Erica is great. She takes a lot of time with her students and you can tell she has a love for teaching. I highly recommend her.

We are early in our relationship with Erika, but I can already tell she will be my daughters’ saving grace. She has been struggling with biology but thought she would be able to get through it on her own. At Spring break I decided she needed outside help and was told, by a friend, about WyzAnt. Erika was the first on the list of biology tutors and now I know why. I expressed my concerns to Erika about my daughters’ grade and ability to pass biology. Erika completely understood and said she would be able to help her understand the fundamentals of biology so she would do better on her tests. After two meetings with her, my daughter received her first 'A' on her quiz!!! We were so excited and are looking forward to continuing regular tutoring with Erika! My daughter loves meeting with her and is so happy we decided to hire her.

We are so grateful to have found Erica. She made room in her busy Saturday schedule to accommodate our son for AP Bio tutoring. We were very impressed with her professionalism and her thoroughness. Erica is a very competent and enthusiastic tutor. Not only she is knowledgeable in biology, but she also does a great job of explaining things. She has helped my son understand biology and gain confidence in class. We strongly recommend Erica to any parent looking for a biology tutor for their kid.

We were lucky to find Erica. She responded quickly on short notice and really made an effort to work with our schedule. She is warm, thoughtful, and very professional. We would certainly put her name on the top of the list if we need tutoring again in the future.

Erica is very patient and understands the subject matter and how to teach it. My son is taking AP Biology and she was immediately able to help him raise his grade.
Tom T. from Newport Beach, CA
Our 14 year old has been working with Erica for several weeks. We are very impressed not only with her substantive knowledge, but also her patience and ability to communicate difficult concepts to a young student (and concerned parents). We value her time, flexibility and enthusiasm for helping young students master difficult material. A proper approach like Erica's can be the difference between being an enthusiastic and educated student versus a puzzled and frustrated student. In short, Erica's excellent.

Erica was very helpful to my daughter who needed help with Honors Biology. She is very detailed-oriented with the lesson and she is very prepared!
Sharon G. from Orange, CA
Erica genuinely cares about helping her students succeed. She is by far the best tutor we have ever used. Her knowledge in the subject of biology is impressive. As a bonus, she is encouraging and enthusiastic. So grateful to have found such a wonderful person and tutor!!
Shahi R. from Newport Coast, CA
Erica is a great AP Biology tutor. I looked for a few weeks for an AP Bio tutor. My son felt comfortable from the first visit. Erica knows the AP Bio material and has lots of additional resources from review books to educational video links to help the students learn. She is positive and a great motivator. She is a bright gem.
Raman D. from Chino Hills, CA
My daughter was doing pretty badly on her Hons. Biology class. Thanks to Ms. Erica her grades started improving 2 weeks into her lessons. Excellent tutor!!
Spiro K. from Orange, CA
Erica is an excellent Biology tutor. Not only is she highly qualified, but she takes her time to make sure you understand the material. She will even make practice exams especially tailored for you to help you prepare for your tests. I highly recommend her.
Cynthia L. from Irvine, CA
Erica has a passion for science. It is obvious she enjoys teaching. My daughter is in Integrated Science in High School. Erica first few lessons were 2 hours long. Which was too much time and information for my daughter. We had to ask her to scale down her explanation and keep the information to one hour. Erica was very understanding and changed her content. I am happy to say that the tutor sessions are effective. My daughter was able to bring up her grades. We are hopeful that her grades will continue to improve with Erica’s tutoring next semester.
Angela E. from Irvine, CA
My daughter found herself confused before a big test and Erica worked her schedule to accommodate ours. She explained exactly what was needed and really knew all aspects of "respiration and photosynthesis", drawing helpful diagrams while teaching. We look forward to regular sessions with her to keep ahead of the biology curriculum and feel confident in the material. She was so helpful.
