When my son was in first grade, a teacher told him that math is like brushing your teeth. It is something you have to do every day and it is something you can’t forget. Practice makes you better and the more you practice, the easier math gets. Just like brushing his teeth, my son works with Kate regularly. Kate has been a part of my 6th grade son’s learning for the last two years, meeting every Saturday morning at the library. Kate follows along with my son’s math curriculum at school, reinforcing what he has learned for the week and explaining problems that were not clear in the classroom. Her patience and commitment to helping my son is truly commendable. My son is a more confident test taker because of Kate. He achieves his academic goals for the year and Kate is instrumental in his math accomplishments. Kate is knowledgeable and is able to explain concepts clearly. Kate also helps my 9th grade son. Last year, she helped prepare my son for the High School Preparation Test. She is a great tutor for his Honors Algebra 1 class and will be helping him with Honors Geometry and SAT preparation soon. Kate is always a pleasure to work with. My sons used to ask me, “Why is Kate always smiling?” Kate is a happy and a pleasant person! She is helping both my sons reach their potential.

Humza, 1 lesson with Kate

I genuinely recommend Kate, thanking to her incredible work with my high school junior son during his Pre-calc summer intensive program. Kate's dedication and expertise truly turned around his grades, making a significant impact on his academic performance. What sets Kate apart is her ability to understand and adapt to my son's unique learning style. As a sometimes rebellious teenager, he needs someone who could not only teach effectively but also keep him motivated and engaged. Kate excelled on all fronts. Her supportive approach and excellent communication skills ensured that my son not only understood the material but also enjoyed learning it. After trying several 5-star tutors, Kate proved to be a true rock star. Thank you, Kate, for your outstanding commitment and professionalism!

Kate is patient, thorough and knowledgeable. I strongly recommend her for advanced high school math if your child has reached levels you'd prefer not to go back and slowly remember yourself.

Sangeeta, 60 lessons with Kate

She helped me solve twice as fast and she’s a very excellent teacher!! If I had to do my HW alone I would have taken 3x as long and would not have understood anything.

Alia, 20 lessons with Kate

Kate is doing an amazing job connecting and helping my sophomore with Algebra 2. She is able to help him understand the concepts and not just the individual problem. I'm so thankful we found her!!

Amee, 139 lessons with Kate

I was having extreme problems in regards to online pre-calculus on edmentum. The "tutorials" that were given to me as lessons to learn those pre calculus topics were an enigma to me in the way they explained it and I was left with more questions than answers. Then I decided to get tutoring help from Kate and helped me a great deal! She was kind, patient and was willing to help me with problems I was confused on. She's a great teacher and 100% would recommend her to anyone who is struggling with pre-calculus.

Arthur, 8 lessons with Kate

DA on class grade · +30 pts · Geometry

Kate is an amazing tutor. She is patient, thorough, and explains the material in a way that’s easy to understand. My daughter had a D in geometry and since we’ve been working with Kate she now has an A. We feel so blessed to have found Kate and highly recommend her.

Lynn, 104 lessons with Kate

We could not ask for a better tutor than Kate. She has helped my 10th grade daughter with Geometry and my daughter is thriving and so much more confident in her math skills. She even got 100% on her final Geometry exam! Kate tutors in a way that makes it easy to understand, she is thorough and extremely patient. She is punctual, reliable and we just love her!

Maddie, 83 lessons with Kate

I asked my son at the end of the session what star rating I should give. He said without hesitating - “give her a 5 dad.” Then he asked when can he have another lesson. Now that’s an effective tutor !

Ray, 44 lessons with Kate

Kate came to our house in a timely fashion. Also my son feels she is able to breakdown geometry to simplify so it is easier to understand and remember. She is very knowledgeable in the subject and will continue to work together

Hema, 2 lessons with Kate

Kate has been working with my son and has a huge difference. He was struggling in math, and now he is scoring As and Bs. My biggest concern was he was not fully understanding the concepts, but Kate changed all of that. He understands the concepts now and can explain them back. He finished last year with an A grade. Kate's expertise, patience and positive attitude has made all the difference. My son is positive about math and his confidence is greatly improved.

Eileen, 159 lessons with Kate

Am a incoming sixth grader and wanted to brush up on my math skills before the start of school. Kate taught me how to convert fractions into decimals and percentages vice a versa and taught me a little bit of algebra. I loved how Kate was very patient and did not just teach you one way to solve the equation that was given but taught you many ways including the most efficient way. Kate was very friendly and kind and always has a smile. Kate's tutoring improved my confidence in math. Thank you Kate for everything and am hoping to work with you again in the near future.

Roni, 2 lessons with Kate

My daughter really enjoys working with Kate because she's able to quickly explain the Geometry problems that my daughter will get stuck on. A great confidence build in preparing for finals.

John, 5 lessons with Kate

She is very knowledgable and reliable, and both of my kids really like working with her. I highly recommend her as a math tutor for any high school level, although we have mainly used her for Algebra and calculus.

Steve, 18 lessons with Kate

My daughter needed help for her Geometry test coming up. Kate helped her study and with her homework and explained everything very well. After she finished the material from school, Kate wrote out some more similar problems for my daughter to work on and get more practice. Thank you so much Kate! We will definitely request more sessions in the future.

Kate is really helping my daughter keep up with her pre-calc class (even though math is her least favorite subject). We appreciate her flexibility in changing times to suit my daughters busy schedule.

Frances, 16 lessons with Kate

Kate helped my daughter with Precalculus. Kate understands the material and was able to explain it to my daughter in a easy straightforward way. We will definitely be calling Kate again for help!

Kris, 3 lessons with Kate

Just had a lesson with Kate and my 8th grade daughter really clicked with her. Kate answered all her questions about current Algebra and moved ahead in the textbook so she would be ready for the following week. Great experience, highly recommend.

Tena, 68 lessons with Kate

Kate was very helpful with my daughters geometry lesson. She seemed to be able to explain the lesson in a way that my daughter could understand. Her communication with me was great and she was right on time to start the lesson as well. We look forward to ur next lesson

Michele, 19 lessons with Kate

She was knowledgeable about the subject matter, she was patient, she was encouraging, and she is a natural teacher. Kate was able to improve my sons math performance more in two days than weeks of school. Excellent tutor. I'd recommend her without reservation.

Arch, 2 lessons with Kate

Kate really care to help my son to get a better grade by checking on his teacher website to see what are coming tests. She emailed his teacher and asked what she can help to bring up his grade. We really are glad she is helping Nathan. :)
