But she took it one step further and taught him creative writing too! He was lacking in that area and such big improvements have been made! My son now enjoys writing and he has a certain confidence that he feels he too can write interesting things. And it is true! I read my sons creative writing pieces and they are so good! My son loved Jennifer. She has a certain casual friendly way about her that kids feel that she is on their side.

Tom has been an exceptional teacher for our son. With his guidance, our son has consistently improved his vocabulary, creative writing skills and grammar. Tom’s vast knowledge of various subjects allowed him to quickly build a rapport with my son who is a gifted student and needs to be constantly challenged to stay interested. We would highly recommend Tom as a tutor.

I am seeing significant improvement in my child's vocabulary and writing as early as after 4 classes. Mark is very dedicated and brings about a variety of topics to focus on for every class, be it grammar, persuasive speech, writing essays, stories, situational leadership, creative writing, reading, analogies, verbal reasoning, comprehension etc. He challenges my kid and motivates her to do more and more.
