Sonia is probably the best tutor that has ever worked with our kids. She explains math and science topics in a very clear and calm manner. She is very organized and gives a thorough summary of each day's activities before leaving. She will take extra time to go over material for upcoming tests. We are very impressed.

My son is very happy with Sonia. She is very kind and very patient. My son had just one class and he is very, very happy.

Sonia was amazing with my son! He needed help with biology and end of the year exams. She was very knowledgeable and patient with my son. They went through the study guides together and she would tell him what she expected him to work on until they met again. She was also very easy to get a hold of and replied to my e-mails in the same day. I hope Sonia will come back and help my son in the fall!

I'm so glad I hired Sonia to help me with SAT prep process. She knew exactly how to drill the different techniques and tricks needed to figure out the different type of questions. She always made it on time to the lessons and seems like she wanted to help me. Since she focused more on the most important concepts, I knew what to expect on the SAT and I was prepared for it. Also, it is easy to schedule lessons with Sonia because she is flexible and responds to emails as soon as possible.

We hired Sonia to help my daughter with anatomy, although I have no doubt Sonia would be an excellent resource in any science subject. My daughter's grades immediately improved prompting her teacher to ask, "What's your secret weapon?" It was Sonia. Sonia was on time for every session, came ready to teach, and had a great upbeat attitude my daughter responded to in a big way. he is the best tutor we've ever hired - and we've had a few. The best.

Sonia did a great job helping my daughter prepare for the SAT. She was always quick to respond to my emails and very flexible in working out a schedule. She arrived on time, prepared and organized, and got my daughter working hard. I loved how she worked closely with my daughter on all sections to discover her strengths and weaknesses. She was also great at breaking down the work into manageable pieces and assigning homework between sessions. Sonia is also very kind, patient, and encouraging. She was just what we needed to take some of the stress away and make preparation as pleasant as possible. I think she would work well with all personalities and needs.
