Peter has been assisting our student, a senior in high school, with a review of the basics in math for nearly three months now. Our student loves his time with Peter who is patient and nonjudgmental when it comes to our student's struggles. Our student looks forward to his lessons with Peter and has come to look up to his tutor. We are grateful for his help and feedback.

Peter is very patient with our 5th grade son, Alex. In the 2 months he has been helping Alex, we can see that Alex is more confident in math and now looks forward to math rather than dreads it. Peter gives us great feedback on how Alex is doing and is very flexible with regards to scheduling.

It was great working with Peter! He was always prepared to review concepts using multiple methods to ensure comprehension and created a relaxed atmosphere for learning with his patience and humor. My daughter really felt confident that she knew the material for class and her improved test scores were evidence of the value of the tutoring sessions. So glad we worked with Peter!
