I enjoy working with people and tutoring adults and teenagers. Seeing the progress that a student can make and the self-confidence that results motivates me to find ways to build on that progress to achieve the student's goals. I was born and raised in California, and I speak and teach American English (not British English).
Tutoring Approach/Experience
I establish a relaxed and friendly atmosphere in which the student can enjoy learning and not feel embarrassed by mistakes, but rather encouraged to discover proficiency in the subject. Mastering a language takes practice and patience, but learning can be fun, too!

Judy is a wonderful tutor and very flexible. she's been very responsive and easy to reach by phone or email.
My daughter lovers working with Judy. Everything is so positive, and fun. After just a few weeks, my daughter has a much higher confidence in her French skills and her grades are moving up. It's been a very positive experience all around.
This is an update. My daughter finished off the French class high school senior year very well and decided to continue French into college. She even tested out at a college sophmore level. We give a huge thanks to Judy for keeping our daughter interested in French and for working so well with her. The tutoring sessions were fun and very helpful.
