Gabriela is a patient tutor and explains each step in detail making sure you understand the point she is landing. She made me feel comfortable and helped me understand things that I didn't know about grammar. I would recommend Gabriela because she has a passion for teaching.

At $25/hr., and believe me she's worth so much more, Elizabeth's not in it for the money. Elizabeth really wants to see our children succeed and with her your child will. You will be amazed at the results. So if you need a tutor who is well versed in multi-sensory teaching for your child, then this is the tutor for you. Elizabeth is extremely knowledgeable on how to teach struggling readers to read and she understands the special needs of our children.
