    "A fount of knowledge" - Karen, Northport, NY on 2/24/15 Professor BAM is a terrific tutor. He's patient, soft spoken, and brought a wealth of knowledge to the table which enabled my daughter to connect the dots in the subject of Earth Science. I would highly recommend him!

    "Miracle Worker" Professor BAM was very patient with my son, and was able to teach him material that he found very difficult to learn in a traditional classroom. There was constant communication amongst the student, the parent, and the tutor which was a recipe for success. I highly recommend Bruce.

    From the moment we met Bruce, he was very organized and had an ability to grab the attention of our son before moving on to the next step. Our son felt comfortable with Bruce from day one and looks forward to seeing him for his weekly tutoring. We feel fortunate to have found Bruce and have him help our son reach his goal in writing. Thank you, Bruce!!
