I spent a wonderful two hours with a well prepared and very knowledgeable instructor. Mindy was a great help to me and showed me a lot in a short time. I look forward to spending time with her again.

I have been using Mindy's services for the past three years. Through the years she has helped me by proof reading my essays for high school AP classes, college applications, scholarships, and college classes. I received A's in both high school and college classes, I was accepted to all of the universities I applied to (University of Miami,University of Florida, Boston University, and the Medical Scholars Program at Florida Atlantic University), and won a handful of scholarships, such as being a silver knight honorable mention. Mindy is so reliable, quick, and very resourceful. Mindy comments on my papers using Microsoft word using the track changes feature. She always provides me with useful feedback via her comments and is open to discussing my papers over the phone. Not only is Mindy resourceful, she is also reliable. I can think of many instances in which I contacted Mindy within less than 24 hours panicking that a paper I was writing was not up to par. She always managed to find a time to work with me while being consistent with good judgement. Mindy is also honest and fair with her prices. While I am not a fan of writing, I am always confident with my papers after Mindy looks over them. She has been a great aid in my academic career, and I therefore highly recommend Mindy for her resourcefulness, reliability and honesty.

Mindy helped prepare my son for SAT, she is a dedicated tutor, patient and very insightful. He improved greatly in 5 weeks and now we are continuing with essay writing tutoring. She has given him the confidence to exceed and motivate him. She is trustworthy and reliable as well. I would recommend her to anyone seeking SAT tutoring.

Spanish is my native language and I had difficulties understanding English. Mindy has been tutoring me for more than a year in English, grammar, reading and writing. Since I've been working with Mindy, I have greatly improved my vocabulary, pronunciation, understanding English terminology, and writing. Mindy's tutoring has helped me in many areas of my life, such as my work environment and my social life. I feel more confident communicating in English now, and people have noticed my improvement. I will certainly recommend Mindy to people interested in learning proper English.

Mindy started tutoring my son (9 years old - 4th grade) last December. She has been teaching him in English and also preparing him for a Gifted Program Test. I wanted her to focus on the writing process, vocabulary, and spelling. Since the first class, my son was engaged in the lessons and focused on the work. Even though they are 2 hour lessons, he enjoys them and looks forward to the next session. He has improved his grades and he feels more comfortable writing essays and reading responses. He recently took the Gifted Program Test and his results were amazing. She not only taught him academic material, but also test-taking strategies that have helped him succeed in school. Mindy is also very punctual and responsible. She usually brings different and challenging learning material to teach him that keeps him busy and interested every time she comes. I would definitely recommend her.

Alison C. from Fort Lauderdale, FL
After being quoted a ridiculous fee from Huntington we found Mindy through WyzAnt. It just worked out perfect. Mindy was able to work around our schedule. Not only is she patient, my children enjoy working with her and I can already see an improvement in their writing skills. We're so happy!
Jose A. from Hollywood, FL
Mindy came prepared with material to quickly assess my understanding of the subject to be reviewed, correct any deficiencies, and hone my skills. I highly recommend her.
Donna P. from Fort Lauderdale, FL
I contacted Mindy to help my daughter prepare for the SAT's. We had done prep courses through the school and community. They were a waste of time and money! Mindy was wonderful. First thing she did was to assess my daughter's areas of weakness and strength. She focused on what she needed not just giving tips to save time. Caitlyn had a lot of homework to complete between each session but was not overwhelmed. We are still waiting for our results but for the first time she came out able to say where she felt she had problems and where she did great. Wish we had started with Mindy from the very beginning!
Ketty L. from Hollywood, FL
Miss Mindy is very caring, very knowlegeable and is able to break the barriers to get the best out of my son. For the first time, I noticed that my son is very focus on his reading/writing, he looks forward to his tutoring session
Darien S. from Fort Lauderdale, FL
Mindy really helped me with my comprehension. I am now able to answer questions without having to reread the entire story which wasted time. I'm really happy she could teach me the scanning technique.

Today she needed to asses Tyler which I think she did accurately. Hopefully, with her information she can assist Tyler in strengthening his weaknesses.
