Pre-Calculus With genuine time and effort the class is easily tolerable and very much an informative and helpful one to take.

Tom Oster is by a long shot the best teacher I have ever had. Every day he begins class with a smile on his face and a peppy attitude to help students through the day. To say he is a workhorse is an understatement. I don't know any other teacher that walks to school at four in the morning so they can get work done in the morning as well as help struggling students. His lecture/teaching style is one of the my refined and best in the world of education. Tom Oster was the most helpful man I have ever had the privilege of calling my teacher.
