Aspergers
I have an MEd in Special Ed. I've been a case manager at the High School and Middle School level. Many of my students have been coded with Aspergers or PDD of various sorts. I have worked at a private special ed school in Concord, which specializes in helping students with Aspergers. And I worked for years in the high tech industry, most recently as a technical writer, and worked closely with many adults who were very likely Aspergers. I do "get it". :-) And I know how to communicate and teach students who struggle with other teachers.

Student had consistently struggled with Math ranging from D's to B's in private and public grades 1-8. We saw a steady increase in grades once Louise started her tutoring. I am pleased that the student as a Freshman in a private college prep High School is now confident and has secured two A's. When approached by teacher to move to Honors, the student simply stated, "Not right now, I want to feel what it is like to finally get an A in Math." Thank you!

Louise is a great tutor. She is accommodating, understanding, and very patient. She is doing a wonderful job with my daughter. She is doing better in school.

As an adult learner, I came to Louise needing assistance to refresh and relearn algebra so that I could prepare for standardized testing. I was very pleased at her level of knowledge as well as her ability to deliver content in an effective manner. I felt very comfortable and at ease with her professional yet easygoing demeanor. I was especially pleased with her effective documentation, in which she kept accurate records indicating what we went over during tutoring sessions, and what we needed to work on for future sessions. I wouldn't hesitate to use Louise in the future, and would recommend her to family and friends who needed tutoring of any kind. She is a knowledgeable and talented tutor who provided me with a successful learning experience!
Abel F. from Nashua, NH
I am 27 years old in the process of joining the Navy. I was looking for a tutor to assist me with math knowledge and arithmetic reasoning and found a couple of places before running into this website. The other places were too expensive for me and required a specific schedule during my work hours, But after creating my account on WyzAnt and looking for the available tutors in my area, I ran into Louise K’s profile and emailed her with more details on what I was looking for. Shortly after sending her my information on what I was looking for, she contacted me by email giving me some details on how she could help. We set up a meeting 3 minutes away from my house at Barnes and Noble and spoke about everything and got to an agreement on the dates and times and what we would work on during our sessions. Louise K was always available and super flexible with the schedule we set up, making it easy for me to complete these classes. She is super knowledgeable, patient, funny and responsible was never late and never cancelled our classes. She was able to explain all the subjects I needed help with in a timely manner, explaining everything in different way: graphics and examples until I felt confident on doing some examples myself. She would send me home with some homework and review the material in our next class, plenty of material to work with. Because of her past experience, it was truly a customized program created for me. I’m extremely grateful for everything we were able to cover in the short amount of time we worked together. I feel confident and will be taking my ASVAB test soon. I now see a huge improvement on my practice scores and am excited to see my score in the actual test since I was getting 30%, 40%, 50% at the beginning and now I’m getting 80%, 85% and just yesterday scored a 90% on 1 of my Math Knowledge practice test. So ,if you are an adult and feel you need refresher for the ASVAB or any test, or have kids that need help with specific subjects, I would highly recommend contacting Louise, you will not regret 1 class. You will always feel a step closer to your goal in each session, so don’t waste more time looking in other websites and expensive schools. Contact Louise ASAP for more details on how she can help you. P.S. She has this amazing talent of writing upside down - it's incredible!

Louise is very patient, creative and has a great depth of knowledge. She provides a detailed summary of each session which is very helpful. We enjoy having her come each week.
Madge S. from Brookline, NH
Louise was wonderful to work with! She offered useful and unique approaches to teaching organizational skills. Her session write ups were filled with incredible detail so I really knew what was going on without even being part of the tutoring session. She was easy to communicate with via email. She was also flexible in meeting locations. My son enjoyed his tutoring sessions with Louise because she is smart and has a great sense of humor.
Barbara P. from Bedford, NH
Louise has been tutoring my high school Freshman in Honors Algebra for the past several months. In that time my daughter's grade steadily improved to an A-. She feels more confident in her math ability and is able to do her homework independently. Prior to Louise’s help, she was consistently asking for help and felt anxious and stressed about her ability to keep up in class. Louise is very professional; she is prompt and prepared for each session. She has a very calm demeanor and approaches each assignment methodically. She is able to calmly work through difficult assignments so that my daughter learns the material. After she teaches the information and helps her to work through one problem, she will let her work through subsequent problems more independently so that she demonstrates that she has learned the material. It is obvious that Louise loves to teach and she is very good at it. She does not get frustrated if she needs to repeat lessons or instructions. Although she also tutors special needs children, she has been very effective at the honors level. I would recommend Louise to math students of all levels!
Joyce S. from Windham, NH
Louise has been very helpful to my daughter. She has the ability to explain solutions that could not be discussed in class. Very happy with her.
Shobana S. from Amherst, NH
Excellent teacher. Very patient and puts across concepts simply and clearly. Encourages understanding of basic principles, good approach to problem solving. Strongly recommend.
Tricia H. from Nashua, NH
Louise is an amazing tutor. She is thorough, well prepared and very engaging. She tutored my rising 7th grade son in English Grammar and Math and my rising high school freshman Algebra. They both have shown vast improvement. Louise customized the lessons for each of my sons and did research in her own time in ways to better help them. I highly encourage anyone to hire her.
Tamie C. from Nashua, NH
She helped Joshua understand the steps in Ch. 10 as we end the school year, and prepare for next year.

Brittany got a 90 on the cell quiz - she is encouraged. Drawing the cells on the board really helped her!
