“Isaac was an exceptional tutor. He was able to explain new concepts and review familiar ones in a clear and concise way. He taught specifically for my daughter's learning style, and did so with respect, compassion, and humor. He was flexible with scheduling and always there when she needed him. He also kept me informed and listened to my feedback as well. Issac was a perfect fit. My daughter has a much better understanding of physics now.”
