So far my daughter who is a junior in high school has had two lessons with Molly and she has been great. She provides us with additional material regarding study skills, is really responsive to questions and seems knowledgeable in multiple subject areas. She is helping my daughter with chemistry, Latin, history and general study skills. Plus she is just a nice person! I would recommend her.

Linda is very patient and professional. My 15 year old son needed some help with study skills and he was having problems in Honors Algebra. Linda has given him many helpful tips to stay organized and several study skills. My son said Linda explains Algebra in a way that he understands much more than his current teacher. I highly recommend Linda as a tutor.
