Lea T.

1 Reading lesson

We hired Ezequiel to help our 6-year-old who was having some difficulty reading. Ezequiel was fantastic! He had a great way of making the learning playful while staying on task, and he included comprehension instead of just drilling words, which made the point of reading more palpable for my son. He is very patient and great at connecting with kids.

8 Reading lessons

Rosemary has been very helpful and encouraging to my child who is struggling with reading and writing. While being patient and kind Rosemary has effective techniques that encourage my son to practice reading and feel confident in his ability to learn difficult material. He looks forward to meeting with Rosemary and even asks about her on days that we are not able to meet.
