I am a nationally certified tutor and I currently teach and tutor at a local college in Columbus, Ohio.

I have been tutoring students in math (all levels), English (all levels), history (all levels), all social sciences (political science, sociology, philosophy, and psychology), English as a Second Language, and especially ACT (math, science reasoning, reading, English, and writing), and SAT (math and English) for more than 20 years by reducing learning anxiety and "simply getting the point ...

Very nice and smart teacher very helpful and I highly recommend him. He took the time to explain anything I asked of him. He was very easy to follow and made sure that I understood each topic and went over them again if I asked him to. I would definitely have him again as a tutor. I learned a lot more than I anticipated I would.

"Tommy" currently tutors both of our foster sons, both of whom have obstacles to overcome academically; within minutes of meeting the boys Tommy was able to both connect with each on a personal level and engage them in a way that made the subject matter interesting and exciting. We could not be happier with his approach, techniques, patience, empathy, and RESULTS!!! Kirby & Tom Reynoldsburg, OH

Helped him with the review of ACT and the tricks of interpreting the test. Will use Tom again for help with my younger son.

Tom did a wonderful job tutoring my son Zach for the ACT. He helped him to understand how too look at the question and understand what they are looking for. Plus so much more. My son has a better understanding now for looking at test questions. I would high recommend Tom for ACT tutoring.

My son never had to do much studying until he got to high school and found that he didn't really know how to study or how to do it efficiently. Tom has given him tips and strategies to help keep him focused on the task at hand. He has helped him tremendously in just the 3+ hours they have spent together. My son already seems more confident and proud of the work he is doing.

Tom is doing an amazing job tutoring my 3rd grade son. My son has issues focusing and staying on task. Often times he drifts off and Tom is very patient with him. He gets him back on track. He never makes my son feel bad for getting an answer wrong, so this has boosted his confidence tremendously. Tom tutored him all summer and my 3rd grader is having an awesome start to the year! I am very pleased and grateful for Tom's help!

Tom has done a great job at figuring out how to best connect and then communicate with our son to optimize his learning.

We have had a wonderful experience with Tommy G. Not only did my son enjoy his 2 hours sessions with Tommy (imagine that!), he really appreciated all of the knowledge and strategy tips Tommy was able to share. My son's score increased by 4 points and we couldn't be happier. My son had had a few sessions with other tutors and the big difference between Tommy and the others was that Tommy was able to give him tips and strategies that would give him the biggest bang for the buck when it came to the test. as apposed to a bunch of homework he had to bring home and read and do before the next session. For the most part, everything my son learned he learned within the two hour tutor sessions. He didn't have to come home and do more work, which would have been hard to find the time for and would have been like pulling teeth to get him to do on top of all of his regular school homework. We give Tommy G. and A+.

We are extremely fortunate to have Tom tutor our daughter. Tom's teaching method is fundamentally based on making kids think about real life applications of math and English concepts. This is something that is very difficult to observe in our current school systems.

My son wanted a higher score on his ACT. I didn't know anyone that could help. I started searching the web and came across the WyzAnt website. Then I began the task of searching for an instructor. I came across Tom's name, and I couldn't be happier with the results. My son understands the ACT "tricks" and is better prepared for retaking the ACT this weekend. He is more confident and relaxed. Tom is very punctual, professional, dependable and ethical. He is easily reached by phone and provided all materials. I would definitely recommend him to family and friends.

My daughter has benefited greatly by the tutor's in depth knowledge of the SAT test and teaching methods. She says she understands algebra better after 2 hours of tutoring than after 1 year of high school algebra!

Tom is awesome, my highschool son finds him very interesting and helpful. Tom presents information in an exciting way, focusing on real life and intergrating my sons interest into his learning style.
