Dr. Susann is professional and punctual. She is excellent on teaching the subjects of writing and reading. She knows her stuff very well and is able to communicate her knowledge to students very efficiently. Now my daughter has improved significantly in her writing and grammar. She has not only done well in her school English writing assignments, but has gained confidence in her ability to write any essay successfully on her own.

As a homeschooling parent, I am so happy to have Cindy as a writing tutor! Writing is so hard to teach properly, but Cindy is very knowledgeable about the best methods, sequence, etc. She is also engaging with my child and obviously really cares about her as a writer and also as a person. She is sensitive to learning differences, and follows a developmentally appropriate approach to writing, building solid foundational skills and confidence.
