Blue was amazing to work with. He has tons of experience and is truly eager to help and make sure you understand. Calculus was a very difficult class for me, but with Blue's help and enthusiasm, it truly paid off. I would recommend Blue to anyone.

Blue is the Man! I owe my productive semester to this man and his impeccable methods. Blue is kind and reinforced with his methods. He takes his time with you and make sure you understand the material. Blue made MATH 141 a breeze and is worth every penny. He helped me pass and I can confidently say he is the best tutor for the money. Don't waste your time and immediately book times with him to make sure you can do as well as possible in these challenging math classes at CSU.

Blue is an amazing tutor, I have never taken a math course above college algebra before going into business calculus (MTH 141). Blue is able to explain the concepts in a simple way that makes a lot of sense and his exam prep sessions are a tremendous help on the exams. He's the best i wouldn't have done nearly as well in the class without him.

A single session with Blue is like a week's worth of CSU calculus lecture. He is a Jedi Master of breaking down the steps and processes that most professors gloss over. His tips and tricks give you the essentials and the easiest path to the final answer, he taught me tricks on my graphing calculator that I had no idea how to use before. Blue will dedicate the session to whatever you want or caters to your course needs, but he has a great idea of what the course requires from his experience tutoring for years. His test review videos are also well worth tuning in to see examples in action. You're the man Blue!

I was really worried about taking math in college as I know it is something that I have never been great at. I tried to find people who could help me but I never found someone who explained it in a way that made sense. Then I found Blue, and the way he explains things is so easy to understand and it makes your life so much easier. I was able to pass my math class which a much better grade than I would have otherwise and he helped me understand it all the way through.

I was very much struggling in the MATH 117 here at CSU on Pace math. I was not able to even complete many of the required assignments. My mom found The Math Man on google and I knew I needed to reach out and get help. After 5 sessions with him working on MATH 117 I was able to achieve an A in the course. He is very helpful and I would recommend him to anyone that needs help, HE IS THE MAN TO GO TO!!

I returned to CSU this semester after a decade hiatus, and was struggling in my first PACE course. Luckily I had a friend refer me to Blue for tutoring. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the material, and knows exactly how to explain things in a simple yet concise manner. In addition to private tutoring, I also purchased a package of his online tutoring videos which were also effective and easy to understand. Thanks to Blue I was able to ace both of my PACE classes quickly, and completely stress free. I would recommend Blue's tutoring services to anyone, regardless of math proficiency. Best money I have ever spent!

At the beginning of the semester I was struggling with my PACe courses hard, I had to take my exams multiple times to actually pass and spend HOURS in the PACe center. After hearing amazing things about Blue I finally decided to go to him and he helped me enormously! I went from spending hours on PACe each week to meeting with him once a week for an hour to go over each unit. He save my PACe grades, and is a GREAT tutor, I highly recommended Blue!

Blue is awesome. He’s so helpful and makes math feel super simple. He’s very calm, nice, and patient. I had an F in Algebra but got an 87% on my first math exam after only a few sessions. Now I currently have an A in my math class because of tutoring. His online tutoring is legit, but meeting at CSU is very nice too. He’s very flexible with schedules, responsive, and can explain any math problem to you in a way that will make you grasp the concept! He will teach you little tips and tricks and even takes notes from the session for you that you get to keep!

Blue was such a great help with my calc class. He has a great knowledge of what you need to know to pass the tests, and explains all the concepts much better than you learn them in class. I wouldn't have passed without him!

Blue is a tremendous help. He explains the Calc concepts in such a simple and easy way. He also answers any questions you have over email which has been so helpful. I highly recommend going to him for any Math help you need.

Never had a tutor with such insight on a subject. His knowledge of the material, combined with his own understanding of what you "need to know" is unmatched. An hour with him equates to 2 weeks of CSU lecture. My only complaint was that I didn't contact him earlier. Give him your money and you WILL get an A in the course. THANKS BLUE!

I can't thank Blue enough for the last minute time and attention he gave my son with his Calculus class. My son has had some learning issues and we were down to the last week and a half before the final. We did the private tutoring as well as his group class for the final. My son ended up getting a MUCH higher grade than would have been possible. My son said he made it so clear, simple and easy to understand. Thank you, thank you, thank you BLUE! :)

Blue was born to teach. Im a student-vet who hadn't done any basic algebra or calculus for 5+ years prior to college math courses. Blue was able to get me completely back up to speed with my peers in only an hour a week!

I haven't went to tutoring previously before however I needed it for Calculus as I struggled with my 3rd Calc Test. I was very nervous for my final, as I did not want to repeat the course in the Summer. I decided to invest in myself by going to Blue. He's a great tutor, who is someone that can save you hours of studying. I highly recommend him, as I got my best score after going to him twice and watching his final video review. Blue is a big part in the reason I passed calculus!

My background in math was not strong, and when it came time to take MATH 160 at CSU, I knew I had to get a tutor if I was going to survive the class. I came across Blue, and his website and raving reviews automatically made it an easy decision for me to choose him. You'll be hard-pressed to find someone else with the same background and knowledge as Blue in this course, along with the extraordinary ability to teach complex concepts in a way that actually make sense.

He is the best! I never would have gotten through math 141 without him. I highly recommend using Blue if math is something you struggle with, his test reviews are worth every penny.

Blue is an amazing tutor! If you struggle with math, or pace specifically Blue is super easy to work with and communicates the material in a super helpful way. He is easily the best tutor I’ve ever had!

Blue makes math straight forward and simple. There’s no way I would have gotten through PACE as easy as I did without him! 100% best math tutor I’ve ever had.

Blue could do this math with his eyes closed & explains it in such a simple way. I finished 3 pace units in about 10 weeks which was so nice to get it all out of the way. 20/10 recommend

Blue Hovatter was recommended to us by a CSU department head. Students will find him focused on their understanding of the material so they can pass the exams. Blue is a skilled, experienced, professional tutor; the best our student has ever had.

SERIOUSLY!! These private sessions have saved me 20+ hours worth of work each. Well worth it, and he has great tricks up his sleeve to guide you to solve each type of problem.

I've successfully completed 3 pace courses with Blue, and I would have definitely not been able to pass them without his help. I highly recommend him!

I purchased the videos for Math 125 and 126. This man has an undeniable talent for simplifying math. His videos are concise and right to the point. Typically around 3 - 5 minutes per problem.He teaches you exactly what you need to know to pass the test and nothing more. I was able to learn an entire unit of material in a few hours. If you struggle in math then his videos will be worth every penny.I can give no review regarding his private tutoring, but if it is anything as helpful as his videos then I would say five stars.

Blue is amazing! He helps break everything down in a very understandable manner. Would highly recommend!

I met with Blue regularly during the semester I took Math 141 at CSU and I can confidently say I would not have done anywhere close to good in that class without the help that I received. He knows everything you will need for each test and can explain some topics in way that are a lot easier to understand than how you learned in class. I even managed to get 100% on one of my test which I had never done before and probably wouldn't have done without the help of Blue. I would highly recommend this tutor to anyone taking the classes he tutors for, its well worth the cost!

Blue is the best! I have learning disabilities that especially affect my math skills (or lack of) and he got me through 117, 118, and 124 in a semester. I got all A’s and that’s something I’ve never been able to achieve for math. I would reccomend him to anyone who needs help with math, he is by far the best tutor I’ve had.

Blue is the sole reason I got an A in Calculus. I am not a math person and I was so stressed going into Calculus knowing I needed a B to get into the business school. He teaches everything to a standard that is so easy to follow along. With him there was no need to even go to class. I highly recommend using him as a tutor. I promise the money is so worth it. I would be failing the class if I did not have him. Math has never been so easy for me when i had him . A guaranteed A or B if you use him.
