Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the tutor.
Matt was recommended to me by a friend when I was trying to pass a very intensive three week summer statistics course. Not my strongest subject. I had never done virtual tutoring but Matt made it super easy and helped explain and demonstrate problems and concepts. I ended up with the impossible: an A+ in the class! Put in your work and Matt will help you, easy. He was also available at some later hours (I worked in a restaurant and typically needed very early or very late at that time), and flexible with scheduling.
