I am passionate about teaching and fascinated by our ability to learn and enable learning. For me the teaching process is a dialogue that enriches and fulfills both teacher and student. I believe that every student has the ability to excel given the right resources. It is this very belief that energizes and motivates me to strive for the success of every student I help.

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

I took 10 lessons with Hanna for the GRE and had a great experience. She recommended very helpful resources and strategies that made me more confident in tackling GRE questions. She is always willing to go over questions I don’t understand and slow down if needed. She also makes sure you have a solid understanding of a topic before moving on. She held me accountable by having me create a study log and gets a good sense of study habits so she can tailor the lesson plan. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch tutor.

5 Star ACT Math Tutor

5 stars (from the student): I was tutored by Hanna for ACT Math, and she helped me bump my ACT math score up by 6 points! What I can most certainly say is that Hanna is a very patient, kind, and effective tutor. Everyday when we would start our lesson, she would get started right away and did not waste any time. She constantly asked me what didn't make sense in a problem or what questions I had after reviewing every single math problem, which made me feel more comfortable when asking her questions. She was very patient with me when I couldn't understand a concept, and she even created example problems for us to do together if I needed extra practice. She spoke in a very clear manner every time she explained things to me, and never moved on from a math question until I understood it. She gave me lots of work outside of our tutoring lessons, but I can definitely assure that she was preparing me with the best material possible in order to get the score I wanted. I have tried multiple tutors in the past for the ACT, but none of them were as effective as Hanna was. She really pushes you to do the best that you possibly can, and I am so grateful that I was able to find her on the Wyzant platform and be tutored by her for the ACT math section. If you needed suggestions for an excellent ACT math tutor, Hanna is the person I would recommend. Student's Mom: I cannot fully express how grateful I am to Hanna for the incredible dedication and effort she put into helping my daughter improve her ACT Math score. Hanna went above and beyond—not only was she thorough and clear in her explanations, but she also taught with genuine care and commitment. I often heard her patient, detailed teaching in the background, and it was clear that she was fully invested in my daughter's success. We've tried various programs and tutors in the past for my other children, but none made a difference. With Hanna's help, my daughter’s score improved by 6 points, which is a remarkable achievement. Hanna truly made a difference, not just academically, but in my daughter's confidence as well. Wyzant has been a great platform, and I especially appreciate tutors like Hanna who offer affordable rates, making quality education accessible to more families. I sincerely hope Wyzant recognizes and rewards Hanna for the outstanding work she does. She is a gem of a tutor, and we are beyond thankful for her dedication, expertise, and heart.

Patient and Knowledgeable Tutor

Hanna helped me relearn concepts that I hadn’t studied since high school. When it took me longer to understand a math problem, she never made me feel bad or impatient. Instead, she found alternative solutions to help me grasp the material. She helped me realize that math isn’t as complicated as I make it seem and that understanding formulas can go a long way. I needed Hanna’s assistance at the last minute, and she stepped up while making me feel completely comfortable. I would highly recommend Hanna as a tutor for anyone preparing for the GRE because she provided such an amazing experience—so much so that I have a newfound appreciation for math again!

Fantastic and patient!

We finished reviewing the rest of the quantitative sections I had wrong on the GRE practice test, and did a few more practice questions based on the ones I really had trouble with. It was very helpful, and she made the concepts more clear to me. She is a fantastic and patient teacher!

Great for GRE Improvement

I needed to improve me GRE score to be at least a 160 in a short window of time, and Hanna's tutoring was incredibly helpful. She taught me how to recognize what the best strategy was for each question. This saves A LOT of time on the GRE (which you will need). She also identified which areas I was struggling in so we could focus on them more. After just two sessions I took the exam and got a 164! I would highly recommend having her as a tutor.

LITERALLY THE BEST!

Hanna is the best choice!! I was looking for a GRE tutor very last minute to improve my score and Hanna as my tutor was the best person to do the job. She is so smart, patient, and sweet and only wants to help you improve. She was so flexible with my schedule and always was the kindest to talk to. If you didn’t understand something she was there to go over it as long as you needed. She provided great resources and links and made life so much easier for this difficult process. Love her so much so if your looking for someone and your not sure who to choose…. choose HANNA!!!

Knowledgeable and kind tutor

Hanna was able to help me discuss material I was having trouble with and explain it to me in a very calm, intelligible way. She was able to help me increase my score by 15 points in only a month and a half. She was very nice and encouraging. Highly recommend to anyone that needs that extra push to get some points up!
