Ms. Jamila is an exceptional tutor! In the time my 5-year-old has been working with her, I’ve witnessed remarkable growth. She has a unique ability to connect with children and make learning enjoyable. My child’s confidence, phonics skills, and enthusiasm for reading have significantly increased, thanks to her engaging approach. Ms. Jamila transforms letter sounds, rhyming, and early reading into fun and accessible activities. Her patience and nurturing nature have truly made a difference in our lives, and we are incredibly grateful for her dedication!

Suzy is so knowledged and had some great tools/tricks for our smart boy with dyslexia. She treated him with respect and made sure to get to know his interests to make the extra tutoring time less of a chore. He actually enjoyed his time with her. Suzy encouraged him and gave him the space he needed to think before giving him a hint. That is a frustration for him.... when others jump in with a hint or the answer before his brain can find the route he needs. Suzy asked him questions about how he thinks and respected his answers. She encouraged him to build on what he knows and that built resilience. She also was amazing in helping us (his parents) with resources we did not even know existed! I was able to go to the school district and request my son have access to these resources to support him in middle school. My son, who was behind 2.5 grade levels has made honor roll! We credit Suzy for being a part of building his confidence as a capable learner. We highly recommend Suzy! My son says, “Oh ya! If you need a tutor, pick Ms. Suzy!”
