Ileane has been an amazing piece of what helps my special needs son learn, grow and achieve with school. Her knowledge of IEP's and curriculum have been key in helping me advocate for his success, and in helping him with his learning development. Ileane picks up on deficits and concerns that are missed by his teachers and even myself. She is an integral part of the team.

Kelly agreed to work with us during this very uncertain and distressing time for our daughter. Unbelievable! She worked her schedule around seizures and math tests and so much more. She literally helped to rebuild our daughter's confidence and grades. I cannot say enough about the outstanding work Kelly did for us and our daughter. I especially recommend her for those who may find themselves in a special needs situation. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Kelly.

Katherine has been a wonderful tutor for my 7 year old special needs son this summer. From the start, she established a caring relationship with him and that has made a huge difference in his willingness to do the work. She understands his academic and emotional needs well and teaches in a creative and flexible way. He looks forward to his visits with Katherine! I highly recommend her as a tutor.
