Testimonials

“I have known Judy as a colleague and a friend for the past 11 years. I was fortunate enough to have her as a mentor when I began teaching at Hathaway Brown School in the upper school math department. When I taught the upper level math courses, I never had to worry about my students struggling in geometry. Thanks to Judy, they were always well prepared. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs a knowledgeable and highly professional math tutor.”

“For more than a decade, I taught the 10th graders who had been in Judy’s 9th grade classes at Hathaway Brown. Judy’s mathematics teaching was outstanding, but she made at least as big an impact in teaching teenagers how to be students: how to stay organized, to manage their time, to focus their preparation for quizzes and tests. Judy has a gift for teaching mathematics, for integrating algebra and geometry to reinforce previous topics while introducing new ones, and for teaching students how to become self-reliant. I still see this in the students who work with her in a tutoring setting; they become self-starter students with a solid mathematical foundation.”
