A True Academic Professional

Jade was informative, timely, professional and welcoming. My daughter struggles in Reading from a Phonological Disorder, Specified Learning Disorder with Mild to Moderate Reading Impairment, and Attention Deficit Disorder. Jade was very patient, thorough, and positive! My daughter instantly felt comfortable with her and is excited for her next lesson.

A blessing

I’m so happy to have found a knowledgeable and patient tutor like Jade. I have been out of college a while. I needed to do a lot of refreshing to prepare for the teas exam.

knowledgeable and patient tutor.

She taught me not to panic, but to think of analogies and acronyms on how to remember certain material. She also very detailed in her notes so you will not miss any information.

Goal oriented and motivating Tutor

Ms. Jade has been helping our daughter since Aug 2019. My daughter had significant delays in reading. She boosted her reading almost 2 grade levels in few months of intensive support. We had tried multiple approaches before coming across Ms. Jade. She is the first one to show so much progress in my daughters reading. The school team were impressed also with her reading gains. Highly recommend her if you are looking at targeted help.

GREAT ELA TEACHER

My experience with Jade was phenomenal. She was friendly, and immediately put me at ease! She helped me successfully pass the Praxis II 5047 writing portion. I scored 9/12 on the portion she tutored me on. We met for two sessions and I know my success can be attributed to our sessions.
