“I am new to the Wyzant platform but I have quickly learned it has some of the best teachers available in the country for specified subjects and student groups. Joseph stood out for many reasons but the biggest compliment I could give is how much my child has gleaned in just two sessions. He is thorough, kind and patient in his communication and wants your child to succeed. I am excited to see how his support expands our child’s development in Pre-Algebra/ Algebra concepts. We are eager to master the subject matter but understand it will take time and I am happy I have found the right fit for our needs to help us achieve this goal. Highly recommend Joseph B. Giving him 5 ⭐️ because of the positive changes I have already seen in my child after only two sessions. My child is in AP 6th Grade Math (Pre-Algebra / Algebra) Carnegie Math Curriculum.”

“As a university student, Joseph B. assisted me with a major algebraic review this summer in prepetition for my upcoming semester. As someone who has always struggled with math, Joseph not only explained concepts clearly but additionally showed multiple methods of tackling problems. I would highly recommend Joseph to someone seeking a patient and knowledgeable tutor.”
— Rosemary, 15 lessons with Joseph
“I had a fantastic experience with my tutor, who did an impressive job tackling the challenging subjects of both Calculus 1 and 2 simultaneously. Their patience and willingness to explain complex concepts in detail made a significant difference in my understanding. Even my most basic questions were met with thorough and insightful answers, which encouraged my learning. I genuinely appreciate their dedication and ability to simplify difficult material, making the learning process enjoyable. I highly recommend this tutor to anyone looking to enhance their calculus skills!”

— Amy, 22 lessons with Joseph
“Joe has been tutoring my daughter through numerous math classes throughout her middle and now high school career. From the start, he has displayed that his ability to understand how to relay the materials over to my child and have her implement the lesson is beyond compare. The way he instills confidence in my child for the subject matter is nothing short of amazing. 2023: This is a more up to date version of my previous review, as Mr. B has continued to help my child grow tremendously throughout the time the two of them have worked together. The amount of work Mr. B and my daughter have gone through in the last 6-7 years is just remarkable. He’s also been such an influential part of her college applications and preparations. We as a family can not thank him enough. He has been such a blessing. He teaches all levels of math from rudimentary basics of pre-algebra to the most difficult parts of calculus AB/BC, as well as helping with college interviews. Online classes, brick and mortar to Covid years and beyond.”
— Kim, 145 lessons with Joseph
“My daughter (10th Grade) started taking classes with Joseph to get help with Pre-calculus and she is very happy with it. She has completed 6-7 classes so far and she is highly appreciative of Joseph's teaching style and deep knowledge on the subject. I like the way Joseph provides commentary at the end of the each session so as a parent I know what is being taught and what is overall strategy. Joseph always recommends additional resources/practice tests etc. which really adds value. I would say he effectively conveys pre-calculus concepts and his teaching style promotes student engagement. Joseph is very flexible with class schedules and very quick to respond to any queries. I would definitely recommend him to others.”

Joseph earned our trust in guiding our daughter through advanced math study.”
— Zheng, 8 lessons with Joseph
“Joe is amazing! Very knowledgeable and patient. My son has been struggling with PreAP Algebra 2 all semester and we were trying to help him ourselves and with after school tutoring with his teacher-- all without much success. We found Joe's name the weekend before the last test so time was short but Joe went out of his way to rearrange his schedule to work with us. After his first session with Joe, my son told me that he learned more in that hour than in 12 weeks with his classroom teacher and that many of the pieces were falling into place. He made a big improvement on the test and did not have to retake it as he had on several previous ones. He had additional sessions and made an 82 on the semester midterm. I only wish we had found Joe sooner and the semester would have been a lot less”

“As a distance learner this year, my son struggled with his Algebra lessons and it was quickly becoming clear he wasn't going to make the grade. After researching tutors for several hours it was Joe to the rescue! Joe came right out to the house and sat next to my son as he did his lessons.

Joseph did 2 tutoring sessions with her and she ended up doing very well on her tests and picked up her grade in the class by 7 points! I have now hired him on a weekly basis to help my daughter so that she will not fall behind. He is very patient and really knows how to connect well with my daughter. I would highly recommend him!”
— Lisa, 22 lessons with Joseph
“My daughter was really struggling in Pre-AP Geometry. The tutoring offered by her school was not helping and she was in real danger of failing the grading period. With her test less than a week away, we contacted Joseph in a panic. We had called on a Wednesday and he squeezed her in on Friday. He made progress in that first hour. He was patient and encouraging. With her test on Monday, he offered to come again on Sunday to work with her. My daughter felt much more confident going into the test. Thanks to Joseph, she not only showed significant improvement on the test, she passed the grading period. We are truly grateful for Joseph's efforts and will not hesitate to contact him again should the need arise.”
— Christine, 33 lessons with Joseph
“Joseph was very easy to reach by phone and email, and was extremely knowledgeable in the subject of Pre-Calculus. He helped my son handily pass his Pre-Calculus Exam for acceleration. He was always well prepared for every session, and made my son zip through what usually is a tough subject to get through. His extensive understanding of the subject allowed him to clearly show my son how to work problems and understand Pre-Calculus concepts. He promptly provides reviews of each session via email, which let me know how my son was progressing. Joseph was definitely a great success with my son. I highly recommend him due to his organized planning and thorough knowledge of mathematics.”

Definitely I will be recommending Joe to anyone struggles with Math.”
— Sam, 9 lessons with Joseph
“What a great tutor so far! So I am currently taking business calculus 2 online (at UT) and I have basically decided after a few sessions that Mr. Joe is the right man to take me through this entire class. Needless to say I have a large amount of confidence in him. At the beginning of every session he has came extremely well prepared with obvious time spent before the session. As well as being extremely knowledgeable he is very patient and always willing to do whatever I want to go over. He truly has the students interests as his number one priority. Great guy I highly recommend him. (To give myself authority, I am a UT student and I have seen a good number of tutors. Mr. Joe is the best experience, by far, I have ever had with a tutor.)”
