Angie makes social studies fun. My twin girls age 9 usually do not like social studies. Angie tells stories, shows pictures, maps and video clips that make social studies interesting. I recommend Angie highly.

My son has worked with Rodney and the most important thing that Rodney has offered my son is that he keeps him on task by keeping his homework fun and interesting. Rodney is well versed in computers and can integrate the use of computers into the homework session, which is important at the middle school level. Rodney is patient and conscientious. Rodney has helped my son with Social Studies and Science.

So while her hour is focused on tutoring, there is some nice chatting back and forth between them as well. We hired Mrs. K. to work with our daughter on reading and have been so appreciative that she is willing to change her lesson plan when our child feels like she needs help studying for a Social Studies test or is having trouble writing an Essay for class. She is reliable and punctual and communicates quickly if there is a scheduling issue.
