Regardless of your age and level in school you have to learn to teach yourself. I excel at teaching students how to teach themselves so they are successful in any class regardless of the subject. I taught middle and high school science for 13 years with my latest teaching job at a Secondary School in Fairfax County. Subjects I have taught include biology, chemistry, physics, physical science, and earth science. I specialize in developing strong study habits and skills and making the content...

Leslie is great. It is clear she has a lot of teaching experience. She listened and really helped my son. He felt very comfortable with her.

Leslie was an excellent tutor for my son who was a struggling Chemistry student. She can easily determine exactly what areas need to be addressed in order to support a student. She can easily explain material and provides lessons that help a student gain a better understanding of the subject. Leslie truly cares about her students.

Leslie has taught high school and is the mother of teenagers, so she understands them! She was wonderful in not only teaching biology to my son but also in helping him with his organization and study skills. She also took the time to talk to his teacher. I highly recommend Leslie!

Leslie quickly understood my son's current level (starter) in Chemistry and where he was struggling. She met him where he was and helped him understand the concepts at his level. She was also gave him some clever ways to memorize things, which he found very helpful.

My daughter is behind in Chemistry - but Leslie helped her immediately, concisely, and supportively. You will not go wrong with this tutor!

Our Sophmore in high school needs help pulling together what she's learning in order to apply and come to an understanding. After her first lesson we observed more confidence and enthusiasm for chemistry.

Leslie has been an absolute lifesaver and so beneficial to my performance in 10th Grade Chemistry so far this semester. Leslie got me up to speed right off the bat, teaching me about polyatomic ions, bond polarity, how to conduct dimensional analysis, figuring out structural formulas - the list goes on. Prior to lessons with Leslie, I literally had no idea about anything to do with Chemistry, and pretty much just three lessons into her tutoring, I was performing better than any class I am taking currently. I highly recommend Leslie's tutoring, because the feeling of confidence moving forward in the year after gaining the knowledge I have so far through her teaching methods cannot be beat.

She is very prepared and teaches it so smoothly. She helped me with dimensional analysis & it was coherent & I was able to understand it through out the lesson.
