With over fourteen years of experience, I am eager to help your student succeed in school! I am a recent Princeton graduate (BSE Operations Research and Financial Engineering, minors in Teacher Preparation, Finance, and German Language). As part of the Teacher Preparation program (specialization in High School Mathematics), I was given the opportunity to teach lessons in multiple high school classrooms and learn about effective teaching methods that directly translate to the success of my tut...

Lisa tutored my daughter in 10th grade chemistry. Lisa was very clear, with great explanations and she really helped my daughter - highly recommended! Thanks Lisa!

Lisa is a great teacher. She tutored my son with his high school geometry class, and 4 years later my daughter with her AP Physics class. Both time she was able to pick up on what they needed immediately, adapted her teaching methods to each one (they have very different learning styles), and both appreciated her knowledge and the way she explained the course. I strongly recommend Lisa.

Lisa F is punctual, communicative and knowledgeable. She has made herself available to my son before and after their sessions. She has explained concepts so he now understands them and how to apply them.
- Kristine F. from Williston Park, NY
Lisa was thorough and engaging she went slowly and repeated instructions. I enjoyed meeting with her! Looking forward to our next session of physics support. I appreciate her rapid response for assistance.
- Jean B. from Bay Shore, NY
Lisa was great at helping my daughter understand her lesson and understand the concept step by step. She was patient and the lesson made my daughter more confident in geometry. Will be using her again for sure!
- Debbie S. from Northport, NY
Lisa helped me understand SIN and COS and walked me through problems I didn't previously understand. She was great and very nice and was understanding of my level. She made comparisons and analogies to help me understand real life examples.
- Janet M. from Windham, NY
Lisa helped me review topics from College chemistry that I could not figure out. She is patient and was very helpful. I would recommend her. I was able to communicate with her with ease.
- Michelle D. from Jericho, NY
She re-enforced whatever was taught in school by diving deeper into the topic and taught different ways to solve a problem. She is very good in explaining the reasoning behind the problem.
- Jessie L. from Syosset, NY
Lisa is very patient and promotes a positive attitude. She used multiple methods to explain a problem (ex: visuals coupled and real-life scenarios to make sense of the problems)... Great tutor- highly recommend her!
- Melissa B. from Albertson, NY
Lisa is prepared, brings very helpful materials to the session, outlines the important topics and does a great job teaching those topics. she is patient and professional. We are lucky to have found her for chemistry regents prep!. We will definitely use her again.!
- Karen M. from East Northport, NY
Lisa worked with me on ACT preparation. She helped with both math as well as the English portions of the test. In addition to sample questions she showed me other strategies to improve my score.
- Russ C. from Oyster Bay, NY
Lisa helped my daughter to get a 94 on her Algebra regents. She was so patient and easy to work with.I would definitely use her again and recommend others use her.

I cant begin to say how lucky we are to have found Lisa on WyzAnt. I have to be honest, I saw Princeton and someone who has not so long ago been through these exams and said this must be it for my daughter. My daughter needed someone she could relate to and Lisa was it! We had other tutors that my daughter (and my wife and I) were not happy with. When we found Lisa we only had about 8 weeks until the next test to get my daughters ACT grades up. Lisa and my daughter met for 2 hours once a week (1 hour math and 1 hour English). It was the only time I can ever remember where my daughter did not complain about the tutor and never once complained about how 2 hours was too long. She enjoyed being with Lisa so much and learned so much from her. Lisa gave her excellent advice on how to take these tests. She also was very good at giving my daughter the mental confidence she desperately needed, which is way beyond the role of a tutor. My daughter moved her math score from a 22 to a 26 in this short period of time. Overall she moved her composite grade up 2 points. If we had found Lisa earlier and had a bit more time, I am confident these scores would have gone even higher. We are so thankful for finding Lisa and the gift she gave our daughter by opening up more college opportunities for herself. Thanks Lisa!

Lisa is an excellent tutor. She's patient, knowledgeable and easy to work with. I've gotten great results working with her in both physics and trigonometry. I highly recommend her.
