Shanay is an exceptional tutor who truly goes above and beyond for his students. My son struggled with chemistry and math, but Shanay made the subjects so much more accessible and enjoyable. His ability to break down complex concepts and explain them in simple terms was a game-changer. With his help, my son not only improved his grades but also developed a genuine interest in STEM. I highly recommend Shanay to anyone seeking a dedicated, patient, and skilled tutor!
Shanay helped me prepare for the ACT, and I’m thrilled with the results! I had struggled with test anxiety, but his personalized approach made all the difference. He focused on my weak points, provided valuable strategies, and built my confidence with each session. Thanks to Shanay, I scored 4 points higher than my previous practice tests, and I felt calm and prepared on test day. I couldn't have asked for a better tutor!
