fair enough, i don't suggest that these two audiences be mixed, going on what ive read it seems he has many classes, maybe he can have one for the not so smart. I'm assuming he teaches in a group environment, how much does he cost, i assume he would charge   alot less than one to one tutor.

If you are already a 45+ student, do you really need a tutor to get a 50?

^haha, making lame gay/homosexual jokes every lesson is not the best and stalling 15 minutes in and 10 minutes out is just a waste of money

Lets assume that is true... it still turns out to be $20 for approximately... 1 hr 40 minutes ish? WAY cheaper than all those other cocky tutors that charge $60 an hour.

jacks notes just shit on all others

Forget the economics of it, who is genuinely better? Wouldn't Dr. He's smaller class sizes mean a more conducive learning environment? LOL as well as his impeccable english.

And I am indifferent, as I have never actually had a class at Jack's.

I reckon its pretty subjective. It depends on the individual and their most effective ways of learning.

Some learn better by reading and going over things themselves, whilst others learn better when the work is taught to them.

Jacks is good because he makes hard questions seem easier, yes notes are good, but sometimes he goes too fast and too general, doesn't cover some aspects.

Dr. He sounds so pro! LOL

Whenever I go to Jacks (very rarely nowadays) it's never to learn, and I don't do anything with his notes =/ Jack is for funniness - he gave me a can of tuna when I asked him for free food. Dr. He on the other hand...I don't really concentrate and take notes (unless it's something interesting that's not in the textbook, like solving inflow/outflow differential equation problems where inflow volume does not equal outflow volume) but I like his questions.
