Joseph was my biology tutor for a few months. I really enjoyed my classes with him, always trying his best to help me improve my knowledge on the matter. During these few months Joseph went on vacation; and he did his best to keep the lessons going (we had classes at 7:00am his time... and he was on holidays!) His priority is for his students to get to the exam date at his or her optimal performance. I really had a great time and learned a lot more than I was expecting.
