I loved how she worked closely with my daughter on all sections to discover her strengths and weaknesses. She was also great at breaking down the work into manageable pieces and assigning homework between sessions. Sonia is also very kind, patient, and encouraging. She was just what we needed to take some of the stress away and make preparation as pleasant as possible. I think she would work well with all personalities and needs.

As Nicole has taught at a university level for many years I wasn't sure what to expect for a one on one learning experience, but she has proven to be an excellent private tutor! She is professional, fun, encouraging and positive, and goes as slow or as fast as I need through the material. She is also very flexible and is very easy to get a hold of to change or make plans with, which has been perfect for my schedule.

I am in the early stages of learning about the dissertation process. It takes me a little longer than average to begin understanding how to apply the elements. Milton was very patient with me and provided me with guidance that helped me to gain a better understanding of the elements. I was nervous about gaining an understanding and Milton was able to provide encouraging words that calmed me down and helped me to build confidence in myself.
