Reviews for Rockford English tutors

I enjoyed my time working with Ms. B! Whenever I struggled with trying to flesh out a writing topic, she would give amazing ideas to write about. If I had any grammatical errors, Ms. B would give me clear directions about my errors and corrected. She would also work with me to resolve any issue my papers had, even if we both could not understand. Ms. B always made time to see me even though she was very busy. She is a hardworking and dedicated woman and very passionate when working with her students. I would recommend Ms. B's services to anyone!! She was an amazing tutor!!!

We have done virtual,face to face and group. She has been engaged and loved all of them. She looks forward to each class. I also love that one of her tutors sends me a report of what they did and where she should focus her time next session. Overall I am pleased.

Japjeev is the first tutor that my son went to, she was a catalyst in motivating him in becoming independent at "try first and then ask for help". She connected well with him and helped him with his after school homework assignments as well as critiquing his writings. I highly recommend her to 7th grade Math students who need help in their daily school assignments.
