Long helped our son with Algebra 1. We saw immediate results after the very first session. Our son had a low C when Long started and he finished with a high B. More importantly our son has a new found confidence in his studies and this is 100% attributed to Long. We highly recommend him.

Elena has tutored my son in Algebra 1 for several months now. He can be easily distracted and Elena has been very patient with him and very good at getting him to focus again. Thanks to Elena he understands his homework better and has shown improvement in his grade. Plus she's a really nice person.
