We are so happy that we found Barbara to tutor my daughter who is currently entering her Sophmore year of High School. We started with Barbara in 8th grade. My daughter was always a B student, but also had trouble grasping all the lessons in a 45 minute class time. She just needed that extra practice, which in turn gave her the confidence to learn. With Barbara's help, she entered 9th grade with much more confidence. This led to her earning 4.0 each quarter and ending the years with a 4.0 and being asked to move up to Honors math. She recently said, I think I am actually good in Math, I just always need more practice and once I grasp it, it clicks. Barbara has given her such confidence in those skills. Barbara has also been great to give guidance for which class to go in and the path for the rest of High School while thinking about college. Barbara is always quick to help us change a time if something comes up and always willing to help us adjust with our busy schedules. Finding a good tutor was so hard and we didn't want to just keep trying new people. I was so happy once I found Barbara as a tutor and have recommended her to others!

It is my pleasure to write this review for Dana. I am really glad that in my search I met Dana. I really appreciate the multiple positive characteristics that Dana has such as punctuality and positive demeanor. My daughters are always looking forward to having class with Dana and they really like the way she teaches and communicates with them. Dana is very punctual in giving their assignments and making sure that students understand the covered material. She takes into account my concerns and accommodates her teaching based on priorities discussed. Dana regularly gives feedback and keeps me informed about progress that my daughters are making. I will definitely recommend Dana as a tutor.

I am a distance learner, which I am very happy about. It would like to be able to spend more time in Aberystwyth but my work commitments take up my week. I enjoy online learning, and it is an area I would like to work in after graduation. My tutors are always on-hand to support me if I need assistance. I find the databases and systems very easy to use. And I actually love reading 90% of the titles on my reading list. My course is structured so I can complete my degree in five years, so I can relax knowing that if real life gets in the way (as it often does) I can take time away from my studies to focus on it.
