Stephanie N. says, "I am so glad to have found Annette for my daughter! My daughter isn't talkative and the Covid 19 SIP has made it worse. She has no social life. She is in her last year in middle school and I wanted to find her a speech professional to develop and improve her social skills to ensure an easy transition to high school. Annette taught my daughter how to organize ideas and thoughts in both speaking and writing and provided resources to practice at home. It's been only 3 months and I'm already seeing a big difference. My daughter can now express herself better in speaking and she can write a lot more efficiently. It took her a lot less time to finish her writing assignments! Annettes continues to encourage my daughter and she has gained confidence through working with Annette. I referred Annette to my friend and I highly recommended her to anyone who seeks help in improving communication skills." Read more

Miss Krista amongst many things, is kind and caring and she knows her stuff... We look forward to her visits. If we had to do it all over again, we would pick Ms Krista each & every time. " Read more

Brandy H. says, "We cannot say enough about Ms. Ilene Marks of High Low Music and her impressive curriculum. We have taken many of her classes over the years. PRESCHOOL: In our pre-school days we were introduced to her as a fantastic after school music teacher but she was so much more than that. The kids grew more confidence, were encouraged to be creative, work together as a group, learned what a rhythm was, enjoyed dancing, practiced active listening, learned memory tricks using music, exposed to music history, worked through problem solving... and of course enjoyed a real appreciation for music of all kinds. My kids took her "preschool music theory class" a number of times while they attended a Montessori school in Los Gatos. Consistently my kids would look forward to Wednesday with Mrs. I! ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: My 5 year old took her "Kidz Entrepreneur class" over the summer which was just as amazing as her music class. When my son first found out she was teaching another class - he didn't even care what it was, he wanted to sign up for it. I am glad we did! Ms. Ilene's curriculum for the Entrepreneur class was nothing less than impressive. Lemonade stands, Pet stores, Kid friendly businesses... And after all her lessons the kids actually opened a 'class store' with their own stickers/small toys and experience the whole process of selling and buying! It was a wonderful class that made a huge impact on my son's life! He even wanted to open up a small lemonade stand at home... even though he hates lemonade. He was just REALLY excited to provide a service to the neighbors while making some money for his piggy bank. Wow! All in all, Ilene Marks of High Low Music is so much more than just a music teacher! She is a positive presence that has an amazing talent to captivate the children while actually teaching them life skills! Photo of High Low Music - Los Gatos, CA, United States. All ready to open up a Lemonade stand. He had so much fun and learned some real life skills!" Read more

Hi, My name is Catherine. I have over 8 years worth of general tutoring experience. I also have a bachelor's and Masters in computer science. I like to create lesson plans that are catered to my students needs. I know each student is not a one size fits all. I also like to create fun lessons to keep my students engaged and think that learning can be fun. My favorite part of this job is seeing when my students have those light bulb moments, where they finally understand a topic that they found difficult.

Who: Hi, my name is Justin. I am a mechanical engineer in the aerospace industry based out the South Bay. Why Me?: I nearly failed Calculus in my Junior year of high school. At the time, I reached out a local tutor, and he turned my academic life around and set me on the path I'm on today. I strive to help students who are in my then shoes, so they can get the help that I needed and succeed in their academics or otherwise. Experience: I have a several years of tutoring experience in subjects including high school and college level various mathematics (Calculus, Differential Equations, Trigonometry, Statistics) and Physics (Newtonian, Stati

As a current English Teacher with 12+ years of tutoring experience, all 6-12 material is still quite relevant and fresh in my mind. I have worked with a variety of ages, from sixth grade all the way to seniors in high school. I get to know each student individually as well as get to know their personal goals. I will provide quick, concise responses for those in a hurry, and slow, methodic teaching for those looking to understand the material on a deeper level. I welcome parent feedback and will alter my methods based on parental goals as well.

I can do online tutoring on Zoom, or in person tutoring within 10 miles of Pleasanton, CA. I have over 25 years teaching and tutoring high school and college students up through AP Calculus. I currently teach at Foothill High School and Las Positas College. When teaching large high school calculus classes, over 90% of my students pass the AP test, most with a score of 5. When tutoring one-on-one, 100% of my students pass the AP test. I also regularly tutor students in Geometry, Algebra II and Precalculus. I love helping students understand math. I have a knack for making difficult topics seem much simpler and I enjoy using that talent every o...

Reviews for San Jose English tutors

Recent success stories from people in the San Jose area.
Christine K.
Our very shy 8 year old son loves Ms. I, and so do we! He has requested to take her classes every semester of this past year. This is high praise from a boy who always hated school and never wanted to attend any classes...until we started homeschooling this year and found a few amazing teachers like Ms. I. So far, he has taken her Public Speaking, Kidz Entrepreneur, and Kidz Entrepreneur 2 class. The have all inspired him and built his confidence. Before taking her Public Speaking class, no one could hear our son when he spoke in class. His voice was barely audible and he struggled to make eye contact. Half way through the class, he transformed into a new kid. I couldn't believe it. Standing straight, projecting his voice, making eye contact, and even choosing to memorize his speeches and poems. Amazing! Teacher I's Kidz Entrepreneur classes were equally impressive, piquing our son's interest in entrepreneurship, giving back to the community, and finding environmentally responsible ways to do it. He now loves watching Shark Tank (with elevator pitches like the ones students give in the classes) and The Profit With his dad. He takes a keen interest in any news story about kids who start successful, impactful businesses. And during this past semester, he decided to create his own website for his class business idea. Very impressive! He never would've done any of this without Ms. I and her great classes. She is always upbeat, kind, creative, and inspiring. She provides the perfect mix of fun, structure, and meaningful homework (in contrast to the busy work many of my friends are complaining their kids are overwhelmed by in their public school distance learning).

We just moved to the US from Korea and the change has been very tough for my kids. They are not familiar with the US school system and falling behind. I saw their confidence draining. But all of that changed when SoFlo came into the picture. To start, they gave a free assessment so they could figure out where my children were struggling. From there we had weekly tutoring sessions that my kids actually enjoy. I am seeing their confidence return and life in the US get better for them
