Ukana took the time to prepare assignments for me to confirm my understanding of the material, especially the material I found the most challenging. With his help, I found myself achieving grades I did not know I was capable of and improving extensively across all of my courses when implementing his study methods.

Joseph really helped me strengthen my problem solving skills for classes like biology and organic chemistry. He challenged me to really think about why an answer was correct and gave insightful tips on what professors typically test students on. He is a very knowledgeable and receptive tutor, and with his help I was able to get As in biology and organic chemistry.

Ukana was my tutor for 1st semester General Chemistry (CHEM2070) through the on-ramp program. Whenever he saw that I didn't understand, he would go through the material again slowly and create useful analogies which helped deepen my understanding. He was also very approachable and made asking questions easy which helped a lot as I was a freshman.

Joseph supported my daughter's academic growth through patient, step-by-step instruction and consistent practice. He effectively used modern learning platforms and adapted his teaching to her needs. I have no doubt that the foundation Joseph built can be attributed to my daughter's success in her IB curriculum.

Working with Ukana really helped me turn things around in my Biology course. Before I was struggling and feeling overwhelmed, but his consistent support helped me gain confidence and eventually finish the class with a high grade. His annotated slides helped break down complex topics in a more digestible way, especially for memorizing detailed concepts.

Joseph was incredibly patient and made complex chemistry concepts clear and intuitive. He never fed me answers but always guided me through my reasoning, asking probing questions. He helped me develop stronger study habits and effective problem-solving strategies that I continue to use. His tutoring truly transformed how I approach difficult subjects.

Ukana provided tutoring services for Biochemistry I which I was able to get an A in. He came prepared with material and was able to articulate it in a way that was easy to understand. It is evident that Ukana values teaching others and is able to connect with clients on a level that makes the sessions seamless and comfortable. I would recommend Ukana to anyone.

Joseph was an excellent tutor for my daughter while she was taking Algebra 1 & 2 in high school. He was knowledgeable of the material, always prepared, and made sure their time together was fun and productive. I highly recommend him!

I just recently started tutoring with JU STEM Academy for organic chemistry and have been really impressed so far! They are extremely knowledgeable and good at breaking down hard concepts and guiding me during practice problems without giving away answers. With JU STEM Academy's help I was able to score significantly higher on my midterm which I appreciate!
