I would like to create a memorable BLOG site, etc, and she genuinely demonstrates enthusiasm for her learners as seeing through their eyes so to speak. She has no need to be patient, though I am a bit of a novice, because she ENJOYS what she is doing or teaching. Will most GLADLY continue the learning process with Jenny and the many wonderful features the BLOG offers to someone who likes to dabble in creative writing,etc.

Tom taught me to leverage skills and education from my past, and things others will know and remember, to develop these skills. Tom also took the time to read through example work I had on hand. He gave me direct feedback (good and bad) along with solutions on how to better my writing, such as the Literacy Definition book. Even though I went in needing help with creative writing, I left with so much more.

Mark is very dedicated and brings about a variety of topics to focus on for every class, be it grammar, persuasive speech, writing essays, stories, situational leadership, creative writing, reading, analogies, verbal reasoning, comprehension etc. He challenges my kid and motivates her to do more and more. My child loves Mark's tutoring and has been showing great interest in pursuing the classes as she herself sees the improvement.
