My son has worked with Rodney and the most important thing that Rodney has offered my son is that he keeps him on task by keeping his homework fun and interesting. Rodney is well versed in computers and can integrate the use of computers into the homework session, which is important at the middle school level. Rodney is patient and conscientious. Rodney has helped my son with Social Studies and Science.

Ms. Terry was always so patient and it helped my daughter to focus on the subject and ask questions. We would meet during school year and through summer. Worked mostly on reading comprehension during summer and on math, reading and social studies during the school months. Over time my child gained skills and confidence, and acquired excellent work habits. Ms. Terry is an outstanding teacher. We cannot thank her enough for her help.

We come from Europe and arrived with two girls starting school (7th and 10th graders) with barely a few words of English. We hired Laura for ESL but she proved to be very helpful with my girl's homework. She patiently reviewed lessons in Language Arts, but also in Social studies, Sciences and Civics. We appreciate her versatility as she did not focus only on ESL but often came with resources directly related to the girls' needs.
