Scott is an excellent teacher! He is very knowledgeable, patient, and very intelligent! He was extremely helpful, punctual, and prepared for our lessons. I found him to be very accessible for questions, and he explained the subject well so it was easy to understand. You will see great results. I highly recommend him!

Scott did an outstanding job tutoring my son Yoni. He's patient and definitely knows his stuff. The way I could tell is because I couldn't understand a word of what Scott said, but Yoni understood it all which is what counts. We'll definitely have Scott over again and again. Great job Scott.
- Jerome W. from Los Angeles, CA
Scott was punctual and organized. He has a no-nonsense attitude which works for my kid. We had a tutor through wyzant in the past who was awful so we are happy to have found one who seems to be a much better fit.

Scott is an excellent AP Chemistry tutor. He went over all previous AP exams with my son and prepared him for his AP exam. Scott will be tutoring my son again for SAT 2 subject test.

Scott is professional and knows how to get students to understand tougher subjects like APES. Our son appreciates him and so do we.
- Eve B. from Los Angeles, CA
Excellent job teaching my daughter about electromagnetism and other fundamentals of physics. They will be meeting together on a regular basis through the semester. Scott is patient, skillful and very reliable.
- Peter J. from Studio City, CA
The scope of Scott?s knowledge was impressive. He was able to explain concepts in a clear and concise manner. We went over Physics, Chemistry and even a bit of Biology. I am very grateful for his help.

Scott W. is very knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He works around your schedule. He encourage questions to check understanding and introduces different techniques to solve complex topics. He has helped my son improve his learning of Latin.

Scott helped my daughter understand her college level astronomy! She felt so much better after her lesson with Scott! She said he was a great tutor and am sure she will work with him again.

Scott worked with my daughter on the ISEE and worked with me in advance on a schedule. Showed up exactly on time and on the second session brought flash cards for my daughter to practice. Thanks Scott.
- Randall G. from Ketchum, ID
Scott was so calm and relaxed in his approach with my son. But at the same time met specific goals towards our shared planned agenda. My son really enjoyed his last session and felt so confident and encouraged as a result. Scott has been excellent so far!

I hired Mr Scott's tuturing services while my child was earning a "C" in his high school physics class, after ~ 4 months of tuturing by Mr Scott W and getting highly paid, my child's final grade instead of improving, dropped to "F". Myself being a senior engineering prof at local universities, made numerous requests, advises and technical recommendations, but unfortunately didn't implement apropreately. I think Mr Scott W failed to help my child to succeed, and does not get a passing grade from me in physics. I do not recommend him for tuturing "physics" at all.

I worked with Scott for 2 weeks before taking the GRE for the second time. My goal was to boost my math score and I knew that it would be hard with such little time. He was very patient with me and was able to explain concepts to me in multiple ways until I understood. You can tell from the first session how smart he is and it really builds your confidence in him when he breaks down complicated issues for you. My math score improved so much that I am keeping my score! I would definitely recommend working with him.
- Rachelle M. from Los Angeles, CA
With Scott?s support, I learned arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and basic statistics for the GRE. After being away from math class for seven years, I quickly prepared for the GRE?s quantitative reasoning in six sessions with Scott. His teaching is highly effective and results oriented. As someone who dreaded math class in high school, I can now say, ?I like math.? Thank you Scott!
- Asia M. from Los Angeles, CA
The tutoring session with Scott helped me develop a study plan for the GRE. Scott knows the GRE and was able to give me clear advice to make my studying more efficient. He came prepared and was patient with my questions.
- Adam S. from Los Angeles, CA
Scott is very flexible and able to accommodate my daughter's need for sessions at various hours of the day. He's very thorough with the material and she has much more confidence and mastery of the Chemistry material now than before working with Scott. He has been a big help to her. Thank you Scott. Keep up the good work!

Scott is a great tutor! He was very patient and helped me to improve my GRE score significantly over a 2-month period.
