Barbara is phenomenal! Not only was Barbara creative and patient, and but she made it fun. Our reluctant reader couldn't wait to get to Barbara's tutoring session each week. After working with Barbara intensively over the summer, our child is now not only enjoys reading, but is reading above grade level. The skills and tools that our child learned have made all the difference in her confidence and abilities. So much so, that she no longer needs additional tutoring. We've had an amazing experience, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Barbara!

She really helped my high schooler break down the fundamentals of writing, allowing him to learn through his ADHD and excel in class with excellent marks!!!! We are very grateful and plan to go back to her when the next English class is scheduled.
