Barbara is phenomenal! Not only was Barbara creative and patient, and but she made it fun. Our reluctant reader couldn't wait to get to Barbara's tutoring session each week. After working with Barbara intensively over the summer, our child is now not only enjoys reading, but is reading above grade level. The skills and tools that our child learned have made all the difference in her confidence and abilities. So much so, that she no longer needs additional tutoring.

Kate has gone the extra mile to retype Alisa's lessons and to study the literature associated with these lessons. But most of all Kate has improved Alisa's reading significantly and we thank her greatly for this. Besides Kate's evident teaching ability, she is compassionate, thoughtful, flexible; and Alisa, even though at times not wanting to do more study, enjoyed working with Kate and has been motivated to work hard on her reading.
