dyslexia
Dyslexia in letters and numbers can pose a challenge to students but using kinesthetics can help.

Diane - A great tutor and patient. I was very impressed with our initial meeting to discuss services. She brought along an assessment for my son to get a feel for his skills; this showed an eager and serious interest. During our first tutoring session, she worked with son on a few writing assignments, followed by some reading exercises. Her creativity was conveyed in the work they accomplished today. I am certainly excited about a continued tutoring relationship. Her serious, eager, and patient demeanor was just what I needed for my son. I would definitely recommend her services.

Diane was a great tutor. I loved the way she explained things to me and was very patient and understanding! I wish I could keep her but we lived far from each other so I couldn't keep her cause we are 40 mins away.

This was my son's first session with Diane and he seems to have learned something and is happy with her help. She has a very calm demeanor and I like her approach to teaching. I'll keep you updated!
