I have asked many of my friends for help including my two past professors, none of them are able to "communicate" to a level where I "understand". It is amazing. 6 months with my two professors and nothing but frustration & confusion. In the very short time I have spent with Joyce I am miles past where I was stuck in such a short time. Highly recommend!! (Wish I had her as my professor through all of my education)


Lili V. from Tacoma, WA

Joyce is really great at adapting lessons to meet my son's needs. She works at his pace and finds ways to convey the information to him in a manner in which he can understand the material. Her patience and love for kids is evident.


Michael P. from Puyallup, WA

Thank you so much for helping my son with his assignments. He has made progress in Math with your guidance and I am so grateful. I understand the scheduling conflicts and time constraints that exist and appreciate the effort on your part to accommodate him. I know has worked hard and you have done a great job as his tutor. It was nice talking to you, too. Thank you.

Joyce creates an environment that allows my child to truly grasp concepts that she does not get in school. Joyce offers new ideas, and sits one on one with her to make sure she offers any support needed. She has a special way with her students. We are blessed to have her in the journey of high school.


Wendy J. from Tacoma, WA

My son and daughter both enjoyed studying with Mrs. Joyce. My son said: "Mrs. Joyce is best tutor ever," even though this is his first time being tutored. My daughter said: "Mrs. Joyce is really nice and patient. I like her." It is really important that my kids feel a connection with their daughter. That will help them feel comfortable studying with her.


Judy R. from Roy, WA

She is kind, serious, and attentive to my student's needs. She is concerned about her student and is doing a good job thus far.


Dora K. from Tacoma, WA

I needed some help with math, I have been having a hard time understanding written problems, she taught me step by step how solve those problems. She made sure I understood those math problems and we practiced them so I knew exactly how to solve them.


Imelda P. from Tacoma, WA

Joyce was extremely help and a great tutor for my daughter. She explained Chemistry and Algebra in a way that it would be easier to understand.


Genevieve N. from Lakewood, WA

Joyce is a wonderful teacher who explained difficult material to our daughter; she is knowledgeable about learning disorders. She inspired our daughter to focus on her schoolwork with fresh interest. We initially hired Joyce to work with our daughter over Christmas break, but we plan to continue with Joyce through the academic year.


Katherine P. from Tacoma, WA

She broke down the concept of graphing down into smaller pieces and that helped me understand the steps better. Thank you!


Nicole P. from Graham, WA

In a day's time she has given my son a lot of confidence! He doesn't open up easily & he loved her! He wants to continue to see her!


Bruce S. from Tacoma, WA

She's very understanding and knows how to explain math concepts in a simple way. She's been extremely patient with Fiona.


Yorleny C. from Lakewood, WA

Joyce has been a great help for my daughter. Last year, after a few weeks my daughter was struggling in math, Joyce help her to pass from C's and one D to B's and A's.


Rachel D. from Lakewood, WA

Joyce is very caring and has given good recommendations for my daughter and her school. I think she will be very helpful in the future.


Carol M. from Lakewood, WA

This was the first day, but she was warm and friendly. My son was comfortable with her, and she was knowledgeable with the area of math he is currently working. So, again, this was the first day.


Shekinah L. from Lakewood, WA

I have a better understanding of what is being taught in my geometry class, thanks to Ms. Joyce. I have a great time studying with her and practicing problems.
