Julie

Nira R. from Saratoga, CA

Julie has been tutoring my son for the last month or so in chemistry honors. He says she's a great teacher and explains things in a very clear, simple way. She's always on time and is very professional. She seems to truly care about my sons progress. We're very happy with her and I'm hoping my son will get a good grade in this class.

Ping Z. from Cupertino, CA

My daughter has skipped her 9th grade Bio Class and jumped into Chem class this year. At the beginning it was quite a challenge for her because her teacher is very demanding and she doesn't seem to grasp the ideas the teacher was trying to convey. Julie has spent some time with my daughter and after a month and half my daughter's confidence level has significantly improved and her understanding of Chem concepts has improved significantly. Of course, so has her performance in the class. We are really happy about the work Julie has done. Thanks Julie!!

Margie K. from Mountain View, CA

Julie tutored my son for his honors chemistry class. During the handful of sessions he had with Julie, she was able to explain and clarify the more challenging concepts that were confusing to him. In addition, she would follow-up immediately with additional information and sample questions to build on the tutoring session. Julie was always on time and well-prepared to begin each session. I would highly recommend her for those requiring tutoring in chemistry.

Viresh P. from Fremont, CA

Not reliable. She came one hour late first time, and second time she did not even show up. We were waiting for her for tutoring on Sunday, and she did not show up, even though we called her few times. She did not even answer.

Krishna S. from Salinas, CA

Julie is a superb AP Chemistry tutor with uncommon teaching techniques. While simplifying complex concepts, she separates the important from mundane, and inculcates in the students a quiet sense of confidence. This confidence allows the students to do exceptionally well in the classroom that in turn feeds their confidence on the AP exam. While being gentle, she also is a tough task master. I am not sure who suggested her as a tutor but I am in their debt. All in all, an exceptional find. Thank you, Julie.

Brian W. from Sunnyvale, CA

She really is a chemist by training and knows her stuff! She wants every student to do very well and to get excited about the field. She is genuinely interested in the progress of student. She will assign and review extra problem sets, and even make time for extra sessions if she sees a deficiency. She is accessible by email for additional questions. Our son had a very demanding and confusing teacher, and she rose to this challenge.

Rashmi K. from Union City, CA

Julie is very knowledgeable and patient, she has a great grasp on concepts. She is patient and works well with teenagers. I would recommend her for AP chemistry to anyone.

Karen W. from San Jose, CA

Julie is a very professional tutor who comes prepared and is very knowledgeable. She provides lots on on line resources and is available to students via email between lessons.

LISA W. from Los Altos, CA

My child was interested in self-studying for the AP exam, but thought it would be helpful to get in one or two sessions for an overview. Julie was magnificently prepared with curriculum materials, websites, and pertinent study topics. She was able to answer any question my child had. We highly recommend her.

Kevin G. from Sunnyvale, CA

My son is taking Chemistry Honors at an elite private high school. Julie has helped him tremendously, preparing him for tests and stepping through complex topics. Since he began working with Julie, he has increased his course grade level and understanding of chemistry. Julie is an expert in chemistry and has an ability to explain complex scientific concepts. She tracks the chemistry curriculum of local public and private area high schools and knows the key concepts students need to grasp in order to do well. She is conscientious and on time. I definitely recommend her for tutoring Honors or AP level chemistry.

Milind D. from San Jose, CA

Julie removed the fear of Chemistry from my daughter's mind. Julie pushed her to work hard. Initially my daughter did not like that but as she saw the test results improve, she loved it. Julie was well prepared - she came with models, supporting material, additional test problems. She was always on time, and accommodated schedule changes easily. I highly recommend her.

Jyoti S. from Los Altos, CA

My son really enjoys being tutored by Julie. She reviews the material very thoroughly and hopefully he will do well in his SAT 2 chemistry. She works with him and makes sure he understands his work. I recommend her.

Geetha S. from Pleasanton, CA

Julie is a great tutor and her passion for chemistry really shows when teaching the student. She really cares about the student and their progress. It is very easy to reach her and she makes the student feel comfortable enough to email her everyday with questions. She definitely puts 100% effort in what she is doing. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Rita A. from Los Altos, CA

Julie is dedicated & thorough and works hard to meet goals. We are very happy with the extra attention she gave my son. Grades went up and stayed up. I highly recommend her!

Robert M. from Los Altos, CA

Julie did a fantastic job tutoring our son in Chem AP. She is well prepared and explained the material clearly. Would highly recommend Julie.

Alexander E. from Mountain View, CA

Julie arrived on time and was very professional throughout the lesson. She knows her stuff and we are delighted to have her as an AP Chem tutor. I am confident she will make a difference.

Nicole B. from San Jose, CA

Julie is by far one of the best tutors I have ever had. She is extremely patient and comes completely prepared with lecture material for each session. She explains all material thoroughly and is wonderful! Very happy with her.

Melanie N. from San Jose, CA

My son was struggling with AP Chem in the 2nd semester. Ms. Julie started tutoring my son in February. By the end of April, my son grade improved to A-. Thanks Ms. Julie for your patience and dedication.

Rommel C. from Hayward, CA

Julie tutored my son in AP Chemistry. She is an expert on the subject matter. She is methodical in her approach and adjusted her style of teaching to my son's way of learning. On her first visit, she helped my son understand the areas that were confusing to him in school. She breaks out the concepts in small parts in a way that can be easily understood. She came once a week yet follows through on each assignment and course work during the week. She helps develop discipline and got my son used to presenting step by step calculation rather than just the final calculation. She gives a good amount of homework. She is generous with her knowledge and even provided insight on SAT. Her first goal is to make sure the kid learns. She works hard to make sure that every penny spent is worth it. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a tutor. She is also a very nice person. She cares and that is important! After her tutoring, my son became confident with his knowledge that he plans to take Chemistry for his SAT subject test in addition to Math. 5 stars to Julie.

Liz T. from San Jose, CA

After learning Julie's educational background, I was a little worried that she would teach above my daughter's capabilities. My daughter is a 10th grader at a public school in San Jose and was having difficulties in her Honors Chemistry class--not AP chem, not college chem. However, Julie was able to explain concepts and work through examples at my daughter's level. She was also very positive and boosted my daughter's confidence. Julie was very accommodating and worked with my daughter for 2 intense weekends before her final exam--I only wish we had started earlier.

Mary M. from Palo Alto, CA

Julie worked with my daughter who was taking an Honors Chemistry course and not learning much from her teacher at school. Julie quickly assessed my daughter's level of understanding and began preparing review lessons for my daughter. Julie is incredibly professional. Each time my daughter arrived Julie was well-prepared. She created challenging quizzes for my daughter and provided extra assignments for my daughter to complete outside of the tutoring sessions. Julie is a very kind and patient person. She is able to exhibit kindness while at the same time having high expectations for her students. My daughter ended up having a deep understanding of chemistry and doing very well in her Chemistry Class. I would recommend Julie to any serious student.

Purvi G. from Sunnyvale, CA

Julie was well prepared when she came. She also gave extra material for review. The whiteboard really helped in understanding. My daughter is more confident after the first lesson. Thanks Julie!

Mitzi M. from Atherton, CA

Julie goes above and beyond a normal tutor's help. She responds via email or phone immediately and has incredible follow-up.

Sahana P. from Saratoga, CA

Julie just started tutoring our daughter, who is taking AP chem is try classes in high school. We have been very happy with Julie's professionalism and her teaching methods. She has been sending our daughter practice tests throughout the day and late into the night to help her get prepared for the mid term.We are glad that we found her on WyzAnt.

Shalmali B. from Sunnyvale, CA

After having given up on 2 other cookie-cutter tutors that did not workout for me (who were not worth even half-their fee), I approached Julie after being forcefully nudged by a good friend (senior) who strongly recommended her. From my very first meeting and class with her, I knew I have not only just found my tutor but an inspirational science lover with a passion for teaching. She is engaging, highly organized, methodical and systematic (of course very strict to keep me on track!). She was quick to study my class-work, home-work and understand my strengths and weakness and identify where I needed help.

Maanik S. from Sunnyvale, CA

Excellent teacher. I feel like my son is in good hands. Thanks Julie for accommodating Maanik at the short notice

Theresa S. from San Jose, CA

Julie has been able to help my son's grade improve two grade levels in AP Chemistry. Julie has taught my son concepts that were assumed he knew from honors Chemistry (which he didn't take) which has helped him get up to speed and in sync with his class at a rapid pace.

Nina P. from Cupertino, CA

My daughter taking the Honor level Chemistry without foundation in Chemistry was having a trouble. Julie was good fit for my daughter because Julie found out what she was lack at and explain basic and also advanced concept to her at the same time. Looking forward to have long term regular lesson with Julie!

Sonia B. from San Mateo, CA

Julie is working with my daughter on AP Chemistry. Although we came to Julie at 2nd the start of the 2nd semester,Julie has managed to bring my daughter up to speed y working diligently and in a positive way, to get her to the advanced level needed to pass the class and the AP subject test. I have high hopes that my daughter will succeed and have a clear understanding of the concepts needed to pass the class with high marks. Julie is patient and methodical in her teachings, something that my daughter needs to get her out of her slump.

r s. from New Rochelle, NY

Julie is a knowledgeable, patient and persistent tutor. She has coached my daughter in Honors Chem and has really helped her master the course, not only scoring at the highest levels in exams, but she now loves the subject she used to dread when the year started. Julie is fully committed once she takes up working with a student and adjusts her schedule to get the best outcome for the student.

Joanne C. from Morgan Hill, CA

Julie has managed to get our reluctant AP Chem son on board with revision and practice. She felt his reluctance was lack of confidence and how right Julie was. He is producing much better work, taking his time and almost beginning to enjoy chemistry! Well done Julie! Patient, kind, phenomenally organized and by far the best tutor in any subject we have EVER had!

Sheryl B. from Sunnyvale, CA

My child started with Ms. Julie recently. He likes her positive feedback and can do attitude and has gained confidence in Chemistry pretty rapidly. She knows her material well and is passionate about it.

Marty Y. from Redwood City, CA

My son benefitted greatly from his interaction with Julie and he actually asked for more visits, which is a rare occurrence for him!

Udey C. from Saratoga, CA

Julie has really helped my son Aditya improve in Chemistry over the two years we had her for Chemistry Honors and Ap Chemistry. Aditya over the two years has been able to understand chemistry much better with Julie and her teaching style. From homework emails throughout the week to one on one private tutoring lessons, she has really make sure Aditya has enough practice and application of Chemistry concepts so that he can thoroughly understand any concept. She ensures that he understands the material and will go back and review with him anything he forgets to make sure he is on top of everything and gets a firm grasp of the subject. For Aditya, Julie is the chemistry teacher he never had at school.

Chris L. from Cupertino, CA

Julie is dedicated and spent time to explain the fundamentals to my daughter in detail. She is on the right path in improving her chemistry knowledge which resulted in much improved test scores in her last two exams. Thank you Julie.
