1 lesson

In 2 hours they had only completed 1 ½ pages of math. I was really hoping they would have gotten more done. (3)3rd session 5th reading passage about Firefighters my daughter was having a really hard time understanding the questions and really needed more support from Janet. Within 30 minutes my daughter had only written down five words. I kept popping in because I noticed they were not getting a lot done. (4)Janet suggested she give my daughter the answers to her passages so they could get done faster???

My son had great respect for him and they really bonded well. Therefore, that led to my son really building his confidence in his math skills and doing well on his EOG's for 5th grade and doing well in his Honors Math in 6th grade Middle school. I would recommend Mr. Clint as a tutor. He is very knowledgeable and relates well with children. I am thankful for him helping my son.

6 weeks after tutoring with Melissa she has gone up 6 levels over the sessions. Her new Reading Instructional level is 5th grade 6 months Essentially, in a matter of a month my niece jumped 10 levels and reached 5th grade and 6 months! Please note, she's had an IEP team for 3 years and we've never experienced the degree of advancement like we have under Melissa's sessions. I highly recommend Melissa!
