Meet Our Berkeley Tutors
We fill gaps in math and reading now, so high school doesn't feel like an uphill climb.
Patient, encouraging tutors turn frustration into 'I can do this', the mindset that lasts.
Organization, time management, and how to study, habits that pay off for years.
After each session, your tutor writes feedback on what you covered and what to work on next.
My children have loved every tutor we have used from High Performance. The tutors have helped them excel in their studies in the classroom and helped them succeed on the AP, IB, ACT, and SAT exams!
Our daughter looks forward to her time with her tutor every week. He is a mentor, a friend, and goes the extra mile before tests to make sure she has everything she needs to feel competent and prepared.
My daughter Hannah raised her ACT score from a 26 to a 33 after completing an intensive twelve-week training program with High Performance Tutoring. This score will open up so many doors for her!
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.
You guys are absolutely the best. We literally think Ingo walks on water.
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.
It was great, ready to book another appointment with Ingo whenever he's available!
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.
My son goes into tutoring so defeated from school, thinking it won't help him. But as soon as his sessions end, he has this sign of relief and can't wait to see Eugene again next time.
Jonathan helped [my son] so much and he is no longer in need of tutoring... You guys have been great
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.
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.
