I come to United state this year and this class helped me a lot. The thing that make Ms. Idriss's class special is she does not teach us just because she have to , but because she want to . The energy she gives when she teach will make you eager to learn everyday. I really had a hard time talking to people because I feared I will be wrong , but she gave me the courage to speak and improve my English step by step which helped me meet new friends this year.
We wrote a lot of essay too . This helped me to improve my writing skills and vocubulary skills . Her class is so fun especially when we talk about our cultural backgrounds with our classmates.She always tell us that being different is fine and we don't have to fit in which helped me a lot in this school year.

First I'd like to thank them for the work their tutors did with Lauryn. She was accepted to 8 out of 9 of the schools she applied to, was given scholarship money at 7 out of 8 that she was accepted to, and has decided to attend Villanova. She's been given a full academic scholarship for 4 years. I know none of this would have happened without the SAT scores she achieved I've heard too many heartbreaking stories recently of top students who did not get into the schools of their choice - there is no doubt in my mind it was due to their SAT scores not being what they could have been. THANK YOU!”

If you are looking for an outstanding writer and coach, James is your person. He dedicated countless hours and travel time to help my daughter develop and refine 6 essays for college admissions. As an experienced journalist he knows about content development, detailed editing, and the art of storytelling. We learned so much from James, I would highly recommend his services to anyone!
Guiding Light Tutoring

I am thrilled to share my wonderful experience with Ms. Thomas! From the very beginning, she showed a sincere interest in helping my child excel in reading and providing personalized attention to my child's unique needs.
One area where she stood out was in her ability to help ease the transition from homeschooling to public schooling. As a homeschooling parent, I was worried about my child's ability to keep up with reading in a public school setting. Ms. Thomas not only helped my child improve their reading abilities, but she also introduced reading strategies that helped my child feel more confident and comfortable in a group-based learning environment.
Furthermore, Ms. Thomas provided insightful feedback on my child's progress and was always willing to answer any questions or concerns I had. With her expertise and guidance, my child was able to build their reading skills and become proficient in the necessary areas.
Overall, I highly recommend Ms. Thomas as a reading and math tutor for anyone looking to help their child achieve academic success. She is friendly, patient, and truly committed to helping each child reach their full potential.
