I have over 10 years of experience tutoring mathematics, science, and high stakes testing including SAT, GMAT, GRE, and Praxis. My method of teaching is unique because I am able to quickly determine your focus areas and goals as well as provide instruction and strategy catered to your individual needs. I feel confident that our first meeting will not be our last.

If you are preparing for a high stakes exam such as the SAT, I will provide you with a free diagnostic and then study your results to determine your areas of focus. This individualized tutoring and study plan has resulted in my clients experiencing more efficient tutoring sessions, and ultimately, higher scores on exams in a shorter period of time!

My passion is making a difference in the lives of students to help them achieve all goals from acing a difficult exam to attending the college of their dreams. I would be honored to work with you or your child.

If interested in a letter of reference, below is a copy of a letter dated June 17, 2011 written by the parent of one of my math students this year:

“It has come to my attention that an excellent teacher is leaving your school, Ms. Ferzola. As a mother of three school age children in various schools throughout the city, I have never in my life met a teacher that exemplifies every aspect of the teaching profession. From the moment, I had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Ferzola she assured me that my son would achieve and go beyond his potential in Algebra. I gave her an unconfident, poor math student with an intense dislike for mathematics into what blossomed under her tutelage into a confident, hardworking student who now feels that he is smart. This remarkable young educator will be greatly missed by the Furia family. She gave me the greatest gift that a mother could ever ask for, a confident child with a future ahead of him. I wish Miss Ferzola the best of luck in all her endeavors, and hope that she has a change of heart and remains a Mastery Charter teacher because she embodies every aspect of Mastery’s philosophy, “that all students–not just those attending selective schools–can succeed and achieve academically”. She perpetuates the belief that every child has the capacity to fulfill their potential.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Regina F.”

Because of my love for math, I enjoy teaching individuals of all ages. In addition, I have taught ACT test preparation when working for College Finance and Planning.

My love of children has also led me to work with young women in the sport of gymnastics.

I am aware that there will be some changes in the math requirements for high school that will be enacted in the 2011-2012 school year and have spoken to the math teachers at Woodford County. To ensure my math students are prepared for these changes I will spend more time on these subjects.
