"I have been seeing Julia since I was in the fifth grade and her help has helped me immensely. Julia has helped me through elementary school to high school math. Julia explains things in a clear way and never makes you feel stupid. She also shows you shortcuts and helpful tips."
Trini, graduated senior

"Julia has helped my daughter improve her grade in math. Her explanations are clear and concise and she has made Melissa feel confident that she can handle math challenges."
Lisa, mother of an 11th grader

"We are so pleased with Julia Olkin's tutoring! Our daughter was in 5th grade and failing math, which was very stressful for the family, and our daughter. She started seeing Dr. Olkin, and is still happily using Julia's services well into high school. Julia has the gift of explaining math concepts clearly and concisely, and she never makes our daughter feel stressed out or upset that she isn't "getting it". After working with Julia her math grades went up significantly. Julia has that rare gift of making the math seem understandable, and my daughter absolutely depends on her and tries to schedule with her before tests and finals for extra help. We have referred other parents to Julia and they are as happy as we are. We have just recently started sending our younger son as well!"
Linda, mother of a 10th grader



"Dr. Olkin helped me raise my math SAT score by 50 points. I couldn’t have done it without her help."

"Danelle has been doing outstanding in her math class. She has surpassed what we had hoped and we attribute most of that to Julia's wonderful tutoring abilities and her expertise with math. It has been wonderful to see Danelle excel from not passing at all to raising her grade to a B+ this semester. We are very happy with what Julia has helped Danelle. Danelle, too, attributes it to Julia's patience and understanding with her and to Julia's wonderful knowledge in tutoring."
Rosemary, mother of a 9th grader.
