Julianne T.

47 ELA lessons

We couldn’t be happier with the progress our sixth-grade son has made with Sarah as his ELA tutor. ELA has always been challenging for him, and he had begun to dread it. For the first time in three years, he’s genuinely excited about ELA! We saw near-immediate improvements after he started working with Sarah—he recently earned a 98 on his ELA test, a success he attributes directly to her sessions.
Ying G.

133 ELA lessons

She is great! My girls feel so comfortable with her and she gave both of them tremendous help and guidance in their ELA studies. Both of of my kids are in gifted schools. Before they started with Lisa, their ELA were somewhere in the middle of their class compared against their peers. 2 years later, both of their ELA teachers said they are their model students and are at top of their classes. My older one said she feels so confident in writing now and said she learned a lot from Lisa.
Gloria O.
