Since I signed up on Wyzant in September of 2011, I have helped many students by providing over 2200 hours of tutoring/college advising. This puts me in the top 99% of all tutors listed on Wyzant, ever. I was excited to find this out through an email from Andrew Geant, Wyzant's former CEO. I want to break my own record by helping as many students achieve their goals as I can!

Christopher has been an excellent tutor for my son in his high school Spanish class. As a result of their work together, his skill set and confidence has grown exponentially over the past few months. We particularly like that Christopher is able to work with my son via Skype because it eliminates travel time and makes their tutoring sessions very efficient. Through Skype, they are able to share documents and practice written work on screen. It has been an excellent way to organize their tutoring sessions. We also appreciate that Christopher comes prepared with materials to work on in the areas that we highlight as areas of concern. He has terrific knowledge of the subject and related materials. He has been an outstanding tutor.

I found Christopher here on Wyzant because I was preparing to retake my TEAS to get accepted into a nursing program for spring I had taken it once on my own and struggled with the math section only scoring a 68%. I met with Christopher a few times and he was always very professional, punctual, and helpful. Thanks to my hard work and his great tutoring sessions I'm happy to say I passed the math portion of the exam with an 86.7% and I'm starting nursing school in spring! My only regret was the time it took me to write this review! Thank you so much, Chris!

Christopher has been the the only tutor that has truly cared about my son and his future. He has been much more than a tutor with an ability to understand problems his student might have. He has helped my son more than therapy has and has opened his eyes to the life's realities. If it wasn't for Christopher, my son would have given up and failed again. Looking forward to the future with Chris! UNBELIEVABLE tutor and human!

Christopher knows the AP Spanish exam very well. He has developed his own study guide and provided my daughter with effective techniques to succeed in the written and oral parts of the exam. He is enthusiastic, passionate about teaching, very reliable, and a great person. I am very happy I had the opportunity to meet him. I highly recommend him as a tutor.


Jeff B. from Fort Lauderdale, FL

We found Christopher while searching SSAT tutors for our 9-yr old. He made our entire family feel at ease within minutes of meeting for the first time. Our daughter has a history of being critical of piano teachers, dance instructors, and Spanish tutors - so I was thrilled when she approved him at the end of their first session. Christopher is very familiar with the SSAT, and he coached our daughter in the weeks leading up to the test. Her SSAT score is outstanding! It’s higher than I imagined. She was so excited about her score that she called Christopher right away to share the news!


Heather S. from Hollywood, FL

I hired Christopher to help my brother complete his GED. From the moment I spoke with Christopher on the phone, he accessed my brother's situation and was able to immediately create an action plan for his studies. Christopher was very patient and offered additional resources to assist during his tutoring. He was able to focus in on my brother's areas of weaknesses. Within a short period of time, my brother had the confidence and knowledge to comfortably sit his GED. I am proud to say today, that he passed and now can look forward to attending college! Thank you Christopher so much for your help!


Jason O. from Fort Lauderdale, FL

Christopher did the following things: #1 Responded to my e-mails quickly. #2 Showed up on-time and prepared to start. #3 Was friendly and polite, but got down to business helping my daughter. #4 Answered her questions and seemed to really take an interest in her success. I will definitely be utilizing him again for computers. He exceeded my expectations.


Lisa M. from Boca Raton, FL

Christopher came to us when the problem became an emergency--right before finals. He was patient and worked diligently to put our son back on the right track. Thank you!!!


Jeff M. from Fort Lauderdale, FL

So far Chris has been exceptionally helpful with my son's online schooling. Chris has set a strategic agenda for my son to follow in order to graduate before the deadline of the online school's program. Chris' tutoring with my son has also improved all of his grades, so far, have stayed at that level.


Sharlene P. from Fort Lauderdale, FL

Christopher has a calm and collective personality that helped my daughter feel relaxed. He is very patient and most of all knowledgeable... Christopher gave my daughter several new ways to study effectively with her Latin and Math... after assessing she was studying passively. We really lucked out having him as her tutors.


ANN M. from Fort Lauderdale, FL

We had our first meeting and he is very nice and truly cares and understands the goals you are trying to accomplish with your child. You can tell he enjoys what he does.


Karen N. from Los Angeles, CA

Christopher is helping my son navigate the SSAT test for admission to middle school. In one hour he summed him up, found his strengths and weaknesses and developed a game plan going forward to get him comfortable with the test and meet his goals. We were so impressed with Christopher that we are glad to have him in our arsenal for future needs as he makes the transition from elementary to middle.
