Alicia is so so so wonderful! I just love how she works with my son who is on the spectrum. She is so creative and full of new ideas that will appeal to him. Her knowledge about how to educate kids with special needs is beyond what I could ask for. I can tell that she thinks of his needs before we meet each week. She brings the exact kind of things to read that he loves without me saying a word. She's kind and genuinely wants to help my son to learn.

Ben,Thank you for tutoring my son this past spring. I wasn't sure how it would work out...he hasn't taken an English course in years, and with his special needs is not keen on reading or writing. Plus your background is more on the high end students. I was concerned. I have known too many regular education teachers that do not want to be bothered, makes them nervous, or 'just don't get it' ever. It's a different learning environment. You take all the gold stars!!

Jason has been tutoring my 11 year old son with Math for a few months now. My son has struggled to remember basic math because he is ADHD. Through Jason's patience and clear experience in working with special needs children, my son is retaining his math and is able to use what he is learning to understand new concepts he is learning in school. Equally important, my son is happy to work with Jason and when I asked him if it was worth it his answer was YES!.
