Hello.
I was a master’s candidate at Teachers College, Columbia University and I have a degree in Psychology from Case-Western Reserve University. During my years at Case-Western Reserve, I was a paid tutor in the Resident Tutor Program, a federal program which provided group and individual tutoring to public school students. It was a joy to watch those children progress from struggling and, sometimes, apathetic, to students who were not only eager to come to class, but also making signif…

Testimonials
Kevin L. from Montville, NJ Julie noticed that my daughter had a tendency watching the clock too often in the past 2 sessions. This time, Julie suggested covering the clocks. I think it help my daughter to concentrate her attentions to the subject. Julie was very patient working my daughter, who believed she was learning something new. Yesterday, 12/19, Julie showed my daughter a proper way to conduct a search using Google and how to pull contents and arrange the contents in a organized way. This is very important skill that she must learn. This lesson will help her a lot.
Dawn J. from Randolph, NJ In the couple of weeks that Julie has been tutoring my son, he has shown improvement with his vocabulary and reading comprehension skills. Julie is a very patient and thorough tutor who takes her time and makes sure that he is confident in understanding the material they are reviewing. She is a wonderful, knowledgeable tutor who puts her students first.
HANNAH R. from Montville, NJ 3/12/2014 We've had 3 lessons so far with Julie. My son was not so receptive to the idea of having a reading tutor and let her know it by not paying attention. However, Julie was so patient to get him to open up. She asked many questions to figure out what my son's interests were and they started to talk about Minecraft and was slowly able to gain more trust and confidence. I'm excited to see that he's opening up more to Julie (thanks to Julie's clever approach!!!). Julie is also great at providing detailed, meaningful lesson reviews so the parents can understand the successes and challenges and discuss with the child in preparation for the next lesson. THANK YOU Julie!!! Updated review: 10/21/14 My son has been meeting with Julie for about 8 months. His reading comprehension skills are improving and is getting better at breaking down the questions to help him how to reference back to the story to answer the questions. She's also been helping him out to write a story; frame the story and answer the 5 W's and How. Although my son does not care for writing (has white page syndrome), Julie is teaching him (did I mention soooo patiently) how to develop the outline and fill in the details. If you're looking for a great reading/writing tutor who is extremely patient with stubborn resistant children, I highly recommend working with Julie.
