Ann V. says, "Jessica is patient and understanding. She really helps my son to improve and gain confidence in math. His math teacher has noticed he’s been seeing a tutor. He also has adhd and ocd so it is a challenge finding a tutor with the know how to aid him with the challenges this brings. Scheduling is flexible also and this is great because he gets frequent migraines and often has to cancel and reschedule. I am grateful to have found Ms Adams :)" Read more
