From the onset of our first encounter, Tanya has been professional and thoughtful. She met with our 8 year old and in one session identified academic goals and developed a clear tutoring plan. Over the course of only one month we have seen great improvement in our child's reading and confidence. Tanya works individually with our child and checks in with us frequently to keep us informed as to concerns and progress. Tanya has been timely and easy to communicate with. Perhaps most importantly, our child looks forward to her tutoring time with Tanya.

Tanya is awesome. She is patient and works well with young children. She really understands what the child's needs are and is able to asses accurately where they are and what they need. She is always on time and prepared. I 100% recommend her.

I hesitated to hire a tutor because my son is so young. He is only 5, but he is one of the youngest in his kindergarten class and he needs a little boost when it comes to his writing and letter formation. Tanya is so patient with him, and she makes her lessons fun. I was worried a one hour session would be too much for my son, after a full day of school. On the contrary, he looks forward to his visits with Tanya and I can overheard him laughing and talking excitingly when he is with her. Tanya has taught my son little tricks to correct his letter formation that he can easily understand, and his writing has improved after just two visits. I would highly recommend Tanya!
