Individual attention, proven results
I love helping students to succeed. It is my job as a certified teacher in all the sciences and social sciences to help students become aware of their strengths and teach them methods to overcome their weaknesses. Usually just a few sessions and a lot a positive reinforcement will work wonders with a frustrated student. I consider my student's success as my measure of my own success.

Testimonials
“We have been seeing Diane for about 8 months now. From the first time we contacted Diane she was so accommodating regarding our needs and working with us to find a time/s that would work with our daughter’s busy schedule. We have used Diane for Honors English and study skills. Diane wanted to understand and assess my daughter’s strengths and weaknesses, instead of being like every other tutor and offer her everything from A to Z. Diane targets where my daughter needs help and works on those areas while constantly unassumingly reassessing to find other areas to make her a better student. Diane is a very proactive tutor and not a reactive tutor. Diane not only helps my daughter on what she needs help on now, but she also tailors her style towards where my daughter will need help down the road. Every time I have observed Diane with my daughter there are so many wonderful teaching moments!! Diane is very organized and structured. Diane provided my daughter with handouts in study skills and also Honors English (writing) to help her now and in the future. We will continue to use Diane, and our family highly recommends her. While we have only used her for English, writing and study stills, we are confident Diane is excellent in all her subjects. You just know when you have a great tutor, and Diane is a great tutor.”
“Diane has been working with one of my sons for several months now. She is helping him prepare for college by working on study skills and reading and retention. He has responded well to Diane’s teaching because he can see that she cares! We are very pleased with the results so far and we have in fact now hired Diane to work with our HS son on ACT prep and study skills. I highly recommend Diane as a tutor!”
“Diane is an excellent teacher, very patient and helpful. She helped me a lot to improve my English, especially conversations. We practiced in many fields; history travel and many others. I would recommend her to other students. I’m really grateful for her help.”
