Extremely Knowledgeable and helpful

Extremely Knowledgeable and helpful. There have been no questions I posed to Dr. Lucy that she cannot solve. Truly and amazingly gifted tutor. She is very patient and easily understandable.

David, 12 lessons with Lucy

A very knowledgeable, caring, and high-effort tutor.

Lucy was super helpful with AP-level physics problems that I didn't understand. She truly wanted me to learn and comprehend the material. She made sure she was prepared for the session and it was clear she knew exactly what she was talking about. She was very easy to learn from and was a great communicator.

Kiwhan, 7 lessons with Lucy

Great teacher and very good at making students understand concepts

Lucy is very good at making me understand concepts very quickly and she gives freedom to express our problem areas in subject. So far had one class and scheduling more.

Mani, 12 lessons with Lucy

great teacher

Lucy was a Great and patient tutor, who was attentive and prepared to address my needs. She went through different problems with me and was supportive throughout the session

Nada, 1 lesson with Lucy

Great learning experience.

Lucy's instruction was clear and detailed oriented. She's very patient to point out the key steps. I missed some background here and there, but she's always able to find out what I didn't get, then effectively 'fix' that for me. Thanks!

Owena, 8 lessons with Lucy

Thank You Lucy!

Lucy has always been very helpful, she's an amazing tutor. When dealing with power circuits that I've had a hard time understanding, she is always very very patient with me and walks me step by step and makes sure I'm understanding. Thank you Lucy for all of your patience and for being an amazing teacher!

Vanessa, 9 lessons with Lucy

Good tutor, understands what needs explaining

I have used this tutor to review sample exams for my analog electronics II class, and she has been very helpful. She understands how to thoroughly solve the problems and throws in some key concept lessons when I need them. In each of my sessions, we have covered the equivalent of 3 hours worth of exam material in half that time, and I feel much better off afterwards. Very good teacher!

Daniel, 3 lessons with Lucy

Excellent Electrical Engineering Tutor, Extremely knowledgeable, and Patient

Lucy helped me get a clear understanding of how to approach a type of Power Electronics problem (RMS and Average value). It has been quite some time since I had to work with diodes and trigonometry, and she showed me that at first a problem might seem very difficult but it's recognizing what tools you can use in this case my trig. identities and doing the calculations thoroughly and not miss any computation. Lucy was extremely patient, thorough and wanted me to feel comfortable the next time I encountered a problem like this!

Vanessa, 9 lessons with Lucy

Excellent engineering tutor

I had a number of electrical engineering questions that Lucy was able to help me with during our session. She is a very efficient and thoughtful teacher. She answered all of my questions and explained everything very thoroughly. I know I will be using her in the future if I have questions about an engineering topic.
