Gail has a wonderful, child-friendly, fully stocked classroom in her home. We were always very comfortable waiting during our tutoring visits-you can sit in the classroom and observe or you can sit in another room and read/watch TV. Gail is excellent with communication and we always knew what they worked on and she reviewed our daughters progress with us. If you are looking for a caring, patient and experienced tutor for your child I would recommend giving Gail a try.

She's very professional, efficient and easy to learn from. My daughter has learned so much in a short period of time. She's more confident about her work and has a positive attitude toward math and doesn't mind taking quizzes or exams. She enjoys doing her homework and helping other students understand their work. My daughter is very comfortable, relaxed and at ease with Casandra's tutoring and I highly recommend her to everyone!! We love Casandra and thank you kindly.
