Homeschooling my three daughters for the last eighteen years, my life revolves around loving them and teaching them. Reading, writing, literature analysis and all things English, delight our family and provide joy and discussion around our dinner table most evenings.

ADD/ADHD
My oldest two ADHD daughters graduated cheerfully this past year from our homeschool and scored in the top 2% of the reading comprehension portion of the SAT and the top 1% of the writing portion of the SAT. The Wanda Sanseri method I use successfully transforms any student using phonograms, writing patterns to lay a foundation, short for the student in all academic subjects. My own 3 children are diagnosed with this debilitating disorder and have grown into thriving, eager students. With brief lessons, kinesthetic modality, and unique approaches, I teach to the ADHD student's strengths: intense focus for brief periods. Some of my methods include writing lessons while sitting on an exercise ball, reading while prone on a carpeted or comfortable surface, and dimming lights in a study area. Most students additionally respond well to concepts taught using auditory, visual, AND kinesthetic modalities.

She is wonderful for my son who has dyslexia. He has been in tutoring since preschool and is now in the eighth grade. We started in August of this year with Cristal and are seeing amazing progress in his writing, reading, and grammar skills. She has truly been an answer to our prayers!

Cristal has a ton of knowledge and material for tutoring. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance in reading. She is helping my son improve his reading skills along with his desire to read. I feel truly blessed that we found her to help our son. She is an amazing, kind, and godly woman that goes beyond your expectations.

Cristal helped me with an essay and resume correction. I needed these documents for my MBA application. Cristal is the best! I highly recommend Cristal if you need help with your college work.

Cristal is an amazing tutor and was very helpful with assisting my daughter with her college essay's and prepping for the SAT. We are extremely pleased with the outcome we have received from my daughters college applications and the improvement in her SAT scores. I highly recommend Cristal to you and believe it was the best decision to utilize her services for my Senior in High School. I was impressed with her professionalism and she listens to your requests and concerns and is very focused on accomplishing the tasks at hand. We spoke often regarding my daughters goals and made adjustments to her tutoring program as we moved through the process of College applications and essays. Best decision ever! I would do it all over again, it is money well spent!

Mrs. Cristal is an outstanding tutor! She is thorough and very knowledgeable in the subject of English grammar and composition as well as spelling and literature. She was very patient with my daughter and build her confidence each time they met for a lesson.

Our 17 year old was struggling in English. Since she has been working with Cristal her grades have improved and most importantly she loves going to her tutor sessions. This is only after 1 month. Cristal is such a joy to work with. Her approach is perfect with students who lack confidence, and need positive instruction. We can't say enough great things about her.
