SATOMI M.

6 English lessons

He is very gentle and warm person and makes it fun for learning. I originally came from Japan and was surprised that Darrell knows real well about the Japanese history. It feels like that he has the knowledge of an encyclopedia of history. I would highly recommend Darrell for history and English tutor. He is excellent in what he does and I found it better than the rest. So I asked Darrell to teach English to my daughter from September.
Jordan R.

8 English lessons

My daughter had taken the ACT two times but it was still not as high as we would have liked. We went to Lena to assist in raising her English score. They met twice a week for three weeks, we have now received the results and my daughter raised her English score by six points and the overall score went up two points. We were very happy with Lena and definitely recommend her.
Megan D.

11 English lessons

She comes to each lesson very well prepared, often times communicating directly with my daughter prior to their meeting, in order to make it more effective. I sometimes times hear them laughing about various novels and comparisons. She has been flexible and willing to work on projects outside of Honors English. Nancy has truly been a great addition to my daughter's English experience. We highly recommend Nancy!
