Multi talented Allison!!

Multi talented Allison!!
Allison’s smile, endless patience and being so easy to communicate with are the first things I love about her. My son is not the most cooperative student and Allison is easily able to read him, motivate him and have such good communication with!! Then there’s her ability to teach several different subjects and have a wide angle of understanding of how things should be and what to do if they’re not... For example- she uses her lessons time to go between teaching different skills and subjects that are the most important on that day. She evaluates what’s needed to be done, weather there’s a math test coming up or English grammar issues or not planning his time correctly, and immediately able to pin point the source of his difficulty. This flexibility saves me, and my son, a lot of time going between different teachers. I highly recommend Allison!!

First session very productive
My daughter already made good progress in her first tutoring session with Allison. They reviewed math homework for mistakes, revamped how daily journals will be coded, and provided valuable insight on study techniques for history. Looking forward to future sessions!

An amazing tutor for special needs
You could see my son's face relax as he worked with Allison. He was so happy at the end of our first session and proudly announced on the way home that he thought Allison was going to be a great tutor for him!

Great first session
I have four year old twins boys and yesterday was our first session. It went great! Allison was immediately able to relate to the boys as if they had known her for awhile. She has was really good at getting them to participate and learn even though they thought they we just having fun.
Christie, 226 lessons with AllisonTutor responded:Thank you so much! I really enjoyed working with you and the boys and look forward to spending much more time together!
Patient & positive
We've only had her 3 times but our son is very comfortable & motivated to do well. I'm excited to see the positive impact she will have on him. He's in the 5th grade.

Extraordinary tutor for special needs child with behavior issues.
Allison has been tutoring our 12 year old daughter for nearly 2 years, 4 times/week. She is incredible at managing behavior issues which compound learning difficulties. Our daughter has made progress in more complicated addition/subtraction, multiplication and early division. Allison is adept at finding methods to help kids understand the concepts of math. For example, she taught our daughter division by applying multiplication concepts which were easier for her to learn. Additionally, Allison is preparing our daughter for her bat mitzvah next year. She has made great strides in reading Hebrew. Allison is a valuable 'member of our family' who provides professional, disciplined and compassionate tutoring for our daughter. We are grateful to have her in our daughter's life.
