About
I am a professional math and science tutor with over 20 years of experience. I believe all students can succeed, given the right instruction and enough time. Most students are frustrated with math and science, but they always leave with a smile, because they realize they finally have someone who can help them learn. I tutor Algebra I and II, geometry, trigonometry, precalculus, and chemistry.

Janet is an outstanding tutor. She assisted my daughter with geometry, algebra 2, physics, and ACT preparation. The information she has provided over the past 2 years has been invaluable. Janet has a wealth of academic knowledge. She is also very helpful with college counseling. As well as, she is flexible with scheduling times and places. We are so grateful to her!

Responsive. Capable. Very busy with standing clients, but tries to accomodate schedules. Friendly, speaks "teen friendly" language, not pedantic.

Difficult to imagine that my daughter went from no confidence to total confidence after her first session. Don't know how or what Janet did, but, she did a great job helping her with Algebra II.

My daughter loves working with Janet and appreciates her tutoring style and thoroughness. We are very grateful we found her and having her tutor at our daughter's school is an added bonus. She knows her subjects well and teaches topics in advance so students are even better prepared.

Janet is an absolutely awesome tutor. She has assisted my son with Algebra 2 and chemistry. She knows her subject areas very well and has the ability to connect with students and force them to stretch themselves. She builds confidence and knowledge. My son's grades improved as did his interest in subjects he was challenged by.

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I like to say that I learn more every day. My students teach me new ways to teach. Every student is different, so I am always learning better ways to explain. It's a challenge every day, and I love it! I take a new class, or repeat an old one, every semester. This helps me remember what it’s like to be a student, and keeps my brain is fresh. :-)

  • What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

    Lots of people think that anyone can be a good tutor. I think it takes a very special type of person, who can constantly readjust their teaching to fit each student. A good tutor can balance what they give students: not too much that the student doesn't have to work, but not too little that the student doesn't understand.
