“Terrie is an excellent tutor.  My daughter has ADD and has a hard time with math.  Terrie is very patient and explains problems to where she understand them.  My daughter really likes her personality.  She tutored my daughter in Algebra and now in Geometry.  She keeps in touch with the teacher and will arrange tutoring before a test date!  Last week she added her in to get ready for a test and she made a 100 on the test!!  We will continue to use Terrie throughout our daughter’s academic career!” – Sherean, parent

“Terrie has transformed our daughter’s view of herself as a mathematician, as she has gone from struggling to pass the STAAR in 6th grade to consistently scoring A’s in high school and a mastery on the Algebra I STAAR.  Terrie’s approach to tutoring is patience, patience, patience and never making a child feel inadequate.  She’s the best!” – Kim, parent

“Terrie is amazing.  We tried several tutors and Mathnasium with no improvement.  Since working with Terrie, our son now has a B average!” – Alicia, parent

“Terrie has been so amazing with our daughter. Typical tutors work with the child only during the assigned time. Terrie really goes above and beyond trying to communicate with the math teachers directly and even coming to one of the school conferences. We are very grateful to have found her.  She truly is committed to making sure the students do their best.” – Madhavi, parent

“Terrie helped my daughter get through a very difficult 8thGrade Pre-AP Algebra class.  Without her, my daughter would have fallen way behind.“ – Russ, parent

“I have used this tutor for about 5 years now.  When we first started, she tested Taylor to determine her learning style.  She also keeps up with the teacher’s web pages, so she knows when there is a test, etc.  She will try to rearrange the schedule if the test falls the day before tutoring.  She is a certified teacher, and Taylor really likes her.  I highly recommend her.” – Maggie, parent

“We have a freshman son in Geometry and a sophomore son in Algebra II, and although both have been good math students in the past, they were beginning to struggle.  With just an hour of extra instruction a week from Terrie, BOTH boys are consistently making A’s now!  We are so pleased!” – Paula, parent

We definitely recommend Ms. Terrie for piano lessons for all ages and levels of students.” – Cindy, parent

I definitely recommend her as a teacher.” – Stacy, parent
