Success stories

Real stories from real people

Since 2005, Wyzant has provided a way for people to learn any subject in a way that works for them.

Richard B.

7 lessons

She has helped our special needs student tremendously. Our son needs the extra one one one attention due to having dyslexia and a processing disorder. Each of her sessions are tailored to him personally. She takes the time after the sessions to tell us the methods she is using, why they are helpful, and what she will do next time. In addition, Jocelyn is supportive, punctual, and flexible (in reason). We will continue to work with her as long as possible!
Sue S.

110 lessons

Besides her advanced teaching skills, she also has the patience, understanding and sense of humor needed to work with special needs children. One of her greatest strengths is her capability to quickly pinpoint the exact areas a child needs help with the most and develop an individual teaching plan that incorporates all those areas into each lesson. She leaves very detailed notes after each lesson on what she covered.
Laurie P.

13 lessons

I chose Ann originally because of her experience working with special needs children. Ann has proven herself to be an awesome tutor and person. Ann did an initial assessment of my daughter's math needs and continues to assess my daughter's progress and needs on a regular basis. She is patient and kind and helps my daughter to stay on task - not always easy as my daughter can be very distractible and impulsive.
