He guided my son to understand the work without telling him the answers. He asked questions that led my son to discover the answer for himself. George not only clearly demonstrated knowledge and mastery of the material, but was able to effectively teach. He was able to assess what my son already knew, and what he didn't know to use the tutoring sessions to best effect." --Tom, Parent "I've tried other tutors, but none of them were really effective. They would assume I knew the material or explain it in a way that was incomplete, making it hard to understand. George really knows his material, so he is able to figure out what I don't know already and communicate it to me so that I understand it." --Kate, Student
