My background: I am a certified math teacher and have been tutoring privately for over 20 years. Additionally, I currently work for a local college as a tutor and adjunct Professor.

"Wonderful, caring and devoted teacher"
- George, Indian Rocks Beach, FL on 1/24/15Trish helped my daughter in so many ways. She not only taught her Algebra, but gave her the confidence to figure problems out for herself. My daughter was struggling in the beginning, but when she took the mid-term exam she aced it. Her final grade for the first semester was a strong B.
Trish even works on Sundays and has been known to cancel her personal plans to accommodate her students. We highly recommend Trish H. for any student who needs a superb teacher.

- David, Seminole, FL on 7/28/16Trish tutored my son in math during the summer. She was always very professional with excellent/helpful feedback on ways to support our son in reinforcing math concepts.

Needless to say---by the end of the summer, our son gained the confidence and ability he needed to tackle middle school math.
