Debi K.

128 Avid lessons

Our daughter, who is an avid reader and writer, still struggled with Language Arts during Covid and the remote curriculum. During the summer, Mikayla helped her prepare for the next school year with reading, writing, including creative writing, etc. - even coming up with her own ideas and curriculum for them to enjoy together. Each year has gotten better and better, and Mikayla has also been fantastic with homework, essays, editing, providing feedback, achieving the perfect balance between help and independence.

Sunny Y.

9 Avid lessons

What was most helpful in the review sessions was the formulaic approach in the writing and reading that allowed for greater consistency and accuracy in the reading section. After 4 reviews I noticed my practice tests going from a 650 range to a 730-770 range. Not being an avid reader myself getting the insight to read in a more critical way and categorizing wrong answers choices gave me a more confident approach in the SAT reading overall. She has been a massive help! Ryan, California
