10 ELA lessons

After 4-5 lessons, the child showed a full understanding of the proposed “template” and proved it by receiving the full credit on the ELA benchmark test. We will continue with the sessions to reinforce the acquired knowledge. I highly recommend Lorraine to those preparing for the ELA test or anyone who’s simply looking for improvement.
Danuta M.

32 ELA lessons

Mrs.Lorraine has been working with my 8 year old twins since March on their ELA . They love her, she makes them feel very comfortable. She is always on time, prepared and chooses the material according to each son needs. I already see an improvement in my sons writing. I highly recommend Mrs.Lorraine for anyone looking for an improvement in reading, writing or preparing for ELA state test. We will continue to work with her.
Mark K.

1 lesson

He showed me two book resources for future learning. This was well worth the time and money. Zach even gave two speeches that I learned a lot from. He is an excellent communicator and a genuinely nice guy ready to work with you. He is encouraging and that helps. This hour was interactive with lots of question and answer time that I appreciated. A five star experience. Highly recommended.
