“Our son was behind on many math topics in 12G IB AI HL math as for a few months he had decided he was going to go ahead with AP’s instead. When he then decided to pursue the IB, he had missed a lot of the explanations. He started lessons with Edward and within a couple of months he ended up getting the outstanding results of a 7 (paper 1), 6 (paper 2) and & (paper 3) on the IB AI HL math of May 2025. Not only was it a success academically but he genuinely enjoyed his lessons with Edward. A very intelligent tutor who not only explained very well and at the perfect speed but also made the lessons very engaging. He was also able to identify the gap areas. Always reliable, in a good mood and with a good sense of humour as well.”

“Edward was an outstanding tutor for my GMAT issues with the quant section. He came prepared for every session with a lesson plan and focus areas for me to study. I had two weeks to improve my score from a 71 out of 90, and within that span of time, I had improved to an 83 thanks to Edward's consistent help with whatever question types I needed support on. I would highly, highly recommend him for anyone looking to quickly improve their math skills!”

“Edward is, without question, a five‑star tutor and has been a game‑changer for my daughter’s confidence and performance in math. Over the course of just three months of pre‑calculus tutoring with him, she raised her grade from a C‑ to a solid A, with her exam and quiz scores increasing week after week. She capped the term by earning a 100% on her final exam, something she—and we—never imagined would be possible at the start. Edward has a real gift for teaching in a way that makes pre‑calculus concepts feel clear, manageable, and easy to use under exam pressure. He breaks down difficult topics into smaller, digestible pieces, explains why the methods work, and then shows how to apply them step‑by‑step to the kinds of problems she sees in class. The practice tests and study materials he provides are outstanding and align closely with what she encounters at school, which made her feel extremely prepared walking into every quiz and exam. From a parent’s perspective, Edward is professional, reliable, and very tuned in to the student in front of him. He listens carefully when my daughter describes where she’s getting stuck, adjusts his explanations, and is patient without ever being condescending. The transformation in her attitude toward math—going from dread to genuine pride, and from borderline passing to scoring 100%—is something I directly credit to his teaching and the thoughtful, structured practice he builds into his sessions. I recommend Edward wholeheartedly to any family looking for a truly effective pre‑calculus (or broader math) tutor. If your student is struggling or just not reaching their potential, Edward is exactly the kind of instructor who can turn things around and build lasting understanding, not just short‑term memorization. Five stars, without hesitation.”

“Thanks to Edward, my daughter , a junior in high school scored 1500 in SAT and a 5 in AP CALC. He helped her identify topics where she needed help and was very thorough and patient in his approach.”

“Edward is currently tutoring my son in IB Math. The improvement that has been made has been incredible. My son says that Edward is very adaptable & understanding with being able to figure out how a person learns and retains the information. His knowledge, attitude and personality make the sessions a breeze. Not only is Edward extremely knowledgeable, he is also great with communication, checking in on the student and suggesting ways for them to independently study that suit their needs. We are so thankful to have found such an amazing tutor and wish we had started with Edward sooner!!! Seriously, do not hesitate- book a session!!!”

“Ed has been a wonderful tutor for our child and has really helped with their grasp of the sometimes challenging material in this course. Ed clearly has a lot of experience with the course content and does an excellent job of explaining the concepts to students. We're so glad we found him!”

“Mr. Edward improved her grade in IB HL maths from a B to an A in only a few weeks of classes. For example, he taped a video of solving a maths problem my daughter asked because that was in between the scheduled classes. And he has been very responsive to my daughter between class questions. He is also easy to communicate with and has been very flexible to accommodate our scheduling conflicts. Update: The recap of each lesson afterwards is really helpful! Update: She looked happy after the session (instead of looking tired) because she was able to understand the concept and fell how helpful it was, that said a lot about the teacher!”

“As someone who was a bit daunted by how broad the GRE quant section was, Edward made everything seem simple and approachable. He thoughtfully planned out our lessons and communicated very effectively. I never felt overwhelmed and even enjoyed learning math after a bit (never before been the case)! After just a few sessions, my GRE quant score bumped up 4 points, getting my my goal score. Would absolutely recommend.”

“Mr. K has far surpassed all expectations I had for Math tutoring in every one of our sessions. Not only is he highly organized, efficient and communicative, his ability to simplify complex mathematical concepts visually and verbally has transformed the way I understand the connections between all my mathematical topics. He helped me prepare for my SL AI Final IB Exam (standard level applications and interpretations) by organizing review sessions for my weaker areas and helping me delve deeper into my conceptual understanding of stronger areas as well. What I like most about working with him is that he pushes you to internalize what's being covered in every session through constant repetition and practice. I truly leave each session feeling like I've achieved something. With that said, I've worked with a lot of different math tutors over the years and I can confidently say that Mr. K embodies a professionalism not easily found nor replicated. And for my fellow IB students out there, if you are looking for a tutor who is knowledgeable about the final exams, he is a perfect option!”

“I have the pleasure of working with Edward for my GRE quantitative preparation, and I can confidently say it was one of the best decisions I made in my test prep journey. From our first session, I knew I was in capable hands. Edward possesses a remarkable ability to break down complex mathematical concepts into easily digestible chunks. What I appreciated most was his tailored approach to teaching. Instead of employing a one-size-fits-all methodology, he took the time to understand my strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. This personalized approach not only boosted my understanding of the material but also increased my confidence in tackling GRE quantitative problems. Furthermore, Edward's enthusiasm for mathematics is contagious, and his patience knows no bounds. No matter how many times I stumbled over a concept or made mistakes, he remained patient and supportive, providing encouragement every step of the way. In conclusion, if you're seeking a GRE quant tutor (or tutor for GMAT etc) who is not only knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in your success, I can wholeheartedly recommend Edward. With his expertise, dedication, and unwavering support, he will undoubtedly help you reach your goals. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”

“Edward helped my daughter so much with her IB math internal assessment. Going into the lesson, my daughter didn't have a clear understanding of what was expected from the IA. Having taught IB classes in the past, he was familiar with the criteria and was able to give great suggestions that helped her gain focus, direction and organization. He also helped her determine which mathematic applications would work best to achieve her goal. Excellent tutor. Thank you Edward!”

“My twins studied with Edward. They are in IB HL math, and fairly strong students overall. It has been hard to convince them to take help from anyone. We tried Edward and they both found him very helpful and knowledgeable. We have him once a week live and additionally as needed. He’s professional and engaging. He’s also been flexible with in person and online as well as times of day /week. My kids are pleased and we’d happily provide details and referrals if needed.”

“Ed was great at describing hard concepts in simple terms and wasn’t afraid to take the time to identify exactly what I needed to unlock my potential. His upbeat and encouraging demeanor made me feel safe to ask any type of question and the problem sets that he assigned were curated based on what I needed to learn. Overall, I left our session feeling like I had a tangible plan to reach my goal and a great guide to help me get there. Thanks, Ed!!!”
