Testimonials

Here are what just a few of our satisfied clients have to say:

“Jacob tutored my son with ADHD for a year in all of his subjects. Not only was he hard working and patient, but he built a strong rapport with my son and really cared about his success. I couldn't have asked for anything more!”

–Ann P., Rancho Santa Fe
Parent of Middle School Student

“Hiring Dan proved to be a decision of enduring benefit. He quickly established a strong rapport with Owen, based on respect, humor, and collegiality. Despite Owen’s protestations, Dan was able to motivate Owen, challenge him to work at a higher level, demonstrate pride in his work, and develop essential work habits. We asked Dan to devote particular attention to correcting Owen’s often disrespectful attitude toward teachers and administrators; Dan’s gentle but effective coaching resulted in a delightful transformation.

We were consistently impressed with how patient and focused Dan would remain while working with Owen. Dan was virtually imperturbable. Despite Owen’s provocations and efforts at distraction, Dan was flexible, creative, and persistent. He was immensely reliable and committed to our son’s achievement. ”

“I had a big Calculus test coming up and was having a lot of trouble grasping some of the key concepts involved. I only had two days left before the big test and my time was restricted to late nights. Jacob worked around my busy schedule and made the time to come over to my house in East County and help me until he felt that I really understood the concepts and did not just memorize problems. I aced that calculus test when the average was a 56%. Since then I have never used another tutor.”

UCSD Mechanical Engineering Student

“I had already taken a course for the SAT but my score was still not competitive enough for the top tier universities. Jacob was able to really help me focus on improving specific weaknesses which were holding me back, and I was able to get the score I wanted.”
