Top Notch Tutor
Amy is an excellent tutor. She’s worked with my son at HPU several times. She has a lot of patience and great understanding of what it takes. I appreciate your communication and the effort she puts into helping her students.

Amazing and easy to understand
My daughter had nothing but rave reviews on Amy. She was able to easily explain the material and methods for Pre-Calculus and help my daughter get ahead of her issues.

Great Teacher
Amy is a great tutor! My daughter loves working with her . Great communication and very responsive with setting appointments.
Lori, 34 lessons with AmyTutor responded:Thank you Lori for your review! I have loved working with your daughter and helping her this year! She is very easy to work with and good at asking for additional help when needed. I have seen her gain a great deal of confidence in her math ability since we began! :-)
Flexible, patient, and knowledgeable
Amy worked with my son when he was struggling with Algebra 2. While being very advanced in math when younger, he fell behind in learning during the pandemic and was on the verge of failing this year. With Amy's support, he improved his grade tremendously from quarter 1 to quarter 2 and passed math. He really enjoyed working with her and appreciated that she would make sure he understood concepts. He also appreciated that he was able to give him more than one method of doing something to better match his learning style. I found her very flexible and a good communicator in scheduling. While he's excited to get a break this semester from math, we'll definitely look forward to working with Amy again next year.
Caroline, 50 lessons with AmyTutor responded:Thank you so much for such a kind and thorough review! He was such a joy to work with! I appreciated how well he communicated to me when something just "wasn't clicking". I always stress this to students, because then I am able to regroup and show them a different strategy or method that makes more sense to them. :-) It is very typical for me to adjust my methods to match the learning styles of each student and one of the reasons I enjoy working individually with students!! I get so excited when they reach that "aha" moment and are happy about their success! I look forward to working with him in the future! Tell him to have a great summer and I'll see him soon. :-)
Excellent with 8 year old grandson
Very very good experience. Amy is a perfect fit for our grandson. He really likes her and her personality is excellent. They hit it off and he will learn from her. We are very thankful.

Great connection to student
Amy tutored my daughter for an upcoming ACT math test. She was patient and made sure that my daughter truly understood how to complete the problems she struggled with. Amy taught my daughter time-saving techniques to improve her pace. Her communication skills are especially good—she not only cared about how my daughter did on the ACT, but also about how she was coping with the challenges of everyday life during the pandemic. I highly recommend her tutoring services.
Christine, 11 lessons with AmyTutor responded:It was such a joy to work with Penny!! She was very attentive and eager to learn all of the strategies and shortcuts that I taught her. She became much more confident in her abilities once we went over the areas she struggled with the most. :-) She did so much better on the 2nd practice test after several sessions with me and independent practice! With continued practice on her own using resources that I shared with her, I have no doubt she will obtain her desired score!! :-)
Knowledge and Helpful Tutor
Amy did a great job helping me with Business Calculus. When she started tutoring me, I was worried that I wasn't going to pass the class but with her valuable tutoring sessions, I made a B! I couldn't have done this without her assistance. She is able to teach math in a way that is easy to understand and I highly recommend her services.
Gavin, 6 lessons with AmyTutor responded:Gavin, it was my pleasure helping you! It is always refreshing when I'm able to see students gain confidence with their math skills/ability and especially see it reflected in their numeric grade. ;-). Thank you for the awesome review!
Amy has been so VERY HELPFUL to me as I prepare for the ACT!
After sharing my latest score with Amy, she was able to pinpoint areas that I needed improvement and helped me to focus on these areas first, in order to raise my score. She is very helpful and explains problems in a way that is easy to learn. She also gives strategies for the ACT test that have proved helpful to me. I would recommend her to anyone needing help!
Abbey, 2 lessons with AmyTutor responded:Abbey you are an absolute JOY to teach! You are like a sponge! You remember the tricks I teach you and have been extremely attentive during our online sessions this week! I am confident that your score will improve even higher tomorrow after our recent sessions and all of your hard work!! I always look forward to working with you!!!
Knowledgeable and patient tutor!
She was great. Already scheduled more tutoring sessions for next week. She does a great job making the student feel comfortable and works on things they need help with.
