Jill is absolutely a gem. She was able to meet my child at their level, explain complex math ideas and help improve those areas that did not come easy. Jill was able to create game plans as the semester progressed to help them understand the material. I could not ask for a better educational partner for my child in an area they struggle in! – Parent of The Buckley School ’28
Where to even begin. Ms. Bush is such an incredible tutor. She has helped me so much over the years with Chemistry, Physics, Statistics, Applied math, etc. Every kind of math and (science based math) I have brought to her she understands so well and explains in ways in which it makes so much more sense to me. Ms. Bush is such an incredible resource for students confused about any aspect of a math or science class. She works hard to come into each session prepared to help as much as possible. I remember being a bit nervous my first session since I have had some mean tutors before but after being on zoom with her for more than a minute or two, I felt completely comfortable with her warm presence. If you or your child is in need of a tutor Ms. Bush is a great choice!! – The Buckley School ’25 & Syracuse University ’29
Jill was a lifesaver for our family! My son got behind in the fall in his AP calculus class and completely lost confidence in his math skills for the first time in his life. Jill came to the rescue! She was able to simultaneously get him ready for the upcoming new material and quizzes and go back and review the earlier concepts that he was struggling with. She did it with patience and kindness, together with rigorous attention to detail zeroing in on where he was going wrong in the problem. And Jill did it with humor! I would hear them laughing while in the Zoom session. Anytime your kid is laughing while doing something that is challenging, I consider that a win! He went into the AP test with confidence. As a parent, I got to take a deep breath and relax and let him know I had faith in him and his hard work with Jill. – Parent of Technology High School ’26
The tutoring was very helpful and makes me feel ready for college calculus. – Technology High School ’26
Jill has been so helpful to me all throughout high school. I had a calculus class which did not come easy to me but Jill was really good about simplifying each problem and making sure I understood each part of the assignment. I liked how I could talk it through with her and explain what I had trouble with. She was able to help break down each section which helped me finish with a good grade in the class and a deeper understanding of the subject. – St. Francis High School ’24 & University of Colorado ’28
Jill was amazing throughout my entire high school career from Advanced math freshman year through Calculus BC. She is extremely knowledgeable, explains things in a clear and helpful manner and was able to adapt to the curriculum I was presented with, helping me maintain A’s all throughout high school. She’s the best! – Berkeley High School ’26
I have never had a tutor like Jill, she has been an incredible resource throughout high school and college. I had to take a math class my sophomore year of college that I was not familiar with and Jill was able to help me as well as spend the time learning the material on her own. I was never afraid to ask questions and I became more confident with my math skills. I always looked forward to our tutoring sessions because I knew I would walk away feeling better about the material in class. I’m so thankful to have her and could not recommend her enough! – St. Francis High School ’23 & Indiana University ’27
My daughter was terrified to take physics in 9th grade and with your help had the best experience. She was able to grasp the material and finished the year with an A- which was a huge accomplishment for her. You supported her the entire year and gave her such confidence. Thank you. – Parent of Windward School ’29
I cannot recommend Jill’s tutoring services highly enough. Jill has been a gift to our family and of course most of all to our daughter who has grown and thrived in her class work thanks in large part to Jill’s terrific and consistent instruction and strong command of the material. She is so patient, flexible and responsive and has been a steady and reliable tutor over these past few years. We feel incredibly fortunate to have her supporting our daughter through her demanding studies and helping her achieve a high level of success. – Parent of Harvard-Westlake ’23
When my son began 10th grade, he was really struggling in Algebra 2. Working with Jill changed everything. Her support was essential to his success in that class, but more than that, she gave him something I hadn’t seen in a while: genuine confidence in himself as a math student. He started actually looking forward to their sessions, and more than once called her the best math teacher he’d ever had. This past year, Jill was with us again for Pre-Calculus, and the results spoke for themselves — he finished the year with a much higher grade than he would have otherwise, and more importantly, he felt good about himself getting there. We are so grateful. If your child is struggling in math and needs someone who can truly reach them, I cannot recommend Jill highly enough. – Parent of New Roads School ’27
Jill has been such an amazing resource for the past few years. She has helped me with geometry, chemistry, Algebra II, and Precalculus. Her teaching style is supportive and she is very informative at the same time. Each time I was confused about a concept, Jill would patiently explain and provide different example problems to make sure I really grasped it. With Jill’s support I was able to excel and gain confidence. I am so appreciative and grateful for her expertise. – Harvard-Westlake ’23
About 3 weeks into summer vacation, one of my daughters said, “I miss Jill. I can’t believe I’m not going to talk to her for a few months.” We weren’t talking about math or tutors or school. She was just expressing how much Jill had become a positive, supportive and fun part of her routine. How great is that? As a parent, I couldn’t be happier with Jill as a math tutor. My kids feel more confident in school and feel like they have a safe place to ask questions and express confusion. Having access to her is truly a gift. On top of that, coordinating schedules with Jill is quick and easy and she is always flexible. We have never had a tutor like this and wholeheartedly recommend her! – Parent of Harvard-Westlake ’23 and ’24
We called Jill to help my daughter prepare for an AP chemistry test. Unlike other tutors, Jill assessed my daughter’s weaknesses and areas where she needed support and addressed those areas without wasting any time. Jill is incredibly knowledgeable. And, more importantly, can communicate difficult concepts in ways that are easy to understand. My daughter shared that Jill was nice and great to work with. I can’t thank Jill enough. – Parent of Archie Williams High School ’22
Jill has been a tremendous asset to my daughter’s learning process. Not only is Jill extremely responsive and flexible with appointment scheduling, but she has been transformative in her ability to teach the concepts in a creative and patient way. Because of her expertise, Jill has brought such a positive light to complex concepts, making my daughter feel more confident in her ability to tackle future material. I am beyond grateful to have found such an instrumental teacher/tutor/mentor! – Parent of Harvard-Westlake ’23
Jill has been an incredibly helpful, thoughtful, and productive mentor for me during this past year. I have never felt more prepared and confident in my academic abilities than after working with Jill. She is able to take such complicated topics and make them feel manageable and extremely understandable. What is most unique about Jill to me is how personalized yet comprehensive our sessions are. I am massively thankful for all of her valuable learning strategies, accommodating teaching style, and her friendliness along the way. I genuinely always look forward to working with Jill and could not recommend her more! – Harvard-Westlake ’23
Jill Bush helped both my children with chemistry and she was exactly what we needed. They found her to be knowledgeable, clear, and friendly! She can help with short-term test prep and long-term support. My kids are so different but she worked great for both of them! – Parent of Brentwood ’21 and Windward ’23
What really stands out to me about Jill is her ability to meet me at my level, and simplify extremely complex concepts in ways that match my level of understanding. Beyond her command of the subject matter, Jill is always on time and a pleasure to work with. – Harvard-Westlake ’15 & Kenyon College ’19
