She is teaching pre K and phonics, alphabet with my 5 year old grandson. She's amazing! I am in awe of how focused she keeps my grandson during the entire hour of tutoring. She has a gift with children! Jack responds very well to her and she is very knowledgeable and gifted!
Melanie P.

109 Phonics lessons

He enjoys the reading games she plays with him because he says, "It's not more homework, its fun!" She has a very down-to-earth, patient and caring tutoring style. Edith isn't afraid to sit on the floor and truly aims to make her students comfortable. We hired Edith to help our son with his phonics skills, reading fluency and comprehension but most importantly his confidence. We highly recommend Edith because her experience and love for reading is sure helping our son!
Llacey S.

24 Phonics lessons

My 4-year old son has only been working for Helen for 3 sessions now, but I have seen an INCREDIBLE increase in his reading fluency. Before he would stumble with using the phonics sounds and would have great difficulty in decoding words. But, now, he's flying through words with confidence and accuracy. After the first session, Helen assessed his reading level and provided me with a daily (and very simple) lesson plan to work on with him.
