We are working with Leah for the second time. Her wonderful job the first time helped land my son in the top 10% of his civil service exam. Marvelous job!
Beth C. from Richmond, TX
Leah is a quick thinker and is able to dive into whatever subject is needed. She explains things so it is easy to understand.
Blanca B. from Houston, TX
I highly recommend this tutor if you need help with biology. She is a great tutor and knows the material very well. She is always on time and is very helpful.
William L. from Sugar Land, TX
Leah just started working with my 12 year old and 14 year old and I'm very impressed with her organization of materials to help kids understand new subjects. Extra worksheets in the areas covered were provided after lessons to help reinforce the material. Fantastic!
Lori G. from Sugar Land, TX
Leah was organized and knowledgeable. She helped my daughter understand the concepts better and helped prepare her for her test. She also sent her additional materials to help her study, which was very thoughtful. We will be calling Leah again in the future.
Kelly M. from Sugar Land, TX
I can't say enough good things about Leah. I have struggled with math my entire life. I got to the point where I convinced myself I would never pass math, but being in college I had to take math and pass it. I took two math classes this summer and passed them both, not even at the bare minimum. The first, college algebra was passed with a 97 and the second, finite math was passed with an 82. I would never have been able to do it without Leah's help; she's amazing. I worked with her every week this summer, and she explained everything thoroughly and put things into terms that I could understand. 3 months ago I would have never thought I would get through these math classes, but Leah is a godsend. I recommend her 1000%!
Daniela P. from Fulshear, TX
I contacted Leah for help in college biology, and I was blown away by how knowledgeable she is. Moreover, she has a gift for being able to explain and break things down. I found her more helpful than professors and teachers I have had in the past. If I ever need tutoring again, I will contact her. She is patient and has many methods for explaining different concepts. She even took the time to make me notes to review and recommended readings. I am very delighted with my experience.
Mashal A. from Houston, TX
One year ago, I had her to help me in general chemistry. She makes everything simple. As you know, some questions on the exam looks away harder than they really are, so she was restating the questions in a simple way. Plus, she showed me the area I need to master and the area I need to go through. I highly recommend her!
Debra A. from Stafford, TX
Great with my kids and the results are awesome! Kids love her. I have reference her to my other friends and they are using her on a regular basis. And her daughter loves her also. What ever subject you need she is ready and prepared when she arrives.
Amanda C. from Richmond, TX
She is very helpful and well prepared. She is able to answer questions to the assignment when needed. I would definitely recommend Leah to anybody.
Yiwei F. from Sugar Land, TX

Leah helped me review and study for my HESI entrance exam, and like all her other reviews, she is great. The way she explains things, teaches things, just makes everything well.. MAKE SENSE. She's breaks things down in a way that you wouldn't forget. Thanks again Leah, you were a great help!!!!!!

Leah taught me English and Biology. She helped me improve my vocabulary, reading and writing skills. She is very friendly and patient.
Jhamare J. from Lafayette, IN
She helped me understand what I was learning. She didn't just tell me how to solve the problem(s) she broke down the information so it would be less confusing. She also showed me how to do the problems I had trouble on. She was patient and answered all of my questions. A little while after the session she sent me the work from our session for future reference. That was very thoughtful. Best $30 I have spent on tutoring.

Lauren K. from Walnut Creek, CA
Leah has been awesome. I have several learning disabilities and Leah has been able to break things down and explain things so I can understand them. She is great at explaining them in more than one way if needed. She is patient and very knowledgeable with the TEAS V test. I am very happy I cam across her. I was very hesitant to use a online tutor as I am a visual and hands on learner but this has not been a problem, she draws things out for me and explains thing for me just fine, it is like she is right next to you. She has material for you, homework and is very prepared. I am extremely satisfied:)
Erika L. from Buffalo, NY
Very well spoken and Leah knows how to explain each detail in a way that anyone can understand. I struggle with bio and today I feel great with what I was taught.
Mary Rose R. from Corpus Christi, TX
She has increased the knowledge of the subject in a day that I could not learn in a semester.
Sean E. from Missoula, MT
Leah is doing an excellent job with my son. We were concerned about Internet tutoring. This has been a great experience. Leah has taken the time to not only help do daily assignments but also walk him through the Algebra steps he was missing. She has been willing to work with our schedule. We have spent alot of time at Sylvan Learning Center and this has been a much better experience. My son is much happier and looking forward to time learning with Leah.
Antonio S. from Stockbridge, GA
The first session went very well. Clearly she knows her stuff! I can't wait to continue absorbing the knowledge that she possesses. She broke things down to and related them in a way that made it easy for me to grasp what she was attempting to communicate. I'm very confident that I'll be able to eventually conquer the TEAS V exam as long as I follow her lead. I'm really looking to our future tutoring sessions.
Jean M. from Chico, CA
Leah is a very organized tutor and ready with material to cover lesson every time. She has been a great help with preparing for the teas exam. She is very knowledgeable in English, math and science. She worked well with my Son. My son passed the teas test and I feel Leah had a lot to do with him passing the test. He had to pass the teas test to start Nursing School.
Shykera P. from Atlanta, GA
Leah has been a great tutor for myself. I'm currently using her for tutoring on the HESI A2 Nursing Entrance Exam. She make sure that the information is understood before moving on to another subject. When I have trouble understanding any information, she goes over the materials piece by piece to make sure that the knowledge is gained. Another thing that I like about her teaching methods is that she doesn't stay on one subject too long. Once she knows that you understand the information, she moves on to the more complex materials to go over.
Stacey C. from Seabrook, TX
I've been working with Leah for the past 3 weeks and already feel so much better! Leah has really helped me retain and comprehend the biology material, along with other sections. Awesome tutor! Thank you!

Kendall G. from Longview, TX
She is great and breaks everything down in the simplest way. I was able to follow along and understand and when I didn't I would ask questions and she then would give me examples that made it all make sense. I highly recommend her.
Ijeoma M. from Smyrna, DE
I have improved on my knowledge of balancing chemical reactions, solving problems relating to molar mass, and when to used Avogadro's number to solve a problem.
Daniel S. from Lake Elsinore, CA
Day 2 with Leah - Great information and she is very Patient. I am hopping for more TEAS Review :)
