I wish we had found Francesca sooner! My son struggled with understanding math and connecting with his teacher for most of the year. Francesca made an instant connection and taught in a way my son could relate too. He went from an F on a test to an A on his very next test after just two sessions with Francesca! Amazing!
Marcia W.

We had my son assessed for learning disabilities recently and he does have special learning needs. The tester's gave many recommendations on how to improve his academic performance and about half of them we were already doing with Ms. Annette! Her knowledge of different learning needs and her willingness to tailor every lesson toward your child's learning style makes Ms. Annette an amazing tutor.
