We have extended sessions to include reading comprehension and appreciate that Ms. Colleen is taking the time to figure out her weaknesses and work on that.

Our daughter has been having lessons with Colleen on a weekly basis. Now she is getting only straight A's for her math (8th grade student)! We are very thankful to Colleen for all her great assistance and very clear explanation of all topics. We'll keep taking her lessons for further improvements of our daughter's skills in math, which will definitely assist her in the future.
