Student Testimonials
"Despite my having to wake up before 5 a.m. each morning to attend each class because I’m in Hawaii, I thoroughly enjoyed taking the calculus course from the convenience of my home. To take the course from a prestigious university like Tufts and from an instructor as knowledgeable and helpful as Professor Samuel Gomez was one of the highlights of my summer!"
