A good number of prospective graduate students have worked with me when facing their entrance exams. I'm qualified to assist with both the math portions and the language portions of the GMAT, having experienced success in achieving the target scores desired.

GRE

GRE

One of the joys of my tutoring experience over the years has been working with college students interested in graduate work. Because I faced a graduate entrance exam as well, I understand those facing the GRE. I've assisted a number of students to improve both verbal and math scores on this exam. Each of my students is openly received as the indiviual person they are, taking into account personal goals and learning styles unique to them alone. Together we create success.

As a math tutor in the local area, I've worked with lots of geometry students. And though I admit that I really enjoy the subject, I also recognize that it's not always everyone's favorite.

My students find it comfortable working alongside me, knowing that I offer assistance without judgement. Together we create success.

John, 9 lessons with Joan

Best session!

I met with Joan for the first time today and I can say this may have been one of my best tutoring sessions to date. She explained topics I had difficulty understanding well and she made me feel like an equal in our session. I’m genuinely excited for my next session and to continue learning and better preparing for my upcoming GRE exam!

My son was prepairing for the SAT. He struggled to understand multiple concepts. Joan worked with our schedule and helped him gain a solid understanding of these concepts in two sessions. She did an excellent job, and we are grateful!

Understanding & Patient

First lesson was very helpful. Looking forward to more lessons with Joan. She is helping me acquire the skills needed to perform above average on the SAT. With her tutoring skills, I am sure I will do well.

Terri, 2 lessons with Joan

Great tutor

She meet with my daughter regarding statistics. Took the time to introduce herself and to get to know my daughter. She was knowledgeable and patient. Time well spent to get my daughter caught up since my daughter didn’t start class until 3 weeks after first day of school.

Katherine, 5 lessons with Joan

Excellent tutor!

Joan and I reviewed problems associated with GRE exam, including geometry, algebra and real-world math. She walked me through each problem I got wrong and showed me how I can solve similar problems in the future. Joan is a very patient and helpful tutor! I highly recommend working with Joan.

The Most Friendly, Considerate, and Hardworking Tutor

Joan continues to put an incredible amount of planning and material preparation into each Spanish lesson. In every two-on-one lesson, she differentiates her instruction and task expectations to teach to our unique learning styles, enabling us to each be challenged 100% of the time. Each hour with Joan is fun, productive, positive, and challenging. We also appreciate the homework she thoughtfully prepares for us each week to allow us to learn on our own. ¡Muy bien!

Abby, 47 lessons with Joan

Very interesting lesson

We enjoyed our 1st lesson with Joan. I feel that my Daughter was encouraged after this lesson. Joan's positive encouragement and attitude seemed to help my Daughter and we look forward to our next lesson.
