Teresa G. from Summit, NJ
After his first session, our college age son told me to rate Karin with 5 STARS and he scheduled his next session for double the time. We're very pleased with his sudden enthusiasm.
Mary V. from Florham Park, NJ
Karin is prompt, reliable and able to pick up quickly on the PSAT troubling questions my son got wrong. What I really liked about her was when she explained something, she would ask if my son understood it and he always said "yes". She then created her own problem on the fly and asked him to solve it to see if he truly understood (which he didn't). I know he'll do well on his math class this year.
Tyler D. from Morris Plains, NJ
Karin made herself available within hours of notifying her about tutoring. The lesson went really great with a 2 thumbs up from my son (who really did not want to work with a tutor). He left understanding the topic with strong confidence. We are looking forward to future lessons and to see progress in my son's learning. Great tutor!
Ellen M. from Summit, NJ
Karin was very helpful and took the time to understand her individual needs. We look forward to seeing Karin on a regular basis.

I just had my first session with Karin today. I am someone who's very ambitious with a lot of goals in mind, and I tend to do a lot of research and am very picky with a tutor for a certain subject goal I have in mind. Karin absolutely fit the bill in regards to what I was looking for for College Algebra. She was eager, confident, and very helpful in all of my uber-specific goals. Not to mention, patient as well! Looking forward to more sessions with her.
Lynn A. from Caldwell, NJ
