Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor Maria B.

Maria is very efficient...I logged on yesterday and she contacted me the same day and was able to assist my 17 year old son with his Spanish assignment, they looked at a video in the module, she gave him quizlet notes to review and they went over his CANVAS system to get an idea of what the assignment was that is due on 02/07
