Lily is a great tutor! She's very patient with my daughter and my daughter loves her. Her teaching techniques have helped my daughter improve in her reading and writing. Lily is very flexible and I highly recommend her to anyone with special needs or who struggles in reading or writing. Thank you!

I liked that she gave me references and they were excellent. I enjoy her experience with special needs and challenges my daughter to excel. She doesn't take any flack from her and she respects and does the work she asks. Soon, I hope, she will do the work for herself.

William is patient and developed a trusting relationship with my son very quickly. I can't say enough about how talented William is in connecting and working with students.
