Randi, 1 lesson with Cornelia

Cornelia is a great tutor. In person visits. Very good instruction. Highly recommended. My daughter was very comfortable with her. Can’t wait to see how my daughter does on her next testing day.

Cara, 12 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia worked with my daughter to raise her ACT math score. My daughter's math score was stuck at a 29 and after many practice tests, Cornelia was able to analyze which areas she needed to improve. Unfortunately, my daughter, who does well in math, had geometry in COVID middle school and didn't learn nearly enough to do well on standardized testing as a junior in HS. My daughter did MANY practice tests and would sit with Cornelia to go over which problems she got wrong. Cornelia would refresh the concepts she needed and gave test taking tips that really helped her. Happy to say that my daughter raised her score to a 34. I am confident that without Cornelia, she would never have been able to do it. I can't stress enough, that Cornelia is worth the time and money for her knowledge!! She was able to bring up my daughter's knowledge and more importantly confidence to go into the ACT again to get the score she needed.

Eve, 5 lessons with Cornelia

My daughter was having trouble remembering Algebra since it was taught 2 years prior virtually. After one session with Cornelia she was confident and prepared for her test. Highly recommend her and so does my daughter.

Cornelia went over common questions on the Math section of the SATs with my daughter to get a sense of her strengths and weaknesses and offer some tips and strategies. My daughter really liked Cornelia and is looking forward to her next session. I highly recommend her.

Rachel, 2 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia works with boy of my sons (6th grade and 8th grade). They love her and describe her as patient, clear, and very effective at explaining concepts they are struggling with. She works with them if they have examples or homework/tests to review and provides her own examples and practice problems when they don’t.

TAMMY, 41 lessons with Cornelia

I reached out to Cornelia to seek help for my daughter's 8th grade Math during this past summer. Cornelia assessed my daughter's Math level in the first lesson and assigned her with some Math exercises appropriate for her level. In each lesson afterwards, she taught my daughter new concepts and go through many math exercises together. Within just one and a half month, my daughter was able to learn many new concepts and got ahead a very good start for the new school year. My daughter told me that she has gained a lot of confidence in Math and she feels that all the hard work in this past summer worth. She loves Cornelia's teaching even much better than her school teacher! Cornelia is very friendly and easy to talk to, she made my daughter feel very comfortable to ask questions. Also, she is very organized and well-prepared for each lesson. She gave assignments after each lesson so my daughter can practice after the class. Thank you so much, Cornelia! We would love to arrange summer lessons again next year. Keep in touch!

Natalie, 13 lessons with Cornelia

Ms. Cornelia is extremely knowledgeable in college level statistics... she taught me how to problem solve, taught me concepts, showed me how to use my calculator, among other things. She is patient & kind. I made a B in the class, before working with her I was prepared to drop or fail the class. Thank you Ms. Cornelia!

Monty, 1 lesson with Cornelia

My daughter has a few lessons with Cornelia and very enjoying it. Cornelia is very patient, knowledgeable and translate the concept that make it easier for her to understand.

Leanne, 28 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia is a patient and experienced tutor and I couldn't recommend her more highly. I more-or-less flunked math in high school and when I found out I had four weeks to prepare for the GRE General math component I was in a panic. Cornelia was fantastic. She recommended practice materials and study resources, helped me focus on the more achievable questions and set a bit of a program for me. Additionally, after I took two practice tests, she was willing to go through all my incorrect answers with me - this took some preparation on her part for which I am grateful.

Jonathon, 6 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia is a lucky find for my daughter. She has been extremely helpful. She is very knowledgable! My daughter was struggling to understand and stay on top of her AP Statistics course that she is taking online, and Cornelia has helped her get back on track

Learning the basic process of dealing with fractions by Cornelia was a great 1st round. I am gonna give it a 2nd go around with what my daughter is learning in class this week.

Joseph, 1 lesson with Cornelia

Cornelia is wonderful! She is patient and kind and knowledgeable. She was able to find creative ways to help my daughter really understand the concepts. She has made it so much easier for my daughter to transition to sixth grade Algebra. I highly recommend her for tutoring in math.

Jane, 9 lessons with Cornelia

I have only had 3 lessons with Cornelia so far, but she has been incredibly helpful in the relatively short time of our hour long session. Looking back at the video recordings has proved very helpful as well. Highly recommend her lessons.

Nicholas, 4 lessons with Cornelia

She is an awesome teacher. My daughter is always excited after a lesson with her and that is so amazing.

Marci, 8 lessons with Cornelia

I learned graphing and equations for a test I will take next week. I find her easy to understand and she explains the formulas so the information sticks. She is patient and does not expect you to immediately understand the content, instead she explains math in a way that I find easy and that makes sense.

Pam, 16 lessons with Cornelia

It would take me literally a couple + hours to work my way through a few statistics questions with my text book. Cornelia easily clarified the steps so I could work through the problems.

Kathleen, 1 lesson with Cornelia

My daughter will be entering 8th grade in the Fall. We decided that she needed a summer refresher in Algebra 1. After much research, I found Cornelia. My daughter really likes her and is looking forward to additional sessions with her this Summer.

Tomasz, 2 lessons with Cornelia

This is our second child who Cornelia has tutored and we are so pleased with her method! She is patient, kind, knowledgeable and very effective! We would definitely recommend her for math tutoring both for school work and SATs.

My girls feel very comfortable with Cornelia and she is great at breaking down the problems in ways they can understand. She is positive and patient with both of them and their different learning styles.

Anne, 48 lessons with Cornelia

She is very patient and makes learning math enjoyable. She helped my son with his math problems by suggesting he plan his approach to each problem which was very helpful. This allowed him to be able to do other problems on his own successfully and gave him more confidence in math. She was very punctual (in fact she was there early). Thank you very much, Cornelia. We would definitely call her again if needed.

j, 1 lesson with Cornelia

Cornelia M. helps me with Algebra 2. After spending 90 minutes in my Algebra 2 class at school, I was completely confused. After I spent 60 minutes with Cornelia M., I understood everything that was presented in class. She's very patient and explains the material extremely well. I always understand the material after working with her.

Sarah, 21 lessons with Cornelia

Point slope form. Equation of a line. I feel confident going forward. 😊 She was fantastic!! The white board made understanding concepts easy. It was easy to access my homework for review!!

Cornelia taught me Inverse functions. She was kind and helpful and answered all of my questions no matter what they were for math. She is a great tutor and I would recommend her to anyone needed math assistance

Julie, 7 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia was excellent-just what my son needed! He transferred schools mid-year and needed to fill in some gaps. He met with Cornelia a few times and ended the semester with an excellent grade and mastery of the material! I highly recommend.

Kelly, 4 lessons with Cornelia

Molly, 50 lessons with Cornelia

Ms. Cornelia was very helpful in developing a plan for me to learn the content covered in my Calculus 2 coursework utilizing all the tools available to me. She also showed me some more resources that I could use. I liked her aim of figuring out where I was having trouble and addressing that issue.

Christopher, 1 lesson with Cornelia

My daughter loves Cornelia! We needed a tutor who could teach geometry in a simple concept and make learning fun. Cornelia was outstanding. She not only made geometry fun but she taught my daughter in a way she understood. She even gave my daughter a heads up for the next lesson which makes her more prepared for her next upcoming class. I highly recommend Cornelia! Thank you for being a brilliant tutor.

Taught me math isn't as bad as I thought! Now I don't get so stressed out about tests because I have more confidence.

Suzie, 32 lessons with Cornelia

We had our first session with Ms. Cornelia and we were very pleased. She was able to determine my daughter's learning style quickly and she was very patient. My daughter felt comfortable and looks forward to more lessons. Ms. Cornelia is very professional and able to relate to children.

Shawan, 5 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia has helped my son achieve consistently high grades these last couple of years. She is very accommodating also. I would and have recommended her to anyone who needs a math tutor.

Kenny, 91 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia has been tutoring my 8th grade daughter in Algebra since the beginning of the school year (about 6 months). Her grades are much stronger and more consistent, and her confidence has improved a lot. We are really glad we found Cornelia. She's a gem!

Pam, 25 lessons with Cornelia

Not only has Cornelia helped our daughter learn Algebra, working with her has helped our daughter gain a tremendous amount of confidence. I recommend Cornelia wholeheartedly.

Marcy, 40 lessons with Cornelia

She helped my daughter review for a test, giving her lots of helpful tips. We are so grateful for her!

Kim, 29 lessons with Cornelia

We found this tutor to be organized and well prepared. We had a specific need and we were pleased with her laser-like focus. One hour was more productive than many days in a conventional school setting! Update 29 October 204: If you're looking for a tutor who really knows the current Baltimore county middle school math curriculum, Cornelia is fantastic. In the past our main frustration with well-meaning tutors was that they would be 'learning' our child's needs as they tutored. Cornelia knows what is needed ahead of time and the results are remarkable. Way to go, Cornelia!

Orlinda, 34 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia is a true expert in the field. She helped my daughter greatly! We will be sure to use her again if we need her.

Christina, 34 lessons with Cornelia

My daughter has struggled with math for years. With Cornelia's help, she was willing to take on the challenge of advance classes. She still struggles some, but looking ahead at chapters and reviewing the lessons before they are taught, along with Cornelia's guidance, makes the lessons in school seem not so daunting a task. My daughter looks forward to working with her every week and hates to miss a lesson. We are going on our 3rd school year with Cornelia and appreciate all her help. She is a pleasure to have as part of my daughter's learning experience.

Lisa, 64 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia is warm and welcoming. She greets you with a big smile and puts the student at ease. I stayed with my daughter for the first session to get a feel for Cornelia's way of tutoring and to see how my daughter responded to her. My daughter took to her immediately and wanted to continue past her first hour. She is looking forward to her next session.

Bethel, 13 lessons with Cornelia

I was very fortunate to locate Cornelia through WyzAnt for tutoring. I was a little skeptical about utilizing an online tutoring service but Cornelia changed my opinion immediately. She replied to my many inquiries quickly and made me feel comfortable with choosing her as a tutor. I am an older student going back to school for my college degree and Math was not fresh for me (especially Algebra). I boldly signed up for a double Algebra course and knew I needed a great tutor. I can honestly say that I would not have passed either Algebra class without Cornelia's assistance. We arranged meetings twice a week and Cornelia was extremely patient, caring and helpful each and every session. Cornelia was able to explain solving equations to me in a way that helped everything make sense. She was also excellent at offering tips and tricks for remembering formulas, etc. This was great for me because I was tackling two classes and the information was overwhelming, so this helped alleviate much of my stress. I would highly recommend Cornelia, I really can't say enough positive things about my experience with her. All I know is that she was a huge part of my success!

Lauree, 29 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia is a very good teacher. She introduced me to khan academy, and every since, I have been learning non stop. Between khan academy, their coaches, and Cornelia, I feel like my learning math has become a little easier. Even though I have khan academy, I like Cornelia better, I like when we are together and we are going step by step and with and intercommunication, one on one. Cornelia is always pleasant and very patient with me. I still feel I have a long ways to go, but with Cornelia's help, I think, I think I might make it!

Nat, 7 lessons with Cornelia

Cornelia is a fantastic tutor. She is friendly and positive with my son. She makes learning fun and breaks down the concepts.

Neal, 12 lessons with Cornelia

Ms. Cornelia is wonderful! I was so nervous and stressed about Math, but Ms. Cornelia made it so simple that even a little child would understand. Ms. Cornelia meets with you and goes straight into tutoring. She is sweet and very professional! I am so excited to have finally met the perfect tutor!

Vicki, 4 lessons with Cornelia

My daughter has really benefited from working with Cornelia. Cornelia did a great job of figuring out what my daughter needed help with, and then was very clear and patient as they worked through. My daughter's understanding has improved significantly, and she has a better attitude toward math overall. I would absolutely recommend Cornelia to anyone!
