Maher is a gem… this is THE math tutor.
My grandson was struggling with math and in summer school to pass Algebra II. When Maher came, literally from the first two hour lesson, everything changed. Maher taught him not only math, but also how to stop when something doesn't make sense and simplify the problem. By the end of the summer, he was getting over a 90% on his exams. Maher is a gem of a tutor, and he has an honest work ethic. If you need someone to tutor your child in math, this is THE MATH TUTOR.
