"I just wanted to shoot you (Gail) a note to tell you the great news- Dylan had an unbelievable year! He made high honors all three terms, and even earned an A+ for the year in history. I know his success was in big part due to the work he did with you. It was a bummer that we couldn’t continue this year, but I think you gave him the foundation to work well in his school-based academic support program. Thank you for the awesome work you did with Dylan."
Thanks,
Jess
"Holly’s skills go beyond her knowledge of academic content. By getting to know each child individually, Holly develops personal connections that make them feel valued and empowered. The time Holly takes to develop these relationships, translates to a student who is motivated, wants to learn and is willing to put in time and effort."

"We have had such a positive experience working with Gail and our daughter looks forward to each session with her. Gail has taken the time from our very first meeting to understand how she can best support our daughter academically but what I didn’t expect was how much support I as the parent would also receive. As a working mom of four, it can be difficult even finding the time to sit down and work through the assignments that my daughter needs support with, but with Gail’s help, I am able to know exactly how to best support my daughter and am given tools and guidance along the way. She not only communicates frequently with me, but directly with our daughter’s teachers as well. Gail’s support has been invaluable, and we very much look forward to continuing to work with her."

“Hannah supports the diverse learning needs of her students. She provides check-ins to gauge their understanding of the class content and/or answer questions. My child is comfortable asking Hannah for support and speaks highly of the relationship she has developed with her.”

"Holly is one of the most innovative, organized teachers I have ever known. She is always on the forefront of new technology and educational strategies to help her students succeed. My daughter still refers to her as her favorite math teacher after seven years!"

“Hannah communicates with families regarding learning expectations and performance in a manner that is accessible and user friendly. Hannah answered questions and addressed concerns regarding (Student’s) math performance while providing support and suggestions for additional practice. Hannah gave feedback and identified potential reasons for success and challenges in school.”

"Gail developed a wonderful rapport with Nick. Her quiet, matter-of-fact and caring demeanor helped him to trust her instructions when others had been much less successful. She proved herself to be a flexible professional who was able to work with Nick and his teachers to make sure he was managing his workload from home. Gail worked with him on an individual basis to learn and apply organizational strategies on his classwork. She helped him organize his emails, manage his many Google classrooms, plan projects, stay on top of assignments and guided him in being able to reach out to teachers."
