While as a paid, private tutor, my business is new, I am not new to tutoring and enhancing one's educational experience. Beyond knowing the subject matter, I also know how to work with kids of all ages and backgrounds, and I understand what how to experiment with different learning methods until we find the right one. Every tutoring session is a judgement-free zone where failure doesn't exist, only learning and improving! All students are welcomed regardless of language barriers or learning disabilities. Not only am I available after school hours, but I'm also available all day! So whether your student is home schooled or suspended for the day and needs someone to help keep them on track, I've got your back! I believe all students deserve an equal opportunity for education, and sometimes that can't be met in a classroom setting. At the same time, I don't believe there's such thing as a "bad student", only a student whose educational needs aren't being met. Online and in-person sessions are both available to meet your student's needs and your family's budget. "Emergency" tutoring sessions can always be arranged when the unexpected arises. Discounts for full day tutoring sessions are available and can be discussed depending on your needs. I'm always one phone call, text, or email away!

I did not receive any refund for the poor quality of service. I want to make this clear so there is no misunderstanding that I was given a full refund. I am not going to argue further, but I do want to note that at $60 an hour, students should receive full attention, not have it split between online teaching and in-person instruction.

We had a fantastic experience with Lisa. My oldest was applying to middle schools in Washington…read morethat were very competitive to get into and required our daughter to do the SSAT test. She was underprepared and we only had a few months to get ready. Lisa met with my daughter 10 times over a few months and dramatically improved her scores and confidence. She did this with incredible kindness and empathy for the stress of the process my daughter was going through. I would highly recommend Lisa to any parent whose child is preparing for the SSAT (or SAT for that matter).

My family has had the good fortune to work with Mazor Test Prep on tutoring for the ISEE entrance…read moreexam when my children were in 5th grade and applying to private schools, on the AP exams as they made their journey through high school, and on the SATs as they prepared for college. The proof is in their success-my kids scored in the high 80 and 90 percentiles on their ISEEs, were accepted to their private schools of choice, and earned 5s on AP Physics and Calculus exams. My son is a senior, and with Lisa's guidance, achieved a 1530 on the SAT, missing only one math question-no superscore, just one test. Thus far, he has not been turned down by any of the top-tier engineering programs to which he has applied. My younger child is now working diligently with Lisa to maximize his SAT scores as he prepares for college applications in the fall. What makes this all the more impressive is the fact that both my children have dyslexia and dysgraphia-school has not come easy for them. Whether working directly with Lisa or one of her expert team members, you can expect compassion, professionalism, flexibility, and a commitment to meet your child at his or level, emotionally and academically. Lisa and her team are exacting and demanding, but with an understanding that kids' anxiety levels and workloads fluctuate through the school year and need to be taken into consideration and adapted to. Working with Lisa, I felt supported as a parent, and more importantly, I knew that while my children were working hard, they too felt supported. My kids have tried preparing for standardized tests using workbooks and online/in-person group classes, but both report the one-on-one experience they have had with Lisa and her team to be the game-changer. Not only are Lisa and her team effective, they are kind! I have enjoyed all my interactions with them, and the kids do not balk when it is time to get down to work. They also feel motivated to get their work done between sessions, so they are prepared for their next meeting-with no helicoptering from me. This is how test prep should be.
