Testimonials

"Miss Finger has been an absolutely amazing support system for me as I transitioned as a student athlete to college. Her bio says she works with kids from kindergarten through 9th grade. However, she guided me through many tough assignments at a collegiate level. Even more impressive is that she willingly and happily provided frequent feedback despite my attending a university in a different country. So, I guess she tutors internationally! I'm an introvert, but she got me to open up and talk to her about my schoolwork and life. She was truly a godsend for me, and I cannot wait to make her proud by getting my bachelor's degree this year and going on to law school. She started as my tutor, but became my friend. - Mr. Cameron B., current university student

This very genuine connection and sense of trust that she quickly established with my 9-year-old son is what inspires and motivates him to work through the lessons and assignments that he would otherwise resist doing. He adores Joanna and enjoys his time learning with her. If one approach to learning something new isn't working for my son, Joanna always has more ideas.

Her nurturing presence is truly comprehensive. My son hasn't only grown academically, but also creatively and emotionally. Joanna is truly a beautiful human being with a heart of gold.

Here is a direct quote from my son when I asked him how he would describe Joanna to other people, "She is the nicest person I know! She helps me get the work done so I have the rest of the day to play. Also, she is super creative and kind."

-Dr. Karen S., parent

“We had a wonderful experience with Joanna! She tutored our daughter for math and greatly encouraged her confidence in the subject. She also prepared our kids for high school entrance exams. Joanna put a lot of time and effort into her tutoring and really cared about helping our kids."
 - Amy G., parent. 

“Joanna has been a game changer for us. Our son was struggling a bit across the board with academics when we found Joanna. She has helped tremendously in completely turning around his approach, and more importantly his results. She is dependable, convenient, and connects with our son with her sweet, and caring approach. That opens the door to academic tutoring skills that she is able to expertly deliver. Joanna helps with all subjects in a way that is specific to our son's current curriculum, helping him stay organized and on track with homework, and preparing him for upcoming exams and quizzes. Additionally, her parent communication is excellent, creating a natural partnership to help manage accountability. The results have been fantastic. We can't praise her enough. Joanna successfully guided my son through the whole process of applying to Brophy. She is a wonderful person, and her services are an incredibly effective investment in the academic success of your child."  - Delcia B., Parent

"We were referred to Joanna from a friend because our son needed a little help with seventh-grade math. We were planning to only work with her for just a couple of sessions, however, she made a connection with our son right away so we decided to continue. She started working with our son with his math but has also helped him with other subjects when needed. Joanna has had an incredible impact on our son's academic success and his ability to take on new challenges in school. She creates an environment that encourages her students to challenge themselves and she celebrates their successes. Our son has been working with Joanna for over two years now. She has become a very close family friend and we are very lucky to have found such an intelligent, attentive and dedicated tutor and family friend."     - Laurie K., Parent

"Joanna has been tutoring my son for 3 years and we love her. She has been instrumental in his improvement in math/algebra. She has also helped him learn how to study in math and other subjects such as science and social studies. Joanna is patient, kind and delightful to work with. My son would not have received the good grades he has now without her help. She is simply the best tutor we have ever had."   - Margaret H., Parent

"I would highly recommend Joanna as a math tutor. We came to Joanna in the 3rd quarter of 7th grade as our son was struggling with math. BEST DECISION we ever made. Wish we would have done it sooner! His math grade has already improved in such a short time. Joanna is professional, courteous and approachable with both the child and parent(s). She answers questions in a very positive manner and encourages your child. My son Jake became more comfortable with math and has not been afraid to tackle higher math areas with confidence. Joanna is a gem! I can't thank her enough!  - Carmen. J., Parent
