James M. Wyzant

“I was very anxious about my final exam in Linear Algebra, as I had fallen behind the entire semester and struggled to grasp the concepts. James came to my rescue, and we had an incredibly productive and diligent session. His skillful teaching was evident! I left our session a transformed student, and after taking the exam, I felt confident in my performance because of him! If you ever need help with your studies, James is definitely the tutor to seek out—even if you're a whole semester behind with just one night to catch up. He has an exceptional command of math and patiently broke down the concepts for me, even when I asked him to explain how to solve a problem five times haha. Each time he explained it in a new way that helped me comprehend. It's safe to say that he is truly an outstanding tutor.”

— Mandy, 1 lesson with James

“I had explained to James that my extremely smart senior was behind on her college math course, and the stress of it was really too much. He said, no worries, I can help. He more than helped. After her first session she said, I forgot that I love math and I’m good at it. Don’t hesitate, hire him.”

“James tutored my son . He was having trouble understanding some concepts for Calc 1 for his mid terms James did a great job tutoring him . He clarified many concepts and made sure he was well prepared for the tests. He is a great tutor and would highly recommend him!”

“My son appreciates the way James is able to explain complex problems with great clarity and offers multiple layers of rationale. He finds James efficient, making very good use of their time together. James is friendly and earnest and eager to help, and my son sincerely enjoys meetings with him.”

— Andrea, 17 lessons with James

“My student felt shaky before a test and asked to meet with a tutor. James M. was a great choice - he patiently walked through sample problems, explaining the steps along the way. Over the course of the next few days before the test, my student practiced many more hours, using the concepts reviewed with James. The night before the test, my student once again felt confident in math. We will definitely contact James again if another review is needed!”

“Incredible tutor and “wicked smart” as my son said. Extremely knowledgeable and great at explaining concepts. Truly helped my son learn and understand his differential equations class and we couldn’t be more appreciative.”

— V, 5 lessons with James

“Prior to taking differential equations, I had not taken a core math class in approximately 2 years. James was able to help me better understand the fundamental concepts I was learning despite having lost some knowledge in between my extended gap in classes. James was always available when I needed, he responded quickly and, I felt like he always had a thorough understanding of any topic I asked. On top of this, he was able to help guide me to the answer rather than just giving it to me outright which helped me better understand the material. I highly recommend this tutor for people of any mathematical skill level.”

— Chance, 19 lessons with James

“My son felt hopeful and encouraged after his first session with James. He will continue to lean on James to help him through his calculus I & II and linear algebra courses at university. He especially liked how collaborative the session felt and how knowledgeable James is with the material! We found the right tutor for our son. What a blessing!”

— Lilly, 2 lessons with James

— Yanny, 146 lessons with James

“James helped my daughter prepare for her college calculus midterm. He was proactive about looking over her material before the lesson and making sure he was familiar with what she was specifically needing help. She couldn’t stop saying afterward how helpful his instruction was. How clearly he explained what she needed and how grateful she was that he posted the video of the lessons so that she could go back and focus on anything she needed to spend more time with. James made a difference for her. She’s already planning their reviews for the next exam coming up.”

— Erin, 6 lessons with James

“James helped my daughter in Calc 2, the most difficult semester of math at her school. She almost failed Calc 1, and did so much better with James' help. Not sure she would have done as well as she did without him. Excellent!!!”

— Stacy, 18 lessons with James

“I learned so much from James this past semester. We had regular sessions where he broke down complex material into terms I could understand. He really knows his stuff and is patient and professional tutor. I highly recommend him!”

— Claire, 11 lessons with James

“James taught me about the distributive property of multiplication and how that can be applied in linear algebra. I learned how to find the dot product of two unit vectors that are orthogonal. I also learned how to find the l2 norm for a vector. He broke down these concepts in a way that was easy to understand. Because of his tutoring, I aced a quiz that was previously struggling with.”

“James helped me to better understand the mathematical underpinnings of data science homework (specifically around calculus 3 and linear algebra). I found him to have an excellent grasp of these foundational concepts and he helped to both support my getting better understanding and to help to highlight learning opportunities for myself going forward. Beyond his stellar expertise, he verbalizes his intuition quite well and helps to match the speed at which I 'get' the concepts. Have really enjoyed working with James and plan on seeking him out in the future.”

— Mark, 9 lessons with James
