Highly Qualified Teacher & Tutor (PK – Adult)
I began my teaching career next to the Mexican border, in Yuma, Arizona. As a first-year teacher there, I was presented with a classroom of twenty-four students. Out of the twenty-four, sixteen were Limited English Proficient (LEP), four were new to the country, and four were English Proficient. This was a challenge that provided me with the learning experience of a lifetime; leading to my fluency in the Spanish language, and a decision to pursue an advanced degree in English Language Learnin…
Testimonials
Mary Lou H. from West Orange, NJ Jennifer was easy to reach and set up a first meeting very quickly. She helped my daughter become more comfortable with her Honors Spanish curriculum and my daughter felt much better about going to her Spanish class after she left. Because my daughter's Spanish teacher only speaks in Spanish in the classroom, and requires the students to do the same, it is difficult for her to ask a question if she doesn't understand something. Jennifer was able to give clear instruction (in English) so that my daughter could understand how to utilize the Spanish language better. I will be using Jennifer again!
Munish K. from Little Ferry, NJ She showed up on time and was well prepared. Made every effort possible from her side to teach me. I appreciate working with her.
Casey H. from South Orange, NJ Jennifer helped my 13 year old in Spanish from the moment she arrived. She was incredibly communicative and responsive to all our emails and requests about scheduling. I plan on using her for the remainder of the school year and then some.
Michele B. from Boonton, NJ Jennifer was a great tutor for my son. Friendly and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her.
Dae C. from Livingston, NJ Jennifer is very organized and well prepared prior to each lesson to explain difficult Scientific concepts through her arsenal of narratives, question and answer dialogues, and helpful worksheets. She consistently demonstrates intuitive and innate ability to connect with my son not only to instill understanding of facts and figures, but also to foster deep love of learning. After the first lesson, my son said, ?Jennifer made Science fun, not boring!?
Cindy K. from Ho Ho Kus, NJ I cannot thank Jennifer enough for helping me navigate through my first session with PowerPoint. Jennifer is truly superb, patient, knowledgeable and always made sure that I was clear on every topic covered. Jennifer arrived organized and provided me with pre-typed instructions on what we would be covering. She also took helpful notes for me while I was on the computer learning each task. This will be a very useful guide as I further learn the ins and outs of the program. I would highly recommend Jennifer to both children and adults alike.
Anna A. from Newark, NJ Jennifer has very good teaching skills and keeps our sessions going at a good pace. She is punctual, easy to contact and responsive to messages. I highly recommend Jennifer.
Edward C. from Elizabeth, NJ Jennifer did a great job as a teacher. This was my first time with a Spanish tutor and she worth every penny and more. Thanks Jennifer!!!
John & Arlene B. from Bloomfield, NJ Our 7 year old son met with 4 different tutors over the course of 2 days so we could find the best fit. Jennifer was his clear favorite. She has a great manner with students. High energy, clear directions, fun lessons! Our son is looking forward to working with her this summer.
Chris A. from Caldwell, NJ I am very pleased with the service that Jennifer provides. She is personable, professional and easy to contact. She is always well prepared, and she has been able to develop a educational plan tailored to suit my specific needs. Don't hesitate to contact her. She is highly recommended!
Tashanisha M. from Newark, NJ Jennifer D. is a great tutor, patient, thorough, and keen on making sure her students are comfortable toward receiving accurate learning techniques. It was evident that Jennifer shows complete passion toward teaching her students. I am a Masters student being tutored for the PRAXIS 1 test; therefore, the session entailed that I go back to the basics of learning. From the beginning and to the end of the session, Jennifer made me feel comfortable regarding brushing up on my elementary education. What was most rewarding about my session with Jennifer was Jennifer?s ability to recognize my strengths and weaknesses and incorporate strategies toward taking the timed PRAXIS test. Through Jennifer?s taught techniques, I began to feel confident again regarding passing the PRAXIS 1 test. Jennifer spoke to me in terms that were understandable and easy for me to apply toward the test taking techniques as we encountered each section together and independently. Jennifer and I started with what to expect on the computer version of the PRAXIS 1 test and understanding the score percentages of each section of the test. Next, we started with the writing area of the test, understanding the proper usage of commas, basic grammar, nouns, verbs, and usage test 1. Jennifer is clear, and thorough but approachable. Thank you Jennifer.
Mitchell R. from Paterson, NJ Jennifer has been great! She took her time and was dedicated to her work. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Krystyna W. from Garfield, NJ Jennifer's first session with my son went great. He was very apprehensive about having a tutor but he met her and really likes her. She is very professional and gave me feedback right away on their first lesson. She left work for him to do and he is doing it without complaints. He looks forward to their next lesson. I believe she will help my son a great deal. I look forward to working with her.
Gianna S. from Little Falls, NJ Jennifer is friendly and patient. I can tell she has a passion for helping others accomplish their goals. I highly recommend her!
Luping S. from Short Hills, NJ Jennifer is positive and pleasant to work with. She spent time on getting to know my son before her first lesson. She then prepares her teaching based on his weakness and personality. Her teaching is professional and fun as well. My son thinks that she is a great tutor.
Paulina R. from Mahwah, NJ Jennifer is nice person and very good teacher. She is positive and patient. Jennifer was very helpful and always well prepared. I recommend!
Kirsten U. from Short Hills, NJ Jennifer is very good with keeping the students focused. She is able to get things done while the students enjoy their time with her. My son gets excited when she is coming to tutor him and accomplishes a great deal of work when she is with him. She is great!
Joy L. from Short Hills, NJ The reason I decided to choose Jennifer D. out of hundreds of tutors for my 9th grader is because she mentioned in her profile that she provides "customized tutoring where all students receive personalized programming, continuous monitoring and immediate feedback". But it turned out she is not doing that. When I asked for a long term plan after 2 private lessons, she told me she is about to go back to school and couldn't do it for long time. So it wasted my time. Hope she could mention that at the beginning.
