My son enjoys going to tutor with Ms. Cara. She is very good with him and understanding his needs. Ms. Cara is great a letting me know his strengths and what we need to work on. More importantly to me and for my son she is familiar with special needs and it makes it easier when he is having a bad day. He always leaves Ms. Cara happier then when he got there. She is great!!

We were making up for lost work as my daughter had been sick, she still did not come well prepared to accomplish the goals for that lesson (took ½ hour more than planned, yet we did not make much progress.) In my opinion, she is a nice person, good teaching style for elementary school kids, or kids who have special needs, very friendly but JUST NOT good for advanced level topics.

My son has a hard time transitioning into new settings, and Robin does a great job getting him engaged and interested to start his lesson. He works well with her. She is patient and shows she cares and is committed. My son is a special needs student and Robin is very knowledgeable in what exactly he needs. She is a great addition to our team!
