Sophia W. says, "My daughter was in 3rd grade reading at a 1st grade level. I reached out to Eric and immediately felt at ease. All of my concerns were met with thoughtfulness and warmth on our initial phone call and after our first session, I knew it was a perfect match. Over the course of the school year, my daughter went from throwing tantrums every day before school, to keeping up with her classmates and thriving as a student. If you want someone who is going to pinpoint exactly what your child's needs and change their life, Eric at Butterfly Lit is your person." Read more

Yasheen Z. says, "At age 5, with no prior experience with music, my son started weekly piano lesson with Esther. He surprised us with quick progress in piano playing and also development of music sensitivity and appreciation. We attributed this development to Esther’s creative and responsible teaching style, her unique way with kids and her warm personality that kids love. I strongly recommend Esther to anyone who needs a mentor, a teacher and a friend." Read more

I offer great tutoring at a reasonable price. I have experience with the SAT, SSAT, ISEE, LSAT, and other tests, and not only understand how to take the tests, but how to teach the material to students in a way they can understand. I can answer questions that relate to test prep and academic subjects that only a person with "real world" experience can give - such as "Why do I need to know this stuff, anyway?"

We just moved to the US from Korea and the change has been very tough for my kids. They are not familiar with the US school system and falling behind. I saw their confidence draining. But all of that changed when SoFlo came into the picture. To start, they gave a free assessment so they could figure out where my children were struggling. From there we had weekly tutoring sessions that my kids actually enjoy. I am seeing their confidence return and life in the US get better for them
