Ying G.

111 ELA lessons

She is great! My girls feel so comfortable with her and she gave both of them tremendous help and guidance in their ELA studies. Both of of my kids are in gifted schools. Before they started with Lisa, their ELA were somewhere in the middle of their class compared against their peers. 2 years later, both of their ELA teachers said they are their model students and are at top of their classes. My older one said she feels so confident in writing now and said she learned a lot from Lisa.
