Our Students Say

This is an extremely honest review! I first met Shin when I was still in high school (now entering my last year of college), when I went to find tutors for calculus. Ever since I started lessons with him, I have never looked for another tutor. To put it simply, Shin is amazing! Even before the lesson begins, he asks for me to send him any (or all) of the questions I have ahead of time so he can make sure to answer them to the best of his ability and further clarify any remaining questions I may have during our lesson. He is extremely meticulous, polite, and also friendly. Shin also ensures that his students feel comfortable interacting with him and also dispels any sort of “awkwardness” a student might have when asking questions. He has been a fantastic tutor for both AP Calculus BC [and] Multivariate Calculus. Whether you are in need of a STEM tutor or also simply a peer-to-peer counselor, Shin will be there for you! I've also talked with him about concerns I have about school and my major and truly enjoyed my lessons with him XD You won't regret taking his lessons!
