The tutors are great at explaining issues and problems that people like myself struggle with. I now enjoy math which allows me to understand and comprehend more clearly what is going on in class.
Alex was great and we are so grateful for his coming to my home on short notice last night great 2 hr session
My son went from a frustrated 9th grader getting D's on his math tests to straight A's for the next three years. He actually signed himself up for AP Calculus his senior year because he wanted to maintain his knowledge going into college.
Alex is an excellent tutor. My son was very enthusiastic about their session.
Jonathan helped [my son] so much and he is no longer in need of tutoring... You guys have been great
It was great, ready to book another appointment with Ingo whenever he's available!
I've met with multiple tutors at HPT over several semesters for help in trig, calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations. They saved me from failing a few times. I'm pleased with the useful and professional support I received.
We've used High Performance Tutoring for two subjects, Calc and Chem, and have been very happy. The most important thing was for our son to feel confident, and that's exactly what happened. He came home saying, 'Now I get it.' Highly recommend.
Tutoring with Ingo has been so helpful. He's helping me discover fundamentals I never learned, while showing me I know more than I thought. I appreciate how he breaks down each problem and helps me prepare for similar ones.
Ingo is incredible, and we are so grateful for all the hard work he does with our son. We feel so lucky to have him.
We've been very impressed with the methodical, detailed tutoring by Ingo. He's been working with our son on his SAT and ACT prep. Extremely pleased so far!
[Our son]'s grades are improving on tests, and he really likes Ingo, which is an added benefit! Great work, Ingo!
