Louise

More than 35 years of experience - From Algebra to AP & IB

I have been a teacher of math for over thirty five years. During those years I have tutored from the young to the IB and AP Calculus students with great success. I have also taught all courses, adapted to changes, and was chosen as a resource specialist to guide teachers from the 6th through 12th grades. Areas include the US, Europe and Latin America. This has expanded my ability to work with a diverse learning group of students. I have created new curriculum, always keeping in mind that the ...

Louise is a very good fit for our daughter. Our daughter has always struggled with math and now with pre-calculus it's even more of a challenge. Louise is very patient and kind. She really cares about her and meets her at her level. Annie is not intimidated to ask questions and feels very comfortable with Louise. Louise really cares that Annie understand the material. Tutoring is the best thing we have done and Louise fits the bill beautifully. I recommend her highly.

Louise has worked with my daughter for 4 weeks and has made an incredible difference in my daughter's understanding of Pre-Calculus. After working with Louise, her test scores jumped 15-20%. Not only did my daughter feel that she had a much better mastery of material, she developed a new confidence and satisfaction with her math experience that she did not have before. Louise had an outstanding understanding of the textbook (and its limitations) that our school uses, and developed her plans around what was needed most. Louise is extremely patient, explains things in a thorough way, and is very supportive of her students. Every session was highly informative and very valuable. Thanks Louise for getting her ready to face her final exam!

I would like to personally thank Louise for your smart and focused work with my daughter. Louise took my daughter's lead, gaining insight as to what it was that she needed. From that starting point I witnessed a collaborative effort to meet a common goal. With the goal of filling in gaps in Algebra I now met as a result of Louise's tutoring my daughter is now able to move forward in her mathematics class with confidence and understanding. She has verbalized "finally getting it". Her words, not mine!

Our son was doing OK in math, but there was something missing. Just as good athletes need a coach to become better, we talked with him and suggested a math coach. Understanding the analogy, he was open to giving it a try – what a difference. He went from good in math to exemplary, recently receiving a merit citation as one of the best 8th grade math students in his middle school – he’s a seventh grader. Besides his teacher, we have to thank Louise. Like a good coach she: 1. Cares about the student; 2. Connects with the student at his/her level; 3. Challenges them to think and understand; 4. Helps build the student’s confidence to where s/he takes ownership of his/her own learning.

Louise is very patient and kind. My daughter is very sensitive about her performance in math and Louise makes her feel comfortable enough to ask questions. I would highly recommend her as a math tutor.


Angela L. from San Carlos, CA

We just had our first session with Louise and my daughter is already feeling much better about our math skills. Louise is very patient and knows how to zero in on the problem areas while working on a progressive lesson plan for future learning.


Gil L. from San Carlos, CA

Our son had a wonderful tutoring experience with Louise. She went out of her way to accommodate his schedule, despite being very busy herself. Our son learned so much from Louise during his tutoring sessions that he referred to her as a "Math Goddess." We are very thankful that we found Louise and highly recommend her to others.


Brian O. from Belmont, CA

Louise gave our son the confidence he needed for his final exam. They worked together on the pre calculus review packet. Louise moved quickly through material our son had mastered and quickly picked up on material he needed extra support. They were able to cover a lot of material in short periods of time. Thank you Louise!


Susan V. from Pittsburgh, PA

Louise helped me with some basic principles of Calculus and we went over some practice problems. I really liked her style of teaching, it really meshed will with how I learn. I think she's able to pick up very quickly how each person learns and then adjust her style accordingly. I wish I'd found her 2 months ago when I started my class! I highly recommend Louise for student of all levels.


Ian C. from Redwood City, CA

Louise is an excellent tutor. She has a great depth of understanding of mathematics and a wonderful way of explaining concepts and encouraging students to do their best. I would recommend her to anyone.


Debra P. from Redwood City, CA

She taught my daughter, a high school junior Pre Calc! My daughter found her very easy to understand and easy taught new formulas to figure out problems that she didn't know.


Judith R. from San Carlos, CA

My son masters his last test after working together with Louise. He really feels like her former teacher experience, combined with her pre Calc knowledge, make her the perfect tutor.


Lisa W. from Redwood City, CA

Thank you Louise! Your depth of knowledge really helped to quickly prepare my daughter for her upcoming test! She earned 100% on the exam!
