Title: Exceptional Tutor Who Goes the Extra Mile Rating: ★★★★★ I recently had the pleasure of working with a highly skilled and dedicated tutor, Ms. Michelle Merryman and Mr. Alexander and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for their immense help and expertise. From the moment we began our sessions, it was evident that these two tutors possess an exceptional ability to impart knowledge and facilitate learning. First and foremost, their extensive subject knowledge was outstanding. They exhibited a deep understanding of the subject matter, which enabled them to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. This allowed my son (and myself) to grasp difficult concepts more easily and build a solid foundation of understanding. Furthermore, their teaching style was incredibly engaging and interactive. Rather than relying solely on traditional lecture-style teaching methods, they incorporated various techniques such as visual aids, real-life examples, and practical exercises to make the learning experience more enjoyable and memorable. Not only did this keep my son motivated and attentive during our sessions, but it also allowed him to retain information more effectively. One aspect that truly set these tutors apart was their dedication and commitment to my son's success. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure that he fully comprehends the material and achieve his desired goals. They provide him with additional resources, practice exercises, and even offered to review his work outside of our scheduled sessions. Such personalized attention and support made a significant difference in his progress. One notable quality of these tutors was their admirable patience and adaptability. They never made him feel rushed or overwhelmed, always taking the time to answer his questions (and mines) and address any areas of confusion. They customized their teaching approach to align with my son's individual learning style and adjusted the pace of our sessions accordingly. This enabled him to learn at his own speed, fostering a productive and stress-free learning environment. Lastly, these tutors' professionalism and reliability were outstanding. They consistently arrived prepared and organized for each session, ensuring that our time together was focused and productive. They were prompt, respectful, and remained flexible when scheduling conflicts arose. Their commitment to delivering a quality learning experience was truly commendable. In conclusion, my experience with Ms. Michelle and Mr. Alexander was nothing short of exceptional. Their subject knowledge, engaging teaching style, dedication to my son's success, patience, and professionalism made a remarkable impact on my son's learning journey. If you are seeking a tutor who is not only passionate about their subject but also genuinely invested in your progress, I highly recommend working with them. They have certainly exceeded my expectations and have been instrumental in helping me (my son) achieve ongoing success. MY FAMILY LOVES YOU BOTH! ~Jennifer D.

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

Michaela was supportive, kind, and helpful during my college application process. She worked with me to develop my own ideas, providing specific guidance with editing my writing, and more broad assistance with structuring and developing my thoughts. She helped me strengthen my own writing while ensuring that my voice remained at the forefront. She cares deeply about her students and is incredibly knowledgeable about the college application and essay writing process. I would definitely recommend her and her services!
