​​​​Testimonials from a sample of Aidan's past tutoring clients:
"We sent out a general inquiry for a Math tutor for our 8th grader after she got her first term Algebra grade. At that point my daughter surrendered to the idea of a private tutor. From the minute Aidan sat down with her, it was clear that Aidan was the best tutor we had ever hired. He immediately understood my daughter's strengths and weaknesses. He was patient and so skilled that he can change the way he teaches a concept to adjust to the student without causing any confusion. I can't say enough good things about him. He is amazing! "

L. Lang
Past Boston Latin School Parent

"Aidan is a very gifted educator! Aidan helped me understand subjects that seemed impossible such as Calculus and Statistics by breaking down the elements and concepts so that they were easy to learn. Aidan is extremely personable and makes you feel comfortable when asking questions, unlike the scary math teachers that jump down your throat ! I have seen nothing but positive results after being taught by Aidan, he has improved my grades significantly in high school, and college. I sincerely recommend Aidan as a tutor if you want to do well in that subject that's pulling your GPA down!"

G. Galofaro 
Nurse, BC and Boston Latin School Graduate

"Aidan was a lifesaver when my son was struggling in 7th grade. Even though he was attending a supportive private school, my son did best tutoring one-on-one at home with Aidan. Aidan is easy to work with both from a parent or student perspective. By the close of 8th grade, it was mutually agreed that we no longer needed Aidan’s services and my son was ready for high school.
 
Fast forward to senior year, however, and we once again needed that lifeboat for Pre-Calculus! Aidan went above and beyond to accommodate us quickly. After only one session, my son stood up from the table exclaiming, “I get it”. Of course, he still had work to do, but in 10 weekly sessions, Aidan brought him from flunking to a B+. Most importantly, my son ended his secondary schooling with renewed confidence."

E. Lambros
Past CM Parent

“Aidan is direct.  He describes three or four ways to approach a problem and after the description, asks if you understand and then gives you a problem to make sure you do understand.”
“I like that he is able to apply math to things that are happening in the world.  It makes it seem relevant.”
“He tutors a number of students at my school, Boston Latin School, and as a result he is familiar with the topics that are covered and has a good sense for some of the things you may not understand because he has other students with the same teacher.”
“He is always very encouraging and he really seems to care when you do well.  It is not fake or phony but real.  If you are happy because you got an 85, he is happy too and will encourage you to shoot for an 89 the next time.”
"Aidan Hardiman has provided tutoring to both of my daughters, covering grades 8 through 11.   As a parent I find Aidan reasonably priced, reliable, flexible, and pleasant.  His ability to come to my home was a decided convenience.  My children’s confidence and understanding really blossomed under Aidan’s patient, succinct, and clear tutelage, and their grades truly reflected it!"

M. Cunningham
Past Boston Latin Parent

"My son was in jeopardy of failing Geometry and we signed on with Aidan Hardiman approximately six weeks before final exams. While we attend Catholic Memorial, Aidan is known in the community and came highly recommended from a BLS parent.  Aidan explained geometry using practical applications with building concepts for the next lesson. Weekly test scores began to improve, as did my son’s confidence, and he completed final exams with one of the higher scores in the class. There is no higher recommendation to be given to a teacher other than the success of a student! We are looking forward to continuing SAT Prep with Aidan through the upcoming academic year."

T. Gill 
Past CM Parent

"Aidan has worked with our son and our daughter over the course of 3 years. Aidan has turned math into something they understand on a much deeper level and even enjoy. He is sensitive to a child’s individual needs and learning style, and accommodates those easily. Our kids looked forward to their sessions together and there were always smiles afterward as though the clouds had parted. He really wants his kids to do well; for example, if it was possible to rearrange things to better accommodate a test schedule, he did so, something that we appreciated enormously."

M. Horst
Past Boston Latin School Parent
