Personal Statement

Now booking for the 2022-23 school year!

After eight years teaching in my local public and private schools, I grew frustrated with the school systems and decided to leave teaching in early 2020. Over the past 2.5 years, I have been focusing on tutoring exclusively, and I absolutely love it!

What I love most about tutoring is working with students one-to-one so that I can help with exactly what each student needs. I am able to diagnose possible problem areas quickly, think of ways to help f...

Kerri is extremely knowledgeable and patient. She has been working with my son for over 5 months to help him with Calc BC concepts. My son enjoys working with her and he is doing great in his class.

Miles is working with Kerri in preparation for AP Calculus BC. He looks forward to their sessions: Kerri is friendly, patient, clear and explains things well. Thoroughly recommended!
- Marilena D. from Jersey City, NJ
Kerri was an outstanding tutor for my daughter for both honors pre-calculus and for AP Calculus BC. She had an excellent understanding of the material and was able to clearly explain concepts. She was organized in her approach to teaching, and patient in teaching and reviewing concepts. Her understanding of AP Calc was very helpful to my daughter when preparing for the exam. I would highly recommend Kerri as a tutor.

Kerri did a beautiful job working with both my girls this year -- one for AP Calc AB and one for AP Calc BC. She explained things in terms that were clear and filled in missing steps for them on problems that were challenging in class. Their regular meetings allowed both girls to get As in their class and to feel confident in their preparation. I strongly recommend her!
- Sharon K. from Pittsburgh, PA
My daughter was struggling her first semester of calculus. Kerri has helped her immensely. After just a few sessions my daughter?s calculus teacher commented on her improvement in class and on her test scores. I would highly recommend Kerri to anyone looking for a tutor. She?s kind and knowledgeable and made my daughter feel comfortable with her tutoring sessions.

Kerri tutored my daughter in AP Calculus this year and was wonderful. She is extremely knowledgeable, kind and patient and was able to break down a complicated subject into understandable pieces. She really helped my daughter immensely in understanding the material and was instrumental in her success. I highly recommend Kerri.

Kerri P. was a great tutor for my son for Algebra 2. He was really struggling and Kerri helped him to finish the year strong! She was also very flexible with our hectic schedule and was able to accommodate his needs as he prepared for his final. 5 Stars!! Highly recommend!
- Emily B. from Mars, PA
My son found sessions with Kerri very helpful. He felt well prepared for the exam and we both were very grateful when Kerri agreed to meet on her day off for the last review session right before the exam.

My son has been working with Kerri a few months now and he said she is his favorite tutor. She is very patient and encouraging and has helped him so much with math.
- Jill C. from Wexford, PA
My daughter enjoyed he work with Kerri and plans to utilize her again in the near future. Excellent at explaining concepts and ensuring she knew how to do the work. Thank you!
- Barbara S. from Nokomis, FL
Kerri is amazing. She not only has helped my daughter increase her confidence in AP Calculus but she has also helped with learning key subject fundamentals which continue to drive her toward success in her class.
- Kim N. from Union City, CA
Kerri knows the topics very well . We are happy with the first tutoring session, and will stay with her on the course subject.
- Sheryl C. from Mc Lean, VA
My 16yr son exited his first session with Kerri and remarked that she was great! Very patient with him, as he was not prepared, and helped him reorganize himself after the summer break. He?s looking forward to working with her throughout the year and now feels mentally ready, refreshed and reorganized!
- Josette G. from Gibsonia, PA
I found Ms. Patterson randomly online to tutor my son AP Calculus BC. I decided to try her because she was a high school math teacher and her rate is reasonable. After the first lesson, my son and I felt we were lucky to find such a great teacher. Since then, my son had about 30 hours of lessons from her during summer. She is very familiar with the curriculum and she made good use of time by covering as much as she could as she cared about my son?s progress. She is responsible, punctual, motivated, diligent, accommodating, and patient?.There are not enough good words to express how happy I am having her as my son?s tutor.
- Hong Z. from Marietta, GA
Kerri helped by daughter with Physics on 11th grade. She was struggling initially, but thanks to Kerri's patience and warm engagement she got thru. Her patience with my daughter was remarkable as well as her flexibility to accommodate schedule changes and increased rate at times. Kerri - Thanks a lot for your help!
- Moshe S. from Austin, TX
Kerri was absolutely wonderful and helped my daughter to her best semester yet in high school. She had two semesters with A?s and gained incredible confidence in her abilities. Kerri was also very accommodating in finding time at the last minute when those surprise tests were announced and the material was not completely clear. Highly recommended!
- Jordan R. from Willowbrook, IL
My daughter has been taking lessons once a week with Kerri for months now. She has helped my girl become more confident and helped her understand many of the concepts she?s struggled with in the past. Highly recommend her!
- Julie F. from Mill Valley, CA
Kerri asked for information ahead of time so that she could be best prepared for the lesson - which was very helpful and she brought additional resources forward for additional practice and studying.
- Cindy E. from Redlands, CA
A++++++ Our son really looks forward to his tutoring sessions. Very much worth it. The online format is excellent and Kerri is great on scheduling sessions that work with our son?s class schedule.
- Robert N. from Glastonbury, CT
Kerri has been working with my son on his AP Calc BC course. She is extremely efficient, knowledgeable, and patient. She is always well prepared with material to work on if my son doesn't have any. He finds her very helpful and earned an A in the course first quarter. Looking forward to continuing with her for the rest of AP Calc and possibly next year for AP Physics.
