When our son started to fail his algebra 2 class we turned to WyzAnt to find a math tutor. I interviewed 4 tutors and asked 2 of them to come for a paid session with my son. Brenda was available next day. She spent 1.5 hrs with him and we saw an immediate improvement in his score from 57 to 81. We asked our son for feedback between two tutors and he said that he would like to continue working with Brenda. Brenda has been meeting with him since then once a week. She is responsive and gets back to you right away by phone or email. Brenda is very pleasant to work with, always smiling and laughing, which puts kids at ease. During her sessions I can hear my son asking clarifying questions, he is engaged and focused. My son's grades improved this semester considerably and we are very grateful to Brenda for her work.

She is in the process of covering SAT material especially in math. She is able to present the subject matter in an easy to understand manner. She brings to the table the ability to put all of her years of experience and knowledge in an organized manner to better help understand the topics covered.

Brenda was extremely responsive from day 1 of contact which allowed for services to begin immediately. She provided geometry tutoring for a student completing an online course and was able to quickly establish a solid rapport. She broke down the material in a way that the student understood. Brenda brought hands-on materials in order to reinforce the concepts being taught. Brenda has a very calm demeanor and was supportive to the student.

I can't say enough good things about Brenda. She is everything you're looking for in a tutor. She is professional, knowledgeable, kind, and patient. Her true goal is her student's success. I've been working with her for several months and am very happy with the progress I've made in understanding math concepts. Brenda is helping me prepare for the middle school math praxis exam, but I'm sure she would be an excellent tutor in any area of mathematics. If you're choosing a math tutor, you could not make a better decision than to work with Brenda!

We met today for our first lesson. I am very happy with how today went and am looking forward to continuing with Brenda. She is very knowledgeable about the test and materials.
