EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION is at the heart of teaching. A deep knowledge of the subject matter must be there BUT if all you are is good in math you're not a teacher! I believe that teaching is about listening and observing how the learner is reacting to what is being said and adjusting your communication to their learning style.

I am a retired math teacher from the Rochester, New York area. I have taught at the middle school, high school and college level. I also taught student teachers how to ...

My son?s states that Phil HS been extremely helpful regarding his calculus studies and has given him alot of confidence. Phil has been very easy to work with and his tutoring style makes it easy for my son to learn.

Excellent! Made my son feel comfortable. Seems very knowledgeable. Will be having more lessons so my son is back on track. He is very flexible with the times and will come to you.

Phillip is an amazing tutor. He has a gift to get the student to understand the information. In the sessions he?s had with my son for precalculus, I already see an improvement. Highly recommend him to anyone.
- Thally C. from Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Philip and my son got off to a great start. My son said that he is able to identify his mistakes and is able to see and better comprehend the problem and with the techniques that he learned, just on this day alone, is going to help him moving forward. We highly recommend Philip and we believe that his individualized and structured approach will help any student.

I completed an online Calculus class with Philip. I could not have done it without his help. I?m highly recommend him! His availability was great with my schedule. Thank you, Philip.

Philip was able to accommodate us on short notice to help my daughter who is taking Pre-calc over the summer and was having difficulty with a topic. The lesson went well and my daughter thought he was very helpful!

Phil does a great job with my son. He is knowledgeable, engaging, and seems truly invested in how my son is doing. My son?s confidence in geometry has greatly improved since meeting Phil!

Phillip is an excellent teacher and a wonderful human being. My son has some learning difficulties and he teaches him knowing that not all kids learn things the same way. My son is fully engaged when he is learning with Him. We absolutely Love Phillip!! My son says he has learned more from him than any teacher he has ever had. If every teacher was like him, all kids would love to learn. He is a special gift to his students. I highly recommend him.

Philip has been providing calculus tutoring for my son for several months. His knowledge and ability to teach are exceptional. However, what really stands out is Philip's ability to connect and engage with my son. I would highly recommend Philip.

My daughter was reluctant to do after school tutoring. With Philip's sense of humor, energy, and patience, she actually looks forward to her Algebra 1 tutoring! He knows when to hold back if he thinks my daughter has "information overload". A passionate teacher with the ability to really get through to the learner.
- Sunita T. from Delray Beach, FL
Lexi's first words to me were, "I learned!" Those words are priceless. Phillip is an excellent Tutor. Thank you very much for helping lexi!

My daughter felt at ease with him and she said he is a "math nut" , which means he good!

Middle School Honors Algebra and Honors Geometry are tough, even for the best students. The challenge is often compounded by teachers who have difficulty in three key areas: (1) explaining concepts to students;, (2) teaching students how to "think"; and (3) properly preparing students for tests and FSA exams. Phil excels in all three areas. My daughter was struggling with Honors Algebra during the second semester of 7th grade. We tried three different tutors who were adequate enough to get her through the rest of the year. When the 8th Grade school year rolled around, however, we got smarter. My daughter began working with Phil from Day 1 in Honors Geometry. What a difference! Phil has the ability to relate to students. He built an outstanding rapport with my daughter through communication, trust, respect, and humor. Phil not only took the time to get to know my daughter, but he also bonded with me, my wife, and the rest of my family. My daughter worked with Phil the entire school year and made straight A's in Honors Geometry. Phil not only went over concepts with her but, more importantly, gave her the tools and guidance she needed to be able to "think" on her own and properly approach problem-solving. My daughter was actually able to apply many of these same strategies in her other classes. Phil is extremely patient, has a great sense of humor, and is a true people person. My daughter looks forward to each session with him. Phil is also readily available for special sessions and extra preparation prior to tests and exams. I am thrilled to have Phil as my daughter's tutor and give him my highest recommendation. He really gets it!

My daughter has been with other tutors but Philip has been the most effective getting her grade up from a C to an A. She takes algebra 1 in 7th grade and it's very fast paced. He fills in all the gaps. He makes her confident and encourages her to take the challenge. I hope he will continue to take her through high school !!!
- Helga A. from Boynton Beach, FL
This is the best tutor by all means. He is patient and knows how to interact with students. I was being tutored by someone else for college calculus. When they could no longer accommodate me, I reached out to Mr. P who took the time to look over all my classwork and test. Needless to say, the next three tests including my final were all A's! This tutor ROCKS!
- Adrianna S. from West Palm Beach, FL
He is a wonderful tutor who knows how to get the student to learn the subject. We highly recommend him.
- Cindy D. from West Palm Beach, FL
I highly recommend Mr. Philip! He is an excellent tutor, teacher, and overall great mathematician. He has been helping my 17 year old daughter deal with her math phobias and helping her become an excellent math student. Thank you, Mr. Philip.
- Maria C. from Delray Beach, FL
In two sessions Phil has helped bring back my daughter's confidence, and actually given her more insight to geometry than she had. He is extremely personable and my daughter feels very comfortable. He is very knowledgeable in the subject matter. We're very happy.

My son was struggling in Honors Algebra II. He informed me 2 days prior to an exam he was about to take that he had no idea how to do the work and needed help. I spoke with a friend at work who told me about this site, so I went on line and after an hour or so decided to give it a try. I researched the tutors in our area and that's when I came across Mr. Philip P. Even though there wasn't much time, Mr. P. was accommodating in squeezing in my son the night before his exam. Mr. P. spent two hours with my son and the results were amazing, my son scored a 94.0 on his exam, boosting his overall grade point average. Mr. Parisi is not a tutor, he's a teacher! This was the best money I've spent in a long time. Thank you Mr. Parisi for all of your help!!!
