Leah is an outstanding Tutor. She worked with my sons on SAT preparation. She helped them with test taking strategy, essay writing and math. I was so pleased with the result, I will be asking Leah to tutor the boys in Math Analysis/Trigonometry and Biology during the fall. I am certain that as Leah extends what is being taught in the classroom, they will be well prepared for College in 2014.

Leah C. has been a great tutor for my son. Her teaching style resonates very well with him and he looks forward for tutoring with her. She has really made a huge difference in his grades in pre-calculus this year. She also worked with him on improving his organizing abilities. I look forward to having her tutor my son next year too. Thanks a lot, Leah!

If you are looking for a mature, patient and experienced tutor then Leah is it! She not only spent countless hours helping my college age son but she also took the time to provide me (his mom) with feedback and recommendations on specific areas he needed to practice.

Leah listens well, and provides individualized, student-centered guidance. She is a teacher! In the first session Leah identified my specific learning needs, and then over a 4 week period provided just what I needed for a breakthrough. In just 4 weeks this approach raised my PSAT math score by 110 points, from 55th percentile to 85th percentile!

My daughter submitted an English paper for Leah to review and edit. The turnaround time was amazing, I was impressed with how quickly she returned the edited draft to us. Her edits were extremely helpful in preparing my daughter for her final draft.

I am so glad that my 14 year old son has Leah as a tutor. Great personality & friendly. Afterward, my son told me she was great and he had a better understanding. My son is excited about his Geometry class and is seeking an A!

Leah moved mountains! My daughter now enjoys calculus and I was very impressed with Leah’s method of teaching calculus. She answered all her questions, and reassured her. I appreciate the fact that she didn’t just give my daughter the answers to the problems she encountered, but she helped her understand the process of working out the solution. She is super patient and my daughter absolutely loves learning with Leah! So, thank you Leah for moving mountains!

My daughter was out sick for a week missing all her instruction. Leah was able to bring her up to date in AB Calculus AP in one session. My daughter now feels confident in taking her make up exam. Leah was a lifesaver.
