About Theresa


Bio

Hello, my name is Theresa and I would like to tell you a little about myself.

First of all, I recently moved to Wilkes Barre area from Maryland, where I spent 4 years as a math teacher. I got married, and we moved to this area for my husband's work.

While my degree is in Biology, I also have experience in Mathematics.

I am a very patient person, and I love helping people through difficult material. I am looking forward to working with you!

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Theresa went over each section of the science section of the ged with clear and knowledgeable information. She was very friendly and on time. I highly reccomend her as your tutor. She does math as Well. If I get to that section before she moves I plan to set up a tutor session.

Thana, 31 lessons with Theresa

Great teacher, Fun to listen and talk to, Relateable

This is an 11th grade student leaving a review from her mom’s account, and Theresa has been much help for my PreCalculus class. My grade went up one! She’s very easy to be engaged with because she likes to tell stories and random stuff from her life, and personally, that made me feel at ease quite quickly with her. She’s a very understanding person as well, which I appreciate. She also clarifies any concerns thoroughly. I’d suggest having her as a tutor :)

Helpful chemistry tutor

Theresa helped my daughter with high school honors chemistry. She was able to help her improve her grade from barely passing to a solid B with just 4 lessons.

Lisa, 4 lessons with Theresa

Patient and fun to work with!

This was my daughter's first time meeting with Theresa and she was so much more confident after just one lesson. She likes her a lot and said she's one of her favorite kinds of teachers because she makes learning fun. We will be meeting again with Theresa soon after conferences when we know more of what is being taught in class.
