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!

Michelle taught multiple terms and comprehension tips to prepare for 5th-grade reading. The terms helped her work on her 5th-grade summer package, we look forward to working with her during the school year.
Jeanne L.

7 lessons

Our son was struggling in 5th grade math. He would "shut down" and give up before he even started. Mary Ann was able to get him through his work and built his confidence with math games. He wasn't always outwardly responsive during the sessions and she was very patient with him and gave him breaks when he needed it. By the end of 5th grade he went from all 2's in math to 3's and a 4 in Geometry! He couldn't have done it without Mary Ann's help.
