Amazing on what she does!
Ms Paulla's manner of teaching is so wonderful and refreshing!! She’s patient and supportive, but really knows how to motivate my son. She’s great at building confidence and keeping lessons fun and engaging through a variety of activities that improve conversation and reading skills. I would definitely recommend her and we are so blessed to have her.

Paulla Was Great!
She set up a new laptop computer for my 75 year old mother who requires much patience and understanding for her learning ability. I highly recommend her service!

Tutor who loves tutoring
English is my second language and Paulla really helped me to get into it. Our lessons lasted six months and unfortunately we have to terminate our learning because I'm relocating to another state. All lessons were very flexible and customized: we never got stuck with some predefined plan, but instead Paulla was always ready to explain me everything that is not obvious in English and we were free to deviate from the general line and spend time on exploring something interesting - some particular language features or some facts from the American culture or history or whatever else.

Great Tutor
English is my second language. Paulla is an excellent, smart and very supportive tutor. She is very good at explaining grammar and spelling. If you are looking for a tutor who can help you with your English skills, I definitely recommend Paulla!!
Olga, 9 lessons with PaullaTutor responded:Thanks Olga! I know it's tough to be in school, have a family and home life, do your studies, and try to learn English too. You're doing great and I promise to give you my best attention!
Great English tutor
Paulla pays a lot of attention to my mistakes in ACT English practice exams or just in general. After our meetings I felt more sure of myself than I was before. Much THANKS to her. I'm sure Paulla's help will give you the best result on the ACT exam!! Thank you, Paulla!
Julian, 8 lessons with PaullaTutor responded:Don't sell yourself short Julian. You're very smart and a great student!
Very patient!
I have a daughter who can be sometimes shy to strangers but Paulla was able to reach my daughter and my daughter actually enjoys Paulla's visits. She is extremely patient and knowledgeable with her understanding math. Paulla is reaching my daughter and helping her to understand math where others have failed. Thanks Paulla!!
Marlene, 5 lessons with PaullaTutor responded:I'm delighted to be of help and I love working with your daughter. She's very kind and polite. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity!
Very Patient
I'm glad Paulla is on board to help my daughter with her Math. My daughter was diagnosed with PDD (Pervasive Developmental Delay)as well as anxiety. She is a very normal-bright girl, just took a little longer in hitting certain "Milestones." Paulla is very patient with her, and my daughter likes her a lot. It's great to have Paulla as part of her support team. Thanks.
Wanda, 66 lessons with PaullaTutor responded:Your daughter is very kind, respectful, and quite artistically talented! I enjoy working with her. My goal is to combine her love of art/drawing with Math to help her learn! Wanda is a fantastic "hands on" mom scholastically speaking when it comes to her daughter's needs. She's great at providing detail and direction for what her daughter needs help with.
Incredible Teacher
She is a wonderful Teacher. Every time she surprises me. She always brings new learning materials. I am so lucky. Thank God I found her. Thank you.
F. Leyla, 19 lessons with PaullaTutor responded:Leyla is a great student. Willing to learn, giving her all, and open. I believe that teachers should forever be students themselves. I also believe if a teacher's mind is open, he or she can learn from his or her students. I certainly have already learned from Leyla!
