I currently tutor elementary school students in Mathematics, English, Science and Social Studies. Social Studies is the study of history. I make all the elementary school subjects fun for kids to learn. In addition to working in the text book and with handouts, I use games and current events to help students understand what they are studying in a fun way, which helps with retention.

Super Susyn took all the anxiety out of math for my daughter, both in her attitude and in her approach to each problem. Solved!
Linda G. from Santa Monica, CA
Susyn, per my daughter was an extremely knowledgeable tutor who was so helpful with her college econ class. She is very patient tutor who explained things in a very understandable way. I would highly recommend her.
Susie W. from Los Angeles, CA
My daughter worked with Susyn while in LA for Pilot Season and doing online high school. Susyn was courteous, on time and patient. I would recommend her and if we find ourselves back out in LA again and in need of a tutor, we would definitely use Susyn again. Very professional and a pleasure to work with!
Lori Z. from Scotts Valley, CA
Susyn helped my daughter catch up in Algebra 1 and prepare for her semester final. She's very efficient, thorough and patient in explaining the concepts. I was impressed, and my daughter was very grateful!
Luba B. from San Mateo, CA
I worked with Susyn in order to gain confidence to get back into the work environment and and to gain additional computer skills. Susyn worked with me on Microsoft projects, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook. Specifically, meeting my goals. Susyn's methods are exceptional and high level and effective. She also makes learning fun. Her interpersonal skills are a pleasure to be with. She is always inspiring and positive and has an exceptional communication style as well as a wealth of knowledge. I feel very grateful for having Susyn as my tutor through Wyzant. Thank you.
Zia A. from Redwood City, CA
We hired Susyn for our daughter for Algebra 2 and AS Chemistry and were very happy with her tutoring. We would defintely recommend her for anyone looking for a tutor for a high school student.
Joy H. from Palo Alto, CA
Explains concepts well and is very patient with student. Tries different approaches to reach student understanding and spends extra time as necessary.
Erica P. from San Jose, CA
It would be inappropriate to comment on the tutoring skills of Ms. Susyn D. because she did not show up on time as promised.
Dennis H. from Redwood City, CA
Susyn has been working with our 16 year old daughter for the past 3 months. Over that time we have seen a steady improvement in her grades and in her confidence for which we are grateful.
Susan B. from Redwood City, CA
Prior to this year, my son had difficulties within several courses and the tutors being used were ineffective. This year with Susyn has been tremendously helpful, the errors that were occurring in previous semesters are currently diminished or non-existent. The classes before this semester ended with failing grades, his grades since using Susyn have been A's or B's -- a very welcome change! College classes (and classes in general) can be difficult and learning speeds in the classroom vary from student to student. Susyn has been able to help my son in ways his college classes/professors could not. A+ Tutor!
Jamie P. from Palo Alto, CA
Due to a busy sports schedule at Paly, my daughter missed a handful of geometry classes last fall. A few low test scores later, her confidence in the subject was completely shaken. We tried two other tutors before we found Susyn, so let me save you the trouble: hire Susyn. She is a very clear communicator whose teaching style helps kids learn to solve problems on their own. We found her to be punctual and reliable and she really put my daughter at ease. I highly recommend her in this topic!
Jennifer H. from Torrance, CA
My grade continues to be an A in this class. Susyn is truly helping me to get through all homework assignments. Looking forward to discussing final projects.
