Ethan was very knowledgeable about the subject matter that we covered & communicated it in a clear & concise manor. He sent me labs to work on before we meet again.
Ethan is very thorough and patient. He clearly has the knowledge of what he’s teaching-Science & Math. I am looking forward to working with him further! Thank you.
