew from intermediate algebra twice and my SAT math scores have expired. The only way for me to place into a new math class is by taking the College Placement Test in Mathematics. I decided to tutor with Dr. L and we went systematically through the review material provided by the college. If I didn't know how to answer a problem, he showed me how. If I knew how to solve a problem but there was a better way, he showed me how. He loves to teach and knows how to teach. I'm ready for my Placement Test and I wouldn't have gotten there without Dr. L.

My wife and I truly believe Dr. L.’s tutoring has been the reason our daughter has gone from a below average grade to a B in honors physics. In part because of the teaching style of her high school physics teacher, and our daughter's failure to adequately grasp the concepts being presented, she was falling further and further behind and we were quite concerned. Physics concepts never seemed to stick with her and no one concept could relate to the next. By Dr. L. explaining the concepts in more real-life scenarios, then showing her what to do, watching her do it and gently correcting her mistakes, she has been able raise her grade and gain more self-confidence in the class. My wife and I highly recommend Dr. L.

Larry is an excellent tutor and very patient. He is able to take complex subject's and break them down into simple understandable componets. Very flexibile meeting hours, great understanding of material, and truly has a special gift to teach. Without Larry my Physics class would still seem like another language, but he has been able to work through any questions I have and is willing to spend as much time as needed until the subject is understood.
Kerri Z. from Sanford, FL
We have never had the help of a tutor before and I was a little concerned...would the tutor be a good fit for my child? Would he/she be worth the money? Would they really make a difference? And Larry gave me the answers I was looking for--YES, YES, YES!!! My 14 year old son has struggled with Algebra for over a year. He had sought help through school tutoring programs, but to know avail. We have had only 3 sessions w/Larry and the difference in my son's grade is already apparent! Larry is extremely knowledgeable, patient and has a way of making Algebra make sense! :). I'd highly recommend his services to anyone! We will continue to use Larry's services for years to come.

I was very happy with the help that I received and I understood the material. I have never gotten higher than the minimum passing grade in math but I received an A this semester all due to the excellent tutoring I got from Dr. L. I would highly recommend anyone that needs math help Dr. L is the person to go to.
Karen D. from Debary, FL
Dr L is an excellent choice for Math. He is able to explain and perform the answer to the problems. Enjoyed his teaching speed. Dr. L is so knowledgeable in algebra, he can help to explain clearly the process. Also, makes the lesson easy to understand and does not waste any time for you.

Thank you for the quick response and the time you spent with our daughter with just one day notice, she felt more confident after you showed her some of the very foundations of what she has been working on for several months - most problems can be solved the same way . . . We will be scheduling additional time regularly!!
