Our daughter said that she learned more about US History from Tim than from her regular teacher. Tim was very conversational and explained history in a way that made it accessible for her. We noticed how confident she was about the subject after she started doing tutoring with Tim.

Tim tutored my son in AP World History. He taught the content in a way that my son remembered and found interesting. My son was struggling in this class and ended up raising his grade one grade level and scored a 3 on the AP World History exam.

He helped my son through a couple of Summer School online classes. My son felt encouraged, and this stimulated his overall interest in the subjects. Mr. Tim's rates were reasonable, and I feel this was money well spent. I would definitely recommend him and will use him again in the future if my sons have a need.

Mr Anderson helped my son with his online history/Az class this past summer session. He was amazing. My son loved him. They worked very well together and ended the class with a 98%: A!!! I would highly recommend him and we will be using him again for sure!

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Tim's exceptional tutoring abilities. My student needed support in Advanced Placement US History, and Tim came to our rescue with his unparalleled expertise and dedication. From the outset, it was clear that Tim's approach was not just about imparting knowledge but understanding the unique needs of my student. His empathetic nature shone through as he took the time to connect with my student on a personal level, instilling confidence and motivation where there was doubt. What truly set Tim apart was his ability to develop a customized tutorial program tailored to my student's learning style and pace. He didn't just follow a one-size-fits-all approach but rather crafted a program that addressed specific areas where my student needed support while capitalizing on my students' strengths. His content knowledge was nothing short of impressive, and he effortlessly navigated through complex historical topics, making them accessible and engaging. The results speak volumes. Thanks to Tim's individualized program and unwavering support, my student not only excelled in Advanced Placement U.S. History but also achieved success on the exam beyond our expectations. Tim's effective tutoring methodology proved invaluable, paving the way for my student's academic achievement and future success. In conclusion, Tim is more than just a tutor; he is a mentor, a guide, and a true educational advocate. I cannot recommend him highly enough for anyone seeking top-notch tutoring services. Thank you, Tim, for everything you've done for our family.
