Caring, Passionate, & Dedicated Tutor

My daughter has been working with Jackie for two days now, and immediately I saw the passion and dedication that she embodies in her work with children. My daughter warmed up to Jackie instantaneously. In two days, I can’t even begin to explain the weight that has been lifted, knowing that my daughter is in phenomenal care, and getting the quality help that she so deserves. I promise, you won’t go wrong in choosing Jackie for your child’s tutoring needs.

Difficult, distractable first grader

Jacqueline patiently worked with Ava to assess her needs and develop a lesson plan. We will proceed with more online lessons. If online lessons do not work for her, we will reassess.

Cynthia, 51 lessons with Jacquelyn

Patient Tutor

My son is struggling with math and Jacqueline was patient helping him. She doesn’t give him the answers but asked him questions that helped clarified what is being asked. He is still struggling determining what equations to use but Jacqueline is patient to guide him through without giving the answers.

Well-Organized Tutor

My son had a trial with her and met her. They discussed problem areas and developed a plan to work on his math and English work. We moved forward in working with Jacqueline.

Knowledgable and Patient Tutor

Jacquelyn was very helpful. I had a test for Trignometry and wanted to review my study guide and practice problems. After reviewing with Jacquelyn she cleared all of the questions that I had, she was patient with me and allowed me to think through my problems as well as helped me through it when I felt stuck. I am now more confident in my current Trig unit because of Jacquelyn. I highly recommend Jacquelyn, and I will definitely be continuing to receive support from her
