What students say
"It kind of felt like hanging out with a friend, except that friend is much smarter and knowledgeable at the subject. Shay has a unique ability to pinpoint where someone is having a difficult time and fully explain it. I never felt dumb for not understanding something — he'd go over it again and again until I fully understood."
