| TESTIMONIALS Parents: “You are an extraordinary human being. I had no idea you provided so much careful consideration and focus for [my daughter]. I love the goal sheet and the honesty required to attain the goals. What a great idea. I'd be a more successful person today if you had been my tutor!” --mother of 9th grade girl “You must have ‘the magic touch’ because [my son’s] unsolicited comment upon your departure was ‘she's excellent!!’” --mother of 5th grade boy "We have seen a significant improvement in his study habits since you began helping him. He is more organized and focused …. He even keeps his room cleaner. His GPA turned around by the end of last year and its been good enough to get him accepted to two of his reach schools! Thanks again!" --father of 12th grade boy "I appreciate all of your knowledge and time. You have shared much of yourself with [my daughter]. You never seemed rushed or stressed when you arrive. You have the uncanny ability to make her feel that she is the only student that you work with…that is an amazing gift! Your spirit is positive and caring…two essential components to success!" --mother of 7th grade girl “You are an amazing educator, focusing on both the IQ and EQ.” --mother of 8th grade girl “I wanted to drop you a note expressing my thanks and gratitude for all your efforts with [my son]. You have done an excellent job teaching him the skills to become more productive and efficient in his study skills. When I asked yesterday if he was sad to end his tutoring with you, he immediately answered yes. While he feels you have taught him the skills he needs, he said he was going to miss working with you. This says it all.” --mother of 10th grade boy “I think you are an outstanding tutor and human being. Thanks for helping us.” --mother of 9th grade girl “It is helping our family SO much by having you help out. You are helping our family dynamics and my stress level TREMENDOUSLY!” --mother of 5th grade girl “Your work with [my son] has been helping him in so many ways. This is straight from his mouth. I also see it in his school work. He proudly came home yesterday and showed me a full page of notes he took on his history book…he did an awesome job…That, a few months back, would never have happened. Best of all, he feels competent and proud. I can really see how, as he develops some mastery in these areas, the positive feedback he gets will spur him on to more of the same kind of work. He absolutely loves his time with you... Thanks from all of us!” --mother of 5th grade boy “The girls remember you with fondness and your excellent teaching with appreciation.” --mother of 4th and 6th grade girls "You're a miracle worker!" --mother of 11th grade boy “You are amazing and know how to motivate! Many thanks.” --mother of 8th grade girl “Thanks for your support. I'm really glad you made time for us.” --mother of 7th grade girl

You taught me how to take notes and writing strategies. You also helped me with my homework. I have improved my organization skills because of you. You really helped me. I'll miss you!” --6th grade boy "Thank you!
