Reviews from others
“Dylan never made me feel like I was too stupid for the material. He never got upset, was always more than happy to walk me through the process even if he was repeating himself. I learned so much easier with his help and I simply cannot recommend him highly enough.”
Sean
“Dylan has an impressive resume but when it comes to the lessons it is evident that he is an expert at teaching this subject. His knowledge of financial management really impressed upon me that he has mastered the subject. He has an easygoing way if teaching yet driven to cover the items within the given timeframe without the feeling that he’s pushing you beyond your own understanding of what’s been discussed. He clarifies difficult to understand theory in a way that you grasp it quicker and follows through with an example. I learn and grasp theory when it is explained by everyday examples which also helps me remember better in preparing for exams. Dylan understands my needs and incorporates this into his teaching methods effortlessly. ”
Nicolette
“Right from the start, Dylan went the extra mile with Ethan, by understanding his needs and intentions before the first lesson. Dylan also prepared in advance for the lessons and gave Ethan a little extra work to consolidate his understanding. It’s very clear that Dylan takes his tutoring seriously or professionally, and is committed to helping his students achieve their very best. My son also finds Dylan to be very helpful and approachable. He felt comfortable with Dylan from the very first lesson. Anyone can call themselves a teacher, but not everyone can teach. So we are very grateful to have found Dylan to assist us in supporting and encouraging Ethan.”
Paul
“Dylan made the subject a millions times more understandable in such a short time. I really don't know what I would have done without his help. My confidence is so much better and I appreciate Dylan's efforts in helping me. ”
Sam
“he’s a very patient person, no matter how many mistakes i make, he is always willing to show me where i went wrong and helps me understand each sum/equation i do ”
