Abby tutors my 7th grade daughter in ELA and she has shown a marked improvement in her writing and reading comprehension Abby is very patient and calm and at the same time keeps her interested and engaged. She always leaves her with exercises to continue with until the next session. We (including my daughter) are very happy with Abby as a tutor and would recommend her to others in a heartbeat.

Cheri is excellent! It has only been a few weeks and I can already see a great improvement in our 9yr old girl that Cheri has been tutoring. The lessons are fun but very effective, our girl is at ease with Cheri and enjoys every session of tutoring with her so much that she asked for the sessions to be longer. Cheri has helped her improve in spelling, writing and all aspects of ELA. We look forward to working with Cheri.

She took the time to get to know her and to learn her strengths and weaknesses. Our daughter has progressed wonderfully with Ellie's tutoring. She has a much better command of math concepts and ELA strategies, her grades have improved, and her confidence has increased. I appreciate that Ellie customizes her lessons to match my daughter's needs. She challenges her, encourages her, and supports her. My daughter found a friend as well as a tutor in Ellie.
