Testimonials
Jakob K. from Joliet, IL We are blessed to have found James on WyzAnt. He is an excellent tutor and very patient at explaining the concepts. We are using him for ACT prep and can already see the confidence in my son's test taking during ACT practice tests. I know by the time the ACT is taken he will have the confidence to do well. We received our son's ACT test results today and because of all the work James did to help my son, he increased his ACT score from a 23 on the practice ACT to a 27 on the actual ACT. Preparing for round 2 of testing to see if second time does even better. English jumped from a 25 to a 30 and Math jumped from a 20 to 24.
Tristan B. from Boulder, CO Mr. S has tutored my autistic son since eighth grade. He is now in ninth grade, and I find that James is indispensable in that he is able not only to fully explain math concepts and coach a healthy interest in mathematics in my son but also because he is incredibly patient with his autistic outbursts and stubbornness. He never gets discouraged, negative, or irritable where as many other teacher and tutors often have. Instead, he is always empathetic and understanding. James S. seems to have a special ability to reach Tristan (my son) in a way that is invaluable to his educational progress. I can't say enough about this tutor. I highly recommend him to anyone, and I especially feel his abilities working with students, who have communication challenge, is particularly notable.
