I would definitely use this tutor again for the following reasons: He was very knowledgeable on the subjects, took time to understand work one on one. He actually showed he cared and did not rush. He gave test anxiety advice which is one of my main problems besides the math issue. We plan to meet again for the math section and test anxiety help plus some English. Furthermore I plan to ask to keep Dr. Kurt on for long term for my math classes in my college courses after Dr.Kurt finishes helping me with my ASVAB.

Great tutor session! Dr. Kurt took time to break down each problem to where I understood everything. Perfect tutor, and I will be scheduling another appointment on Wednesday! Thanks Dr. Kurt!

I asked Dr. Kurt for help in my IB US History and he came through. His review was thorough and informative. He patiently answered each of the 70 questions on one of my reviews. I came away with an "excellent" essay on my test. Thanks Dr. Kurt !

Dr. Kurt helped me out with the math section of the asvab and ways to eliminate some answer faster methods in solving them

Dr. Kurt works with my son on reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. My son is very antsy and Dr. Kurt is very patient and gets through the material I provide for him to work on.

Dr Kurt met with my son to work on Modern European History. My son said that it was a great session. He said Dr Kurt explained the lesson in a way that he understood which is exactly what we were looking for. He also said that he is very intelligent and he enjoyed learning with him.
