Mrs. Barbara has been absolutely wonderful! Since working with her, I have noticed a tremendous improvement in his confidence and reading skills. He is now able to break down words, sound them out, and identify words with multiple syllables. I am beyond pleased with his progress in such a short time and truly appreciate her patience, dedication, and encouragement. I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a caring and effective tutor!

Reviews
She is great in finding area that needs improvement and working with kids on them. Easy with kids, but redirects them to focus when needed.
My son loves his afternoon tutoring. She makes learning fun for him and he is always ready to sign on and get started. His reading has improved so much that his grades have even improved at school. Ms. Barbara is a joy and a big help to my sons education.
In just a short time, my 8-year-old has developed a newfound passion for reading. Miss Barbara's approach is engaging and effective, making learning enjoyable. We're excited to see our son's progress continue with her fantastic tutoring. Highly recommended!
Very friendly, I really enjoy listening to her teach my stepson In a way I’m learning too how to help and practice with him afterwards
We absolutely fell in love with Ms. Barb from the start. My daughter can be quite a handful and standoffish to strangers, yet took to her like a family friend she knew for years. It was very difficult to get her to even try reading anything and from day one Ms. Barb had found a crack in the door. We would have kept going for years but unrelated circumstances had us end the tutoring. I recommend her to everyone though.
I loved her systemic approach to tutoring my kids. I just hate the fact that it we both had to drive far to meet in the middle. Still looking for a conveniently located tutor that is near her level of expertise.
My daughter was really lacking behind in reading and writing and Mrs. Barbara helped her and provided guidance in the right direction to achieve success. She is really an awesome teacher. I would highly recommend Mrs. Barbara.
My son made tremendous progress while working with Barbara. His reading comprehension test score improved dramatically. Barbara is very professional, always on time, responds to emails quickly, and is very patient with her students.
Hired, but she will be cutting back her work load. So looking for a new tutor. Thank you for your responds.
