“Whitney is a fantastic tutor. My daughter is a HS senior taking Linear Algebra, and as her first test came up she did not feel ready. Luckily for us, Whitney turned out to be an incredible tutor. My daughter not only understood the concepts she had trouble with but also gained confidence after her session. She did very well on her test, thanks in no small part to Whitney's expert instruction. My daughter loved Whitney's lesson so much so that we booked a weekly tutoring session. Highly recommended!”

“Whatever issue you are having with stats will be solved in as little as 1 session with Whitney. She is so amazing at specifically TEACHING the information to you, while also being so knowledgeable on the subject. She breaks dampen complex ideas with simple analogies that make stats seem like something simple. I 100% recommend her to anyone needing help!!”

“Whitney worked on SAT prep with my daughter Isabella. My daughter felt really comfortable with. With her tutoring schedule running until midnight, she makes time for as many kids as she can. My daughter took her SAT today at school, she said the second part of math was really hard, and since the tests are now adaptive, I hope that means she did really well on the first part. Thanks again Whitney for all that you've done for Isabella. I'll let you know how she scored..”

“If you are looking for a math tutor who delivers results, Whitney is the one. My daughter was having a very difficult time with Geometry, but after just a few months of tutoring, she is now an A student. Whitney provides the perfect balance of academic expertise and motivational support. She helped my daughter overcome her 'math anxiety' and turn her grades around completely. We are so grateful for her help!”

“We engaged Whitney for Calculus help for my grandson, who is a college freshman. She was terrific -- patient, clear in her explanations, knowledgeable, pro-active. So helpful that we booked regular weekly sessions, and now my grandson is acing his quizzes (just got a 10 out of 10 on his last quiz, thanks to Whitney). Highly recommend!”

“Recently, I got a 100 percent on my math test for the first time in 3 years! Before I worked with her, I would get 90's but never a 100. I started working with Whitney, and my test scores visibly improved a lot. I finally got a 100 percent thanks to Whitney!”

“Whitney helped our son Ben get through the last few months of his 10th grade Honors Chemistry class. She was able to clear up the confusion created by his classroom teacher, and to explain the concepts in a way that was understandable. If Ben needs a tutor in the future, he hopes that Whitney will again be available.”

“Whitney taught me how to perform hypothesis tests by learning about t-tests and z-tests. I learned how to find the p-value for both tables and how to apply the p-value to fail to reject the null hypothesis or reject the null hypothesis. I also learned how to use r coding in R studio, to solve the hypothesis tests as well. Overall, Whitney helped me a lot and was very patient when I didn't understand something.”
