We always feel so calm when we talk to her. She has been assisted my daughter in whatever topic my daughter feels like to improve. She has been tutoring my daughter in writing techniques, SAT vocabulary, Latin and essays for applying to a scholarship. Ms. Mary is always prepared for every session and always on time. She is very organized and responsible. She writes us the summary right after each session. We just like that so much.

I found a few tutors in my area by doing a Google search but after reading their bios, I felt that Sarah would be a good fit. Was she ever?! She came to our house, introduced herself and sat down with my daughter. After asking just a couple of questions to see what the current material was, Sarah jumped right in and began to help. Much was accomplished in just one hour. I was amazed!
