Temisha is amazing. My daughter has always been very good in math, however at the beginning of this 2015/16 school year I realized something wasn't right and began looking for a tutor. Temisha is a heaven sent, my 12 year old daughter no longer is stressed not not comprehending the information provided by the teacher (even though help is solicited during class).

Well, against all odds and Garnet's amazing tutoring ability, I not only passed the class, but I finished with an 87 overall. The last exam I took I actually led the class with a score of a 99!
