Abbey S.

11 lessons

I am very unfamiliar with the content, during our first 5 minutes Michael walked me through the best way to start my study process, key points/key words to target, & overall encouraging me that I will get the results I want to achieve. I feel very fortunate that I found Michael looking forward to the 15+hours working with him. I did a great job on choosing a great tutor!
Iris G.

1 lesson

Stacy arrived early and came fully prepared with a folder with work geared toward his grade level. She knew exactly what he needed to do to improve and she even worked with him emotionally when he got frustrated by encouraging him to talk about what frustrated him about the work. He left smiling and feeling confident. My only issue is trying to work out a regular schedule. Excellent tutor.
Christine H.

25 lessons

She came armed with two mini white boards and worked problems until my son got them. If one way to explain it didn't work, she found another tactic. The whiteboards were easy ways for her to show and him to practice. She was patient, encouraging, and very involved. She stayed on top of his assignments and grades and was a lifesaver to us in a critical time. Plus, she's a very interesting and kind person. This is the strongest possible recommendation for Angie.
