Personal Story

How Julia became the person, parent, and educator she is today.

I attended Piedmont High School. While I was there, I completed five and a half years of math courses. I was INTO math. I attended the Johnston Center for Integrative Studies at The University of Redlands. I believe this is where I developed my love of the individualized and creative learning process.

When I returned home after college, a former Piedmont math teacher of mine and current tutor asked me if I wanted to be a Math tutor and started giving out my number. Tutoring fell into my lap, and I quickly fell in love with my students and work.

I have been tutoring teens in Math and Executive Function for twenty three years. I have worked with students from Piedmont High, College Prep, Bishop O’Dowd, and other surrounding schools.

My business has been centered in Piedmont, California. I currently live in Orinda after sixteen years in Rockridge, am married, and have a daughter in 12th grade. But now, during the pandemic, I am working on Zoom with students and parents anywhere. I have the best job on Earth and would love to meet your teen!
