Wed May 26 2010This teacher was the only reason why I passed my Calculus class at UT. I had a 70 on one test, and then a 50 in the next.... before i met Corinne, and I was at a point where I had no hope. But no, Corinne defied my all my expectations for my future hope in calculus. Corinne is not only great with math, but she's great at explaining the problems. So can dominate any word problems(any related rate problems, for you calculus students), anything....maybe because she has a degree in english as well. She also does the problem for you. I find that better personally, because even though she does the problem, she explains it... and if you stop and ask why she did a certain step, she be glad to answer. but all in all, if you have any doubts about asking for a tutor, Corinne is where the money is well spent.

Sun May 16 2010Before my daughter entered sixth grade she was very unsure of her math skills and had little confidence she would be able to keep up with her classmates. She is timid and afraid of asking questions in front of her peers for fear she's the only one who doesn't understand. Math homework was often a tearful experience. We set out to find a tutor who not only would teach the concepts and skills, but also build our daughter's confidence and self-esteem and hopefully make math something she didn't want to escape from. I found Corinne via her web site and was impressed by the testimonials of her students, her credentials, and her friendly smile. I was initially concerned that she targeted higher grade students but in a telephone call she assured me that she loved working with younger students and pointed out testimonials on her web site from parents of elementary and middle schoolers who had achieved success with her mentoring. Our daughter loves to work with Corinne. She's been everyth... Read more

Sun May 16 2010Corinne was able to explain BC in ways my teacher was unable to and she was able to clarify topics in which I had trouble with really easily. She is a great tutor and I strongly recommend her.

Tue May 11 2010I am a high school student at St. Andrew's and Corinne helped me out so much. I was taking AP Calculus and struggling at the beginning but at the end i had a solid A average. She helps you by not only understanding the concepts, but applying them to examples relating to your own life. I play sports so for every problem I didn't understand she applied it to athletics in some way. It helped me out a lot. On top of the amazing help she provides, she is without a doubt one of the most caring and nicest ladies i have ever met. I am so happy i was referred to Corinne. She will help you out without a doubt.

Sat May 08 2010hey, let me first off say that corinne is soooo fabulous and great. i am 23 years old, and just about to graduate from math, thank goodness haha, only because of this woman. i have always been terrible at math, i took one course three times, and i never thought i would get out of there. well, it wasn't until i met corinne that i knew i would pass this course. not only has she helped me pass that math course (elementary algebra), but she helped me pass my next two math courses that i needed for my degree, thank goodness. she is beyond excellent, and i'm not trying to sound dramatic, haha, but she is. i have had countless tutors from all over try to help me, and sorry to say, they didn't succeed. corinne is the only one that can, she is very patient, and she will sit there for hours, and i do mean hours, haha, and help me in every single great possible way, until she is sure i understand it. she has a way of teaching me the material in a way that i understand it, that no else could. i...

Wed May 05 2010Corinne has the ability to help others understand complicated math concepts. She is a natural at relaying information in ways others can grasp. If you are having difficulty understanding your lectures, Corinne can help. I highly recommend her as a math tutor and would use her again.

Sun May 02 2010Corinne has been both a teacher and a friend to me. She was my instructor for calculus I and II as well as differential equations. While Corinne is knowledgeable in the higher-level mathematics, her real skills lie in helping people who are struggling with college-level mathematics. She is a natural teacher who pours herself into her students. If you are having difficulty with mathematics, then I suggest that you contact Corinne Irwin; she can help.

Sun May 02 2010Had a great experience dealing with Corinne. She really understands the math (especially calculus) and is able to communicate it in a way that is more understandable than the complex theory based lectures at UT. She also knows alot of the short cut formulas that are easy to remember and helpful in learning the material. Overall, a great teacher and is a huge reason why I was able to make an A in Calc 408 L

Sat May 01 2010She is a great tutor who really knows her subject matter. I worked with her on my Algebra II and precalculus and always left understanding the subject matter much more thoroughly than when I came. She was able to answer all of my questions and even explain things in more depth than my teacher was able to. Additionally, she is super nice and always tries to make sure that you really understand what is going on. If you are feeling lost in class or just want to strengthen your math skills and get a better understanding, I would really recommend this math tutor!
