SSAT Upper Math Tutor - Author of SSAT prep book. Patient, engaging, fun (yes, really!) lessons to dramatically improve your math score.

Kelly was very helpful to me. She helped me prepare my SAT II Math exams. Her teaching method is very effective - I was terrible at mathematics but she still helped me get a 700. She is extremely patient, kind, and clear in her explanations.

Kelly is a fantastic tutor! She taught me Math for a couple of years and helped me pass this subject that I've always struggled in. Without her I would've found it impossible to pass IB Math. Kelly is extremely friendly and patient, which in my case helped; and always seems to find an easy way to explain things.

Kelly has been a great tutor during our sessions. Very professional and kind, she helped me acquire my basic math knowledge for the IGCSE courses as well as developing my mathematical terms in English. Her ways of teaching are excellent for young teenagers and students who are not fluent with the English language.

I returned to college to finish my undergraduate degree when I was in my forties. I had a few math classes to complete and knew that I may have a challenge with algebra since it had been so many years since my last algebra class. I overestimated my memory and found myself near tears after the first class. None of it was clicking for me. I called Kelly, in a panic, and asked if she would be available to tutor me that following weekend. Thank goodness she said yes!

Kelly began by teaching me the foundational basics of algebra and then proceeded to one of my homework problems. She showed me a couple different approaches to solving the problem. I wasn't getting it. I began to get frustrated with myself which only compounded the situation.

I'll never forget her putting her hand on my shoulder and encouraging me to relax, that it was going to be ok. She went on to say, very soothingly, that she had many tricks up her sleeve and she would simply continue to show me different approaches until one of them clicked for me. Just her attitude alone made me more comfortable and confident that I would know what I was doing before she left my house that day. And sure enough, shortly after that everything made sense and I felt certain I could finish the homework on my own.

She changed my entire experience with college level algebra and statistics and I couldn't be more grateful!

Kelly not only helped me to get outstanding grades on my tests but she made sure I had a thorough understanding of everything I was doing. I found out how and why things worked in mathematics. I had an F when we started, but I ended my year with a steady B in Algebra 2, which is something I never could have even imagined. Kelly helped me with many things, from English to Science to Math, but more importantly she helped me improve my study habits. I am a lot more dedicated to my schoolwork now that I've had her as a tutor.

Working with Kelly allowed me to develop more confidence in my math skills and during tests. Her capability of adapting the way she explained things to me made it so much easier for me to understand things, such as by drawing sketches etc. Also it was really easy to connect with her and feel comfortable, it was a really great experience.

Kelly tutored me in math for two years and was the best tutor I have ever had. Whatever topic I was having trouble with, she made it easy to understand with her clear and detailed explanations, always making sure I fully understood everything. I really enjoyed my lessons with Kelly as she always made me feel completely at ease and relaxed and I never felt like I was asking any "stupid questions".  She made the lessons fun and the time always flew by. I couldn't recommend her more!

I can’t thank Kelly enough for all the support she gave me while preparing for my test. She spent so many hours working with me—always patient, always kind—making sure I truly understood the concepts rather than just memorizing them. Her explanations were clear, and she never hesitated to go over something again if I needed it.

What I appreciated most was how encouraging she was when I felt overwhelmed. She broke everything down step by step and made even the most complicated problems feel manageable. Thanks to her, I walked into my test feeling confident and prepared. If you're looking for a tutor who genuinely cares and will go above and beyond to help you succeed, I highly recommend Kelly!
