What Parents & Students say:


“Mr. Porter is completely reliable, trustworthy, patient and communicates in a style that is respectful of the student. He tutored my daughter for a year in Chemistry and Advanced Algebra. During that time she progressed at least two grade levels and had dramatically improved her understanding and self-confidence in mastering these two subjects” 
–Parent of Chemistry and Adv. Algebra Student


 “Before the tutoring, concepts were just flying over my head. The tutoring clarified the concepts. You are easy to work with, can explain problems in multiple different ways, and helped to boost my confidence.” 
–Adv. Algebra Student


“You teach good problem solving skills, i.e. you write down all the steps!” 
–AP Physics Student
