- DWDaniel WitkowskiJul 31, 20255.0I had an amazing experience working with Phil during my Math 160 course. Discrete mathematics is notoriously difficult, and Phil somehow found a way to make it digestible and straightforward. If I ever felt uneasy about a concept, Phil could see that and continued breaking it down until I got it. It's clear that Phil has a passion for math. Any question, easy or hard, was another learning experience and a rabbit hole for us to dive into. Spending a few extra minutes on a problem would always bring valuable insight into areas I had trouble identifying on my own. Phil would never make me feel bad for making mistakes. He is patient, friendly, and talented. Phil also offers a free consultation to discuss your needs and goals. Don't be afraid to give him a chance!
- KPKristen PrahlJul 12, 20255.0I highly recommend Phil for all math tutoring. Phil tutored my high school junior throughout AP Pre-Calculus. We found Phil to be approachable, kind, accepting, inclusive, and flexible as well as skilled in his field. He kindly set up a standing weekly appointment for tutoring, but was always willing to schedule extra appointments as needed. He was able to read my teen and their needs & anxieties each week while helping them break down the coursework and helping to fill in any background gaps in understanding. Phil helped my teen immensely through a daunting course. We can’t thank him enough!
- AAAvaMay 31, 20255.0Phil helped me a lot with math! He was an amazing tutor, and he pushed me to keep going even when I was struggling. There were many times I didn’t understand something, and he actually cared and explained how to do the problem and why we solved it that way, without just giving me the answer. Thank you so much for helping me Phil! :))

- OGOlivia GiordanoJan 14, 20215.0To whoever is looking for a math tutor, Phillip Grizzard is the person you want to contact. I began my tutoring journey with Phil at the start of my freshman year of college in the Fall of 2016. For my whole life, math was never my strong suit. I had no confidence in my skills when it came to math. It terrified me, but Phil was able to change that for me. I would see Phil for about 2-3 days a week from the start of freshman year until my senior year of college. 4 years. Now I know there are people out there who seek a math tutor who may have a better sense of math than I did. Some people may need help in a specific area, but mine was everything. I never knew where to begin, but Phil worked with me each tutoring session to learn the math content I was working on at the time. If I were stuck on a problem, he would explain step by step how to approach the problem and apply those skills to answer the question. Not only did Phil help me with my math courses, but he also helped me prepare for the ACT. I needed to boost my math score to stay on track for my major. The number of retakes I took for the ACT was endless. Because of Phil, I was able to increase my math score and pass. There were times where I would get frustrated and want to give up, but Phil made sure that I comprehended the information that was given to me. I recently graduated from Illinois State University on December 12th, 2020 majoring in elementary education. Before I could even graduate in December, I was required to pass the elementary education content exam to receive my teaching license. I continued to see Phil prepare for the math portion of this exam. I had to retake the test 5 times. Despite those fails, my math score was higher than I expected. Finally, on October 9th, 2020, my 5th retake, I passed my content exam and was able to graduate. My math score was incredible, and I owe it all the Phil. I lacked so much confidence in myself, and Phil helped me see that spark in me that I never knew I had. I never realized how far I've come up until now. Phil was just my math tutor at the start, but now I am happy to say that I can call Phil my friend.
