I absolutely love helping students succeed, and have been involved in the field of education since the late 1990s. I am an expert on local history, and have experience working for an educational publishing company, where I worked in the field of research and fact-checking. I have contributed to many U. S. and World History texts, and have my own published works as well. I taught Advanced Placement European History and APUSH for many years, and enjoyed extremely high pass rates throughout t...

Will try the suggestions he gave. Hoping to schedule another lesson. APUSH is super hard and he seemed to really know what he was talking about. He had a friendly demeanor and listened well as well.

He reviewed the chapters I missed when I was out sick. My teacher's lecture notes or Power Point presentation was too general. Adam explained in detail what happened.

Adam worked extremely well with my son; they connected right away and had a very positive tutoring session. Adam assessed my son's needs and tailored the session around them. He is extremely knowledgeable in great test-taking strategies, tips, and suggestions, and he communicated well with both myself and my son. My son has a great new sense of confidence going into his SAT exam.

Adam has been working with my daughter for the last month on prepping for the ACT. She loves her lessons and is progressing quickly through practice tests, when she comes across problems she doesn?t understand her and Adam work through them which builds her knowledge and also her confidence. So far we are extremely satisfied with our sessions.
- Camille L. from Bartlett, IL
My daughter wanted more in depth review for the SAT and ACT math sections to ensure acceptance into the College of Engineering. Adam is very knowledgeable and showing her short cuts and quick tricks. He is very fluent in the tests and type of questions that trip up people. She has enjoyed working with Adam and we are looking forward to see the results once she retakes the SAT and ACT test. Highly recommend Adam.

Adam really helped me with the Math portion of the GRE by showing me some great tricks and breaking the problems down to make it seem so easy. I haven't had a formal math class in over 10 years and he really helped me to review and gain confidence for my test!!
- June Y. from Oswego, IL
We were hoping to find a tutor/teacher who could help a good student who needed help in focused areas. Adam was able to quickly identify that and make quick progress were needed. He was also able to quickly make my daughter (and my wife) feel comfortable with our choice. We would give him the highest of recommendations.
- Mark M. from Saint Charles, IL
Warmly recommend Adam. My daughter has ADHD and some working memory impairments. He was both calm, methodical and very patient. Explained geometry for my daughter in a way that made sense to her and they made age headway in getting caught up in math and raising her grades. Wish I would have done this months ago.
- Anna S. from Saint Charles, IL
Very helpful in techniques and lessons. Teaches different methods to succeed in taking ACT. Teaches a way to understand all sections of ACT and I am feeling very confident for future test date.
- Nicole J. from Saint Charles, IL
My son met with Adam for SAT prep help. Adam came prepared with math work. My son came away from their first meeting very happy that he had "learned something"! He is looking forward to their next session, which is a win in itself.
- Tracy Z. from Elgin, IL
I had my first session with Adam today over piece wise functions and range/domains. I was struggling with this topic and needed help. Adam is AWESOME! Wonderful personality!! Not only is he a GREAT teacher, very knowledgeable and made sure that I understood the material, but he also took the time to get to know me. I would definitely recommend him to others!!!

My daughter and I met with Adam and instantly felt that he was the correct fit for her tutoring needs. He makes a personal connection with his students and brings that into his teaching style. He creates both a relaxing and positive environment to the session which Is very beneficial. We would highly recommend Adam for your tutoring needs.
- Andrea B. from Geneva, IL
Mr Adam certainly widened my knowledge and taught me new ways to do even the easiest math problems. He also helped me remember how to do math problems which I had not done in a while. Overall, he knows a lot about a variety of topics and is very pleasant to work with.
- Natalia M. from Batavia, IL
Adam worked with me on high school geometry. He explained things thoroughly. He made things easy to understand. He took the time to re-explain something I din't get the first time. I hope to work with him more to raise my grade.
- Renee O. from Saint Charles, IL
Adam reviewed my daughter's essays and provided excellent recommendations. He was very professional and made a positive impact to my daughter. We look forward to working with him again in the future.

Adam has had several sessions with my daughter and has made great progress. They are working toward the ACT test in September in hopes of raising her initial score. I feel like they get to work and utilize every minute of the 2 hour session. Adam has been flexible in selecting dates and times that work for both of them.
- Natalie K. from Saint Charles, IL
I've been going to Adam for ACT Tutoring for about 3 weeks and I actually enjoy going! Adam shows different ways to approach problems on all the subjects of the ACT that really makes a difference in ones score. I definitely recommend contacting Adam for tutoring lessons!

Adam G. is a fantastic tutor! Arrived on time and got straight to work. Ridiculous smart and really helped make problems that looked complicated on the GRE easy to understand and digested. Best GRE tutor on WyzAnt!
