Incredible Tutor

Tricia S. is absolutely the best tutor I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She is very confident, knowledgeable and well prepared to handle whatever comes her way. I will definitely keep her as my go to.

Knowledgable, kind, and patient tutor

Tricia is a kind, attentive, patient English tutor helping my son improve his writing skills. She takes the time to work on assignments, reinforcing the skills she sees my son needs to improve to become a better writer. She focuses on the process and ensures she gives positive input to the work my son does when he does it correctly to provide him with the confidence to do right. I highly recommend her.

Ideal tutor for my daughter

After sending inquiries to three different tutors, Tricia S. was the first to respond. Communication with her has always been clear and she provides responses quickly through email, cell phone, or texting. After our initial meeting, I felt she would be a great tutor to partner with my daughter in order to pass the math segment of the GED. Tricia arrived with an open mind and wanted to know what our goals were and what kind of timeline we were considering. She never projected a rigid time frame, pace, or curriculum yet offered several suggestions on how to accomplish the goal. She provides honest feedback on progress being made and areas that need more focus. Since beginning these tutoring sessions, my daughter has found a professional that inspires learning in her least favorite subject.
