Shunta S.
My son has now been attending Academia Tutoring for almost 2 months and enjoys going. He receives tutoring 2x's/week for math and reading and has already made improvements and I look forward to his continual progress. Mrs. Salone has also identified other areas for us to tackle. I appreciate her dedication to students and families by making tutoring affordable and by being flexible with scheduling. She really takes on a holistic approach by ensuring my son is engaged and ready to learn. I have truly been impressed with her and I definitely recommend her center.

She is extremely patient with our 3rd grader. She has taught him techniques that he did know and/or refreshed his memory. She genuinely cares for the student. Study plans well organized and emailed days in advance of the weekly sessions.

Ms.Chistine was extremely helpful with tutoring my son. We specifically needed support with his upcoming 5th grade STAAR & entering 6th grade ISEE exams, which she provided. She was patient, straightforward, engaging, and kind. My son was able to quickly warm up to her. I really appreciated the strategies she taught him to use during his exams and we saw tremendous growth. (He mastered both exams!) I would most definitely recommend Ms.Christine for your child's tutoring needs.

Customized tutoring
With hardly 2 weeks left for ACT, I wanted to get someone to help my daughter with Reading and English parts of the ACT test. Gabriela quickly put together a customized program, after meeting the first time that included homework outside of tutoring hours. After the second meeting (4 hrs total tutoring time), my daughter's practice tests saw a significant improvement (between 8 to 10 points). She was able to apply all strategies that Gabriela taught her. I highly recommend Gabriela for any of language help she provides but would personally recommend her for Reading and English sections of standardized testing. I feel she is highly skilled in customizing a tailored program for the student rather than a one size fits all approach.

To whom It May Concern:
I had the pleasure and honor of being taught by professional instructors to include Ms. Mary Potter. She first taught me at the University of Nebraska at Omaha [UNO] Afghan Scholarship Program Intensive Language [ASPIL], part of the process of preparing Afghan students whose studies were interrupted by the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979, for completing their studies in higher educational institutions across the United States.
Ms. Potter impacted me enormously inside the class as well as outside in her office whenever I had questions on SAT or on American Culture. She never flinched and always showed the willingness and keenness to assist others and me with her beautiful smiley face and positive manner. In a very short period of time, we established a good rapport and our teacher – student relationship improved to a level of friendship, which continues to this day.
After I was granted a scholarship to the United States and I arrived to the country, I was always in contact with Ms. Potter to seek assistance on cultural, personal, and other professional issues. She was kind enough to even invite me to her wedding ceremony in Omaha, Nebraska, in early 1990s.
Ms. Potter served as a reference for me on many occasions whenever I needed her assistance with job application or security clearance process required by the US Government.
I highly recommend Ms. Mary Potter for any tutoring or related jobs as she is extremely overqualified and an experienced individual in teaching and tutoring English language.
