Glenda C.

31 lessons

His 1st grade teacher said there was no way he would get to grade level before 2nd grade. He is now going into 2nd grade reading...slowly but reading! His teacher was amazed at his progress. He would not have been able to accomplish this with just home help. Belinda has been so patient and encouraging to my son. Her teaching methods are individualized specifically to his learning style. She has years of experience and I am privileged to have her tutor my son.

Petrina is an excellent tutor. My son (1st grade) has responded very well to her, much better than I had hoped. She is patient, well-organized, thorough, and has a lot of experience. She has gone well beyond what I would have expected from her, which I greatly appreciate. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. I only wish I had found her sooner!

Jackie is an amazing tutor for both of my sons (3rd grade and 1st grade). She is patient, kind, professional, and honestly knows how to connect with kids. My boys truly enjoy their sessions with her, and I’ve already seen improvements in their confidence and reading. She’s everything you’d hope for in a tutor, and I highly recommend her!
