I am currently accepting students in-person and online.

I have a couple of random evening times for ?math emergencies.? I have morning and early afternoon times. Due to the time difference, this works very well for East Coast students online.

A bit about me...
I didn't start out with the thought of being a teacher. I followed my heart...my passion for math. I have a Master of Science in Teaching Mathematics and I emphasize the teaching. I have been teaching at the college level ...

Madison said the session was very eye opening. After just one session she gained a lot. We definitely will be scheduling another session soon.

Terese is a fantastic tutor and in weeks she achieved an incredible turnaround with my daughter's grade, attitude, and thinking about Pre-calculus. We were in an incredibly difficult situation. My daughter was flunking math and she had only weeks to go or it would affect her university entrance. I was desperate to find a new tutor after a series of failed ones. I thought it might be impossible and we were already starting to think about whether we should sign our daughter up for a community college course during the summer. Against all odds Terese was able to change my daughter's defeatest attitude and her grade. I once saw my daughter's math homework after she had taken up with Terese and it was neat and orderly, all the numbers were in a row. Terese had obviously trained my daughter so thoroughly that she was even writing out the forumulas differently. It was a reflection of the organization that Terese was able to instill in my daughter's thinking, an approach to math that was evident in her exam scores as well. As I saw the improvement all I could think was, "What if I had found Terese when my daughter started having troubles in junior year when she started having problems, instead of the string of failed tutors?" IF you are reading this review now, and are in a simliarly desperate situation but your child is in sophomore or junior year or even the beginning of Senior year I wish I could have been as lucky as you and found Terese then, but honestly, I still thank my lucky stars for finding her when we did. Truly, what an amazing turnaround.

My daughter has been studying Algebra II for two months with Terese and couldn't be happier! Terese makes the material easy and relatable, and is super encouraging, positive, and patient. She is a great gift to our family! Thank you, Terese!

She has done a great job filling in the gaps and helping my daughter catch up in her high school honors math class. We will continue working with her to make sure she doesn't fall behind again!

Great session! Audrey enjoyed the lesson. The sessions with Terese have benefited her grades and has also helped her confidence. Thank you Terese!
- Jennifer B. from Matthews, NC
Great session! Audrey learned so much. She enjoyed her time and understood the concepts. Your help will benefit her grades and confidence. Thank you Terese!

Terese is awesome. I reached out in desperation as my daughter has a midterm in two days. Terese was able to meet. Even better is that my daughter had a great time in the session. That says a lot as math is her least favorite subject. Thank you Terese!
- Jennifer B. from Matthews, NC
She helped me in math and CBEST test . I am a visual learner and she will keep trying until I understand what I am doing. She will find a way for me to understand and is willing to go above and beyond to make sure I am successful. Highly recommended.
- Yolanda Z. from Jarbidge, NV
My daughter had a ?math emergency ? and Ms Therese was her savior! She not only helped with her exercises (due in 2 days) but also gave her extra materials. My daughter said she was the best math tutor ever. I will definitely have more sessions with her. Recommend her 100%. Obs. Wanted to add that my daughter is taking 8th grade classes and using IXL. Thanks Ms Therese!!
- Andrea W. from Miami Beach, FL
great teacher with a wonderful sense of humor and tremendous patience. My daughter loves her. I cannot recommend her enough. She is kind and punctual. we are happy to have found her.
- Nandita G. from Portland, OR
It was easy for my daughter to get the extra help she needed. Terese is easy for her to connect with and she understands how to explain problems so they become clear.
- Cheryl T. from Portland, OR
We set up a session for our daughter with Terese S., who was quite expensive. We made a mistake as to the time and she indicated we could reschedule later but then she went ahead and charged us for the full amount without any new session. Guess I was the one who got taught.
- Jim C. from Denver, CO
I found Terese for my senior in high school who was struggling with Precalc. Terese had a great session with her, and I am sure we are going to use her again for another "math emergency". Highly recommended.
- Jeff D. from Ashland, MA
She is wonderful! Very friendly and easy to communicate with! She always got right back to our requests. She helped my daughter with AP Calculus. We are so happy we found her!! Highly recommend her.
- Kristy M. from Portland, OR
Took your advice and signed up for Magoosh. Thank you for the suggestion. Looks like there?s plenty of material to help.
- Sara O. from Vancouver, WA
Battle math with Mom no more! Terese was engaging, patient and effective! Very flexible with her time and super responsive. Plan on having her for the rest of the year (and into next with Calc). Highly recommend her for tutoring.
- Susie P. from Portland, OR
Our daughter needed to reinforce her knowledge in preparation for an exam. Terese got right to it, was very thorough, fun and warmed up to her in the first 10 minutes giving her confidence to ask questions and revisit weak areas. Highly recommend!
- Mary M. from Chesterfield, VA
Very helpful and clear. Learned a lot. Explained binomial theorem so I understood it. Hope to keep working together. Thank you.
- Ryan L. from New Rochelle, NY
My daughter has been struggling with Pre-calc and very unhappy all year. After just ONE HOUR with Terese, she came to me and said, ?It all makes sense now!? She is so relieved and so much happier!
- Kim E. from West Linn, OR
Like all other reviews, I can only verify that Terese is not only smart, energetic, and engaging but MOST importantly she connects with her students allowing them to move beyond the learned process to become more confident boosting ones self-confidence and self-esteem. Hat off to you, Terese!
