I also specialize in subject tutoring across a myriad of Math and Science subjects. From Algebra 1 through Trigonometry, I can help students gain a new and better understanding in math.

I specialize in tutoring SAT Math and English as well as ACT Math, Science, and English to help students excel in taking these tests. I also specialize in subject tutoring across a myriad of Math and Science subjects. From Algebra 1 through Trigonometry, I can help students gain a new and better understanding in math. My real passion, however is the sciences. I love to teach Chemistry, Biology, and Biochemistry. I studied sciences throughout my time as an undergraduate and graduate student as well as teaching collegiate level Biology labs while obtaining my graduate degree and I immensely enjoyed sharing my passion with my students. My true hope is to help each student achieve the love of academics I have and share in the exhilaration of academic success.

I excel at finding new and engaging ways to explain difficult concepts to students by focusing on the students' hobbies and passions. I thoroughly enjoy taking the time to get to know you so I can find real world examples and techniques to better demonstrate tough concepts.

I do have a 24 hour cancellation policy, but I am willing to schedule make up sessions as needed as I am flexible with my schedule.

I am happy to have my students come to me or we can find a neutral location that works for both parties. I emphasize being comfortable and calm during tutoring so we can get the most out of our time.

Great tutor!

Heather was a fantastic tutor who helped our son Matt achieve a solid B in his Algebra 2 class. This was no small feat given his lack of interest in math generally. She was patient, empathetic and very knowledgeable in the subject matter. She was able to establish a good rapport with Matt and get him interested enough in Algebra to not only get a good grade in the class but also pass his SOL test with an "advanced" score. Heather was professional and as it turned out a better math teacher than his actual high school teacher. Moreover he also just received his SAT scores and did well overall (1270) and good enough in math to be competitive for most colleges in the country. We look forward to being able to have Heather work with Matt again next school year in his Algebra 3/Trigonometry class. We give her the highest possible recommendation as a tutor.

Great tutor

Heather helped my son with work he was having trouble with. By the end of the session he had a complete understanding of the work and scored well on on his test the following week.

Great Tutor!

Heather helped my son during the summer to go over his math package requirement. She explained the problems in such easy way that he was able to grasp a good understanding and be set to start the school year with confidence. Definitely recommended!

Patient Friendly Knowledgeable

My son would not have passed Alegebra 2 without Heather! She is patient and understanding. Very friendly and knowledgeable. She is able to explain the same concept in different ways to help her student. We highly recommend Heather!

Amazing Tutor

Heather has stepped in to save the day. My daughter is a college freshman and her math classes are all online due to Covid. Heather has bridged the gap when there hasn’t been any Professor teaching. She breaks down the concepts and gives my daughter a clear plan of attack. My only regret is that we didn’t find her sooner. We plan to have Heather continue to tutor her next year in Pre-call, biology and chemistry to give her an edge to get the best grades possible. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

She makes Chemistry fun!

Heather has been tutoring my homeschooled high school junior in Chemistry and Algebra 2 on a weekly basis for the last few months. After her last session, my daughter commented that Heather has made this school year so much better due to her patient and easy to understand methods of teaching what can be complicated subjects. We are very grateful for her help.

Knowledgeable and patient Tutor

Heather was extremely accommodating and eager to locate my child's specific concerns and needs. She is very approachable, patient and understanding. She finds an appropriate method specific to the individual she is working with. Highly recommend!
