study skills


elementary science

Although my science certification is in grades 7-12, I have tutored science at the elementary level. More importantly, I have years of experience in tutoring children of elementary school age. I have learned how to approach the topics in science simply and clearly to avoid overwhelming and/or scaring the child. Actually, I use that approach in all my tutoring.


elementary math

Depending on the grade level, elementary math consists of counting, place values, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, percentages, fractions, mixed numbers, decimals, pre-algebra, elementary algebra, and more. Most students benefit from one-on-one tutoring because of the individual attention they receive. In addition, in a classroom full of learners of all abilities, a particular child’s needs can’t be suitably met. I have about two years experience tutoring math to students in Grades 1-8.


ACT Science


ACT Math


PSAT


ACT Reading


ACT English


GMAT

My certification and qualifications as a (now retired) high school teacher has enabled me to teach the math part of the GMAT test. The math part of the test, (37 questions, 75 minutes) consists of basic arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and word problems. Most college students have already learned these subjects, but need some math-refreshing to bring it all back. I can certainly help with that.


ASVAB


SAT writing


physical science


SAT reading


GED


precalculus


trigonometry

I am qualified to teach high school trigonometry. This is am important subject to know for pre-calculus. There are always a few trig problems on the ACT test.


statistics

While helping a student through his college statistics course, I guided him through the weekly homework, the project on hypothesis testing and the final exam. Most of the work fell upon me because of my knowledge of mathematics and experience with scientific research. As a result, I took the course with him, and we earned an A. Following that experience, I took an online Statistics course to reinforce and better understand the concepts.


SAT math


prealgebra


chemistry


geometry

Some students like it, others dislike it; whatever the emotion, geometry is usually required in high school and necessary to know to do well on college-prep tests and the ASVAB (military entrance test). I have taught Geometry at the high school level and now teach and review it often when tutoring.

Tammie M. from Florissant, MO

Jane is very skilled and knowledgeable in teaching both my children. She has helped them gain an understanding of their Math concepts and with her ongoing help they are doing much better in school!


Patrick G. from Florissant, MO

I have seen marked improvement in my son's confidence related to the upcoming ACT Test. I am really excited about the possible results.


Angie R. from Maryland Heights, MO

Jane has been amazing at helping our daughter study for the ASVAB test this past month! We'd recommend her to everyone!


Kim S. from O Fallon, MO

Jane tutored my daughter for her ACT test. She was very knowledgeable, patient and easy to schedule with. She was able to teach my daughter the skills that she needed to improve her overall ACT scores in all subject sections. She was wonderful to work with.


Teresa E. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane M was always very patient with my son. He wasn't always on time and always wanted to change his appointments, and she was very agreeable to help out. Her goal was to help the student, not just to make money. I was very happy that I found Jane on my first try in tutor hunting.


Roberto S. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane is an excellent tutor. You can tell she has a passion for teaching. She is very patient and understanding. She takes the time to make sure that you understand what's going on before moving on. I would recommend her to anyone needing a tutor. I'm very glad I found her. WyzAnt is lucky to have a tutor of her caliber on their roster. Thanks Jane and WyzAnt!


Theresa N. from Florissant, MO

My granddaughter is in the ninth grade and has always had trouble in math. She always got very high grades in all subjects, but not math and she hated it. I wish I had known Jane M. back when she was younger because now she is getting it and we only had four lessons. I am very grateful for Jane.


Reggie W. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane is the best tutor I could have ever asked for. She's patient and very knowledgeable. If it's something she doesn't know, she will study it in her own time and then review with you. I would recommend her to anybody that needs an algebra tutor. I'm glad she answered my request through WyzAnt. She has helped me more than I could have ever hoped for. My grades have gone from average to excellent. Thank you Jane.


Stacy S. from Saint Louis, MO

My son loves working with Ms. Jane. She is so polite and very patient. I highly recommend her to any child struggling in math.


Nir R. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane gains a sense for each student very quickly and then is able to effectively put her vast knowledge to work. She is wise, caring, and devoted. Her abilities are rivaled by her communication and passion, a winning combination for anyone who needs tutoring and coaching such as she provides. We are grateful.


Likui Y. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane's level of preparation for each lesson was amazing. Not only did she provide invaluable resources to help me greatly improve ACT score, her patient and encouraging teaching style promotes a sense of hard work and dedication. I'm glad I worked with Jane and I hope she can be a great tutor to those seeking help as well.


Carly G. from Florissant, MO

Jane is an amazing tutor. She is working with my daughter to help her prepare for her GED. My daughter was adopted from South America at age 10, so is not a native English speaker. Even with my daughter's limited English, we have seen a tremendous amount of progress in her readiness for the GED. I highly recommend Jane to anyone who is looking for a tutor. She is patient, kind, gives challenging work and develops just the learning plan that the student needs to grow and succeed. UPDATE: My daughter passed the last section of her GED (HISET) test and is now a graduate! She is wonderful at developing a positive relationship with her students and working with them to learn the skills and information that they need to succeed. My daughter had an extremely positive experience in working with Jane and Jane worked very hard to help my daughter achieve her goals. Kudos to Jane for doing all she did.


Jane R. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane was very kind, patient, and very helpful! I am more confident about my upcoming test thanks to her. If I ever need a chemistry tutor again, I know just who to contact!


Lenell S. from Hazelwood, MO

Mrs. Jane and I met for our first lesson of the year. I can say Mrs. Jane is on Fire, we scored excellent in all the assignments completed. I would recommend Mrs. Jane to any of my classmates needing assistance in math. She knows her stuff, and is very patient with questions, that I may ask more than once. I feel very comfortable tutoring with Mrs. Jane, and I am anticipating our meeting next week.


Sandra L. from Saint Charles, MO

I think Jane will be a great tutor for my daughter, who really liked her on day 1 and was very excited about the opportunity to work with Jane. Thank you so much.


Cherise C. from Florissant, MO

Jane is so patient with me and an excellent tutor. She makes me feel comfortable and I can ask as many questions that I need to and will explain as many times as she needs to. She is very helpful and patient and I truly appreciate her.


Wendell H. from Saint Louis, MO

My experience is the best ever and I am going to purchase more credit. Jane is the greatest tutor in the world.


Diann M. from Florissant, MO

Jane is very good to work with. She is able to take control of a the child who is distracted or defiant. Jane is great at Algebra, but when the student is being taught a new way of working the problems through the school Jane is behind in the new ways of doing the Algebra. I must say that Jane was willing to learn the new ways and took the effort on her own personal time to look up how they were doing that method. So she was very prepared for the the next session with the child. Jane is a person who truly cares about the students!! I will use Jane again if we need more help.


Bibi H. from O Fallon, MO

Ms. Jane M seems to be a very caring teacher and she works with the students to help them meet their goals. I am impressed by the interest she took in planning my son's schedule so that he would get the maximum benefit of the hours of tutoring I wanted for him. Best of all she made my son do homework even before his first lesson. I am confident that Ms. M will help my son improve his ACT scores.


Krystal I. from Florissant, MO

Jane and I have worked together many times, she is great at math she is very patient and passionate as a tutor. I'm more confident in math since Jane has been tutoring me. Jane works according to what fits the client and that's the best way I think anybody can learn. Thanks Jane!!


Hana A. from Saint Louis, MO

Jane was a great tutor, I would specifically recommend her for ACT Math tutoring. Jane is great with numbers and is a math wiz. She did whatever it took for me to succeed including staying longer at the library to tutor me with no extra cost. My ACT composite score went up 1 point after working with Jane.


Nancy O. from Lake Saint Louis, MO

My son enjoys working with you and I think he is pleased with his progress. You are helping him build confidence about taking the ASVAB test. Thank you! April 30th, 2013 Hiring Jane as my son's tutor worked out wonderfully. She had a genuine concern to help him progress and reach his goals. She continually gave him tests to monitor his progress in order to determine which areas needed more attention. My son is doing very well on the practice tests and is now ready for the (real) ASVAB test. Jane was very thorough and always sent a review after each tutoring session. I would highly recommend Jane as your tutor.


Shannon W. from Bridgeton, MO

Jane M. has been wonderful with teaching me about Algebra and Geometry. She is very caring and takes her time to make sure that you understand what you are learning. I would highly recommend Jane!


Nicole P. from Saint Peters, MO

Jane has been helping me with the ACT. I was home-schooled early on in high school and didn't learn a big majority of what was on the ACT but the way Jane teaches it everything makes sense. It's easy to see she cares about her students; at our last tutoring session she told me she would help me try to reach scholarships if she could! The way she teaches is straight and to the point, she always explains when you have questions and won't hesitate to go into details of the inner workings of your subject/test/etc. I highly recommend her and am excited to keep working with her. (I also can't wait to see how my ACT's turn out!)


Alina N. from O Fallon, MO

I am glad to meet Jane, she is an excellent GED/Math tutor. I look forward to our next lesson.


Marquel W. from O Fallon, MO

Amanda C. from Florissant, MO

Jane is amazing. She is very patient and you can truly tell she enjoys tutoring. She makes learning math not so scary! She is the best.


Daphne P. from Saint Louis, MO

UPDATED REVIEW. 2nd REVIEW. Jane,You are truly a Gem and a Jewel! I can't thank you enough for unlocking a part of my daughter's confidence that I have been trying to do since she was a sophomore. All of your sessions have helped her gain confidence in her ability to do better in math which has always been a personal goal of hers. I wish you could have been there when she got her ACT scores. She was ecstatic, and so was I. She could not wait to call you herself (she didn't want me to do it) and share the good news. There may have been a fee for your tutoring services but the results were priceless! Many, Many, Many Thanks! 1st REVIEW I knew by my daughter's smile at the end of her first session that Jane was the right tutor for her. She came totally prepared with a plan of action and worksheets for each subject, very organized, I liked this about her. My daughter feels confident that her ACT scores will definitely improve; she is excited and is always looking forward to her next session with Jane. In just a few short lessons my daughter has already learned math skills that she has been able to put to use immediately. My daughter is excited and I am excited for her. Thanks Jane!


Tom B. from Saint Charles, MO

Jane is tutoring my son for the ASVAB test. She started by giving my son a sample test, grading it and then determining where he needed to sharpen his skills. Jane met him where he was and between the encouragement, homework and focus on the area of improvement he is making great progress. My son is very comfortable with Jane and enjoys his tutoring sessions. I would recommend Jane to anyone!


Trinetta T. from Hazelwood, MO

I was looking for someone to help ASAP because the last tutor schedule was full. My son has been working with Jane M over the past month preparing him for his ACT. My son states she is well organized, proficient and he enjoys working with her. Jane provides feedback after every tutor session to keep me informed on my son's progress. After each session, my son always feels he’s learned some new tips. Thanks so much for assisting.


JENNIFER C. from O Fallon, MO

We met Jane a few months back, what a wonderful lady! She has taken my high school student to the next level, quickly & painlessly. She has a true talent.

She takes the time to explain things on the students level and teaches in a positive and efficient way. Jane has a passion for teaching and her students. I can't imagine where we would be without her. She is worth her weight in gold, if you are struggling with the decision to get tutoring, I guarantee you its worth every penny with Jane.

Jane is a life saver for my son Richard. He is currently studying for the ASVAB. Richard been working with her and he honors and respects her way of tutoring. Jane not only have a detail lesson pattern but she checks his homework. She said it's great to see the progress, her students are understanding their subject matter and she can monitor them mastering the concepts. Richard loves her teaching so much that he refuses to miss any scheduled session and he said he will always complete all his homework assignments. I would say WOW because she has awaken his motivation to learn and pass the ASVAB. Thank you Jane for all you do!!!
