Knowledgeable, Motivating Tutor and Mentor

I can’t recommend Ashley enough as my daughter’s AP Biology tutor. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable, but she also has a gift for making complex topics accessible and engaging. What really stands out, though, is her personal touch—she takes the time to get to know her students, understanding their individual learning styles and needs. Ashley goes beyond just teaching the material; she’s a true mentor, offering both academic support and emotional encouragement. My daughter feels confident in her understanding of the subject, and more importantly, she feels genuinely supported and motivated. Ashley’s thoughtful, personalized approach has made a huge difference, and we’re so grateful for the positive impact she’s had on my daughter’s academic journey.

Ashley helped me study and prepare so easily for the AP test

Thanks to Ashley's kind and effective tutoring, I was able to score a 5 on the AP test. That was my end goal when I started tutoring with her, and I'm so glad it worked out. She made every class enjoyable, bringing good energy and making the subject fun to learn. Ashley is the best tutor, and I'm so happy with my choice.

Very positive learning environment and experience

Me and Ashley meet around once a week for an hour each time. After i started meeting with her I saw a huge jump in my grades in the class and I was starting to feel a lot more confident in the material. Leading up to the exam we did a lot of practice at the different type of problems which was one of the most helpful bits of the entire experience for me walking into my first ever AP test.

Great AP bio tutor

I’m glad I found Ashely as My daughter’s AP bio tutor. My daughter was struggling in the class. She had about 10 lessons with Ashely before AP test. According to my daughter, Ashely is great! Very knowledgeable of this subject and really knows how to teach and explain.

Excellent Expert Tutor for AP Biology

My daughter was reallly struggling as a freshman with the AP Biology course and more specifically the multiple choice testing was new to her and was difficult. Ashley is really an expert on the AP biology exam and worked through example questions with her to make sure she understands concepts that are important to take away from this course and also to help her choose from the list of answer options to narrow down and get to the right answer. We were so happy with the work they did together and highly recommend Ashley!

Excellent AP Biology Teacher

My daughter had a session with Ashley and she is so happy that she understood concepts and how to apply that knowledge to questions. We are planning on more sessions with Ashley!

Fantastic Tutor!

I can’t say enough how grateful I am to Ashley for helping my daughter with AP biology. She made my daughter feel comfortable and was very patient. She is a fantastic tutor, after just one lesson my daughter was so excited that she actually understood the material they went over together, and was able to repeat it back to Ashely like she studied the concepts for hours. She truly has a gift for teaching , she is also very funny making the tutoring session not only successful but relaxing. We already booked more sessions and my daughter can’t wait to meet with her again. Thank you!

Everytime my daughter has a lesson with her she says I feel so much better about the concept. If you are looking for AP tutor I highly recommend Ashly, you won’t be disappointed.
