Jia is the GOAT

I got in contact with her way too late to help me explain a statistics 2 assignment I didn't understand and by the end of the day I knew what I needed to do and the assignment was done. She explained everything super well and wasn't stuffy or uncomfortable to talk to. I was kinda freaking out and was calm within like 10 minutes. She explains things like you're talking to a friend who just knows more than you. Everyone has their thing. I can write a 25 page research paper with 40 sources and hunt down a congressional staffer from the 80s to interview based on the congressional archives in 16 hours (real story) but anything more than addition and subtraction makes me sweaty. I felt dumb. Jia understood that, didn't make me feel stupid, and helped me get things in a way I would understand. The assignment isn't even graded. I don't care about writing this review beforehand because im confident I will get a good grade and frankly it doesn't matter because I wouldn't have turned it in at all without her. Worth every penny and more. I'll probably be back for my next assignment. I still hate stats. No one is changing that. But if I get stuck I know who I'm asking for help.

Gift of translating concepts

My son is picky about his tutors. He is complimentary of Jia’s ability to explain economics (AP HS course) concepts in a way that he can understand. We will be adding her for statistics as well.

Very happy

Jia jumped right in and was so knowledgeable in the material. She really helped my daughter understand and allowed her to do the problems on her own. She gave her great feedback.

Knowledgable and adaptable teacher.

She is able to adapt to any method of learning and quickly teach you the knowledge and tricks you need to know for getting the problem right next time. Every problem is explained patinently and a pace that is correct for you, making sure that along with knowing how to do it, you understand why you do it.

The BEST on Wyzant. Exceptional Tutor

Jia is the BEST math tutor I've ever had. Having taken a seven-year break from math, I was nervous about getting back into the subject. However, Jia's exceptional tutoring skills and motivational approach made the transition not only smooth but also very enjoyable! From our very first session, it was evident that Jia possesses a deep understanding of mathematics and a genuine passion for teaching. Her ability to break down complex concepts into manageable pieces is truly remarkable. She tailors each lesson to my specific needs, ensuring that I fully grasp the material before moving on. Jia's teaching style is both patient and encouraging. She creates a supportive learning environment where I feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Her positive attitude and unwavering belief in my potential inspire me to strive for excellence. With Jia's guidance, I've regained my confidence in math and achieved far more than I thought possible. Beyond her technical expertise, Jia is incredibly professional, punctual, and well-organized. She consistently comes prepared with customized lesson plans and additional resources to reinforce my learning. Her dedication to my progress is evident in every session, and I am grateful for the time and effort she invests in my success. Jia's impact on my math journey has been transformative. She motivates me to be the best I can be and has reignited my passion for learning. I wholeheartedly recommend Jia to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, supportive, and inspiring math tutor. She truly is a gem, and I am fortunate to have her as my tutor.
