Simonette P. from Jacksonville, FL
Thomas was a very patient tutor. I was impressed by the extent of my creativity once he pushed me to talk about my ideas. We made great progress in only one session and we were able to review more than one assignment. I absolutely recommend Thomas as a tutor.
Clay L. from Neptune Beach , FL
Thomas took the time to go over 30+ legal cases with me. Showing me how to extract issues, facts, and holdings to use towards my paper. Highly recommend Thomas and if you have an opportunity to schedule a session with him, do it.

Thomas is incredible! Easily accessible, patient and reassuring! I foresee a long road ahead in my college education learning from his plethora of knowledge! I highly recommend him!
Umbwa M. from Beverly Hills, CA
Thomas helped me with my writing. He is easy to work with, and very good at what he does. I am very happy that I got in touch with him, and I will certainly get back to him for help in other subject areas. He reviewed and helped me revise my work, assisted me with organizing sources, formatting, and enhancing the structure of my work. I highly recommend him.
Jonah S. from Rohnert Park, CA
Knowledge, understanding, and to point of the law, analysis, and issues. How to approach an assignment, how to read law books, experience of taking a state bar exam, and understanding the stress of law school.

We worked on editing an important document for presentation. Thomas had good command and knowledge of the context we were working. He was flexible, unassuming, non judgmental and helpful. I look forward to working with him.
Madison R. from Littleton, CO
Thomas assisted me in revising a research paper for my english class. He read through it and made effective revisions, as well as added in useful information to support my subject. The paper looked much cleaner and organized after he was finished with it.
Abeer A. from San Francisco, CA
Very professional writer and creative. I'm very impressed with his work, his help and the constructive feedback he provided, he is very attentive to details, grammer and overall writing structure.
Donna G. from Los Angeles, CA
I was lost until I found Thomas! The work and knowledge he provides is beyond anything I could have dreamed of. I learned how to delicately synthesis difficult scientific data. I processed comparing and contrasting detailed studies, both qualitative and quantitative. Most importantly, when I was crunched for time Thomas delivered! They don't give Ivy League status to just anybody!
