Testimonials
"Ilan was my favorite teacher. I chose to take three computer science classes with him (AP Computer Science Principles, AP Computer Science A, and IB Computer Science). We had great discussions about the field and I learned immensely. Thanks to him, I found my life's calling in computer science, which I now major in at a top US institution."
"Ilan was a great tutor who helped me understand and advance in my mathematics studies. Thanks to him, I was able to succeed on my high school mathematics exams, which helped me graduate and gain admission to a great university program. To this day, we are still in touch."
