Perfect tutor!
I was extremely nervous about my environmental science paper and was on the brink of giving up. Valerie quickly changed my mindset! She was very patient and made sure I was confident in what I was writing. 5 stars isn’t enough for her rating. Thanks again!

Patient and tactical tutor
Valerie was very patient in getting our first call set up to discuss how she could help our daughter. Once we set up our first session our daughter said she felt so much better about doing her book report because Valerie created a working document to follow in getting the book report done. She broke down the work into smaller pieces that were manageable and helped her know what to do.

Calm, helpful, great help with study skills
Valerie has been helping our daughter with general study skills, Earth Science content, and organizing her writing. Our daughter's science grade has improved, her confidence has as well, and she feels much more organized heading into a rather large first research writing assignment. I look forward to seeing the end result of this.
