“The ACT went so great and I owe it all to you Kari!  Thank you so much for being there for me and teaching me. You truly are a remarkable woman, and any student is lucky to have you, just like me.”

“I have enjoyed working with you in algebra and learning your techniques that I will continue to use throughout college.  Your fondness of math inspired me to work hard and become a better student.  And your unique ways of teaching opened my capacity for math.”
– E. B., Rancho Park Student

“Kari Miller is amazing! I started seeing her in middle school when I was failing math. Not only did she help me with math, but, once we fixed that problem, she began helping me with everything else, from writing to reading Shakespeare.  Kari is so much more than a tutor.  She doesn’t just teach you facts and tell you the answers; she teaches you how to approach the problem and the fundamentals.”
– T. R., Los Angeles Student

“When I first started my tutoring sessions with Dr. Miller, I told her that I always sat in the back of my math classroom, and would never raise my hand. She assured me that one day soon I’d be sitting up front and would be volunteering to answer questions! This seemingly impossible vision has become a reality, due to Dr. Miller’s patient review sessions, and optimistic encouragement. I’ve gained knowledge of math, and also useful study skills that translate to all my other school subjects. In addition to the invaluable information, with Dr. Miller’s help, I’ve gained self confidence in the classroom, and that is something I appreciate every day.”
– W. K., Pacific Palisades Student

“I have had the pleasure of working with Kari for over five years. When I first started meeting with her in 7th grade, I was failing Math class. Over the years, she has worked with me on techniques and approaches to learning and test taking.  Her patience and bubbly personality always boosts my confidence. Her unique methods and games motivate me and keep me engaged during my class and our sessions.  I never thought I could succeed in math but thanks to Kari, math has become one of my best subjects.  She is the best teacher I have ever had.”

– A. T., Santa Monica Parent

“Our 12-year old daughter used to dread math because she could not understand the concepts.  She would become very frustrated and it affected her self-esteem.  As her mother, I struggled, too, because I could not help her with math without further frustrating her.  Through Miller Educational Excellence, our daughter now actually sees the “fun” in math and looks forward to her sessions.  We see that as a huge milestone accomplishment.  Our daughter’s self-esteem has improved and it reflects positively in her schoolwork.  Thanks Miller Educational Excellence!”
