Student Success! PreCalc and ACT

I highly recommend Christine for anyone challenged by HS Math or seeking to prep for the ACT test. I initially engaged Christine to help my child overcome a challenge in her Pre Calc class. My child quickly mastered that Pre Calc topic in one session with Christine. As a result of that success we hired Christine for 4 more sessions to prep for the ACT. Christine worked with my child to identify areas of weakness, provide a refresher of previous course material and introduce her to a bit of new material that she felt could be grasped quickly and had a high probability of being on the ACT. As a result my child increased her Math ACT by +6 points. Needless to say we are thrilled and grateful. Christine’s calm demeanor and nonjudgmental style proved to be a perfect fit us. Christine is very skilled in teaching High School Algebra, Geometry, Trig and Pre Calc and went above and beyond to insure my child had relevant practice materials. She also provided valuable insight into strategy for taking the Math portion of the ACT. We found her to be very professional and readily accessible.

Highly recommend

My daughter taking Algebra 2 has had two lessons so far with Christina. Christina has been extremely helpful, patient and clear in her explanations. She went over review problems in one hour that would have taken my daughter hours to figure out by herself, and gave her confidence that she could handle them.

An Excellent Tutor

Christina has helped my two children with both Algebra and Geometry. Grades improved drastically! As did comfort and confidence with math. I am very grateful for the work she did with them; especially during COVID online learning. We're going to keep seeing Christina for as long as she will have us through high school math, and to study for ACT/SAT. I feel very lucky that we found her!

Geometry tutoring

Christina was available for a last minute tutoring session for assistance with my daughter's geometry homework. I used her once before for another child. As usual, she did a wonderful job! She is very knowledgeable and allows my child to attempt to complete the work while she is guided by Christina. Great tutor!

Algebra 2 - Optimization and Absolute value functions

She is very patient and detailed. Takes her time to explain everything in detail and makes sure the student grasps the topic. We started with her couple of weeks back and we love her and will continue with her so our daughter is ready for algebra 2 topics that the school is going to teach her in advance.
