Barb is very organized and communicates clearly each week to both my daughter and me about what they have done and what to do next. My daughter is feeling more confident each week and that is great to see. Barb also researched and forwarded info to me on how to get my daughter accommodations for testing. Besides being organized and effective, she is just a nice person. I am very impressed with her and highly recommend her for ACT tutoring.

Manny is a wonderful tutor who is very patient with my daughter in reviewing math concepts for the ACT exam. He will explain the concepts more than one way until my daughter understands it. As a parent, I like the fact that he provides her with homework to continue practicing the concepts until the next tutoring session. He is reliable and very easy to get a hold of. I highly recommend him! Thanks Manny!
