Grace has been such a pleasure to work with! As a certified Barton System tutor she takes great care in helping our daughter decipher language working with her dyslexia. I really appreciate the explicit instruction that is specifically geared to help students with reading and spelling difficulties. Having a tutor that follows a curriculum to progress is very reassuring, making it easy to track results. Grace has been a perfect addition to our daughter's education.
