I have had tutor Jay for four years. I had got quite improvement for my math from Arithmetic,
PreAlgebra,
Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra 2. He could explain the solution
from different viewpoints until I under-stood.
He not just help me in school home work assignment but also gave me
extra variation examples for me to work on,
which help me under-stand math thoroughly. Nate K., Freshman Mission San Jose High, Fremont, CA |

Jay has been tutoring me for the past 4 years and I highly
recommend him. For past years, I have been commuting from
San Francisco all the way to Cupertino. This should
represent how grateful I am to have tutor Jay’s excellent
teaching skills. He is very patient and teaches in a unique
way, allowing the students to approach challenge questions
in a variety of levels in science and math. He also helps
the student write excellent notes to refer to when he is not
available. But most importantly, tutor Jay has the passion
to teach students. He is an effective, commendable and great
teacher! Valerie V. Drew High School, San Francisco, CA |

tutor for PreCalculus and AP Calculus. He was very patient
and eager to help me understand concepts that I have trouble
with. He explained the concept and ideas clearly, and made
it easy for me to understand. Your dedication and help is

AP Calculus |

Jay has tutored me since 7th grade (Pre Algebra) to 12th
grade (Calculus). Jay presents the material in a very simple
and straight forward way. He is very helpful if you are
struggling in math but he can also challenge you to do
better and have a deeper understanding. By taking his class
not only did my grades drastically increase but my interest
in mathematics also grew. He is very qualified to teach this
class. He can identify your needs and struggles and will
help you until you completely understand the material. I
strongly recommend Jay as a tutor. Josh K. Mission San Jose, Fremont, CA |

I had Jay as a tutor for AP Calculus BC. He thought me math
in a way that my previous tutors did not, and it was very
helpful. He was also very easy to understand and explained
concepts in a clear fashion. Thank you for your help Jay Hari M. Homestead High School Sunnyvale, CA |

I had Jay as a tutor for AP Calculus AB. I had difficulty
throughout the year understanding the concepts, but
after just a few hours with Jay I was able to
understand the concepts exponentially better. Jay is
able to teach the concepts behind the problems in a
clear and patient way that made learning Calculus
enjoyable. I would highly recommend Jay as a tutor.

| Jay tutored me in AP
calculus. Jay does not simply drill the correct way to solve
a problem. but he also is able to understand and clarify
past misconceptions. He is also able to approach the same
problem in various ways so that he finds a teaching method
similar to that of your teacher. Besides the fact that he is
a great tutor, he is flexible with his time, and I have
never had problems scheduling an appointment with him before
any critical date such as a test. Tamara K. Senior at Harker School, San Jose, CA |

| Thanks for your help in
tutoring me. I was having difficulties in areas of Integral
in Calculus. I really didn't get the material at first, but
with your help, I understood everything and I felt confident
in it. The way you explain how stuff works is in a clear and
understandable manner. Thanks to you. Hao P. Senior at Lynbrook High, San Jose, CA |

I have been having a lot of trouble with Statistics, and was worried
that my grade would drop dramatically. But thanks to Jay, I
now understand all the material and I feel a lot better
about Statistics. He really knows the material and explains
it to me in various ways until I get it. He is also very
helpful with preparing me for the AP test. I would

Tutor Jay has assisted me in
accomplishing my statistics course. Without his broad
knowledge and ability to cater to my needs, it would have
been a difficult road to success. He is very outgoing,
attentive, unwearied, and motivated in what he does. He has
the aptitude to educate, enhance, and assist in
understanding the most complex equations to the simplest
form. His instruction is in depth and invaluable. J.P. DeVry University San Jose, CA |
| I am so fortunate
to have found Tutor Jay for tutoring me Statistics. He is an
excellent math tutor. Jay provides math instruction that is
well worth the time and money. Jay is extremely
knowledgeable and has an approach to teaching that is easy
to understand. He request the assignments ahead of time in
order to prepare for the tutoring session, which is very
efficient and beneficial. I highly recommend Jay as your
math tutor. Chris D. San Jose State University |

Getting through a PreCalculus course
has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to do,
and it's even harder when it is something that must be done
and cannot be simply put by the wayside. Before I had a tutor like Jay to work with, I went through two pre calc classes and struggled through them both. I would sometimes even spend hours staring at a half finished homework assignment stuck on a major concept and just hoping that the answer would magically pop into my head. Now when I have that same problem, I can be one hundred percent confident that if I schedule just a one hour meeting with Jay, I will learn exactly what I need to know and more. Jay is truly dedicated to all of his students and is committed to making sure you are not only going to improve your grade in the course, but he also works with you so that you understand the material and key math concepts enough to rely on and utilize your skills time and time again.

| I want to start out by saying that Jay
is an amazing tutor. He is not only a great teacher, he
cares about the final results. The reason why I contacted
Jay was that I had to take an electronics exam to be
considered for employment. When I received the study material I was absolutely
terrified, I knew nothing about any of this stuff. I
literally hadn’t done ANYTHING in electronics for nearly 20
years. I would have to say the difference between studying
on my own and studying with Jay was not even comparable, the
learning was accelerated immensely. Jay has a way of
simplifying the material to make it easier to grasp, he has
really gotten me excited about learning again. Well, I am
very happy to say that I did end up passing the exam and I
will be starting my new job on April 20, 2009. Kevin T. of Union City, CA |

| As a parent of Junior at Monta Vista High, I'd like to recommend Jay to be your math tutor. It's not easy to find a qualified AP Calculus tutor who can explain and solve the problems clearly and organized. Jay is a tutor who really knows the subject! Mary K. Cupertino, CA |
| I was looking for a math tutor for my
daughter before her final AP calculus AB exam. Her grade at
the time was B and I was looking for a teacher with great
math skills to examine my daughter's deficiencies to achieve
elevating her grade to A range. My daughter's teacher told
her that if she gets A in final exam, he will give her A-.
Jay understood Tamara's problems and he made her feel very
comfortable and confident. She did receive A- for her
semester grade. I thank Jay for this outcome. Mother of student from Harker School, Saratoga, CA |
