For over 20 years, I have been tutoring students in math at all grade levels. In addition, I taught middle and high school math for 12 of those years. My degree is in Elementary Education and I am certified in Mathematics, grades 7-12.

Knowing that there are many ways to solve math problems, I strive to provide a multitude of strategies to promote student success. I accomplish this by using math manipulatives, real world situations, games and technology.

The focus for middle and high school students includes a concentration on clarifying concepts and skills learned in class, assisting with homework as needed, review and preparing for end of the year exams.

I understand the value of students supplementing their classroom and tutored learning by continued practice on their own. For this, I have many resources to provide students, such as notes, worksheets and websites that are great for review.

An important component of my teaching and tutoring philosophy is open communication among students, parents, teachers, and myself. Each session will result in a short report and recommendations as needed on the student’s progress. This team approach, I believe, is paramount to students’ success.

Phenomenal tutor

Jill has been helping my student with Algebra. Jill is knowledgeable and very good at explaining. My student’s grades are improving as is her confidence in math. Jill is approachable and never makes my student feel dumb for asking a question or for more explanation.

Excellent Tutor

Jill always asks if I understand a problem before we move on to the next. She is very patient and nice. I enjoy meeting with her and I am doing great in my Geometry class.

So far the Best tutor we have had.

Jill was able to teach my daughter in a fun, exciting, energetic way. My daughter said: "I love her!" We have used over 5 tutors until we found Jill and we are sticking to her for as long as my daughter will need her help!

Jacqueline, 16 lessons with Jill

Very knowledgeable and good with getting to know my son.

Jill was able to take a somewhat confusing situation, understand the background and move forward with helping us resolve my son's issues. She had a nice way of getting to know him. He started saying he thought that online tutoring was weird and he didn't want to do it, to saying it was great.
