70 Phonics lessons

Ms. Ginger is a phenomenal tutor. She has been working with my son for about 5 months. When he first started his lessons with Ms. Ginger he was not very excited to go to a tutor for help with school. Since that time and with a lot of patience from Ms. Ginger; he has started to enjoy his lessons. His penmanship and spelling have increased tremendously and his reading comprehension has grown as well due to her review of basic phonics and grammar rules.

4 Phonics lessons

I was looking for a tutor to work with on my English speaking. Sheryl asked me what I needed and what I considered as a priority. She is very attentive and asks you regulary if the exercise that she offers are useful or not, so we can go a step farther if wanted. We started with phonics exercises to improve my pronounciation. Sheryl also gave me some grammar and vocabulary exercices to work on on my own and was open to answering my questions.
