Stacy B. says, "During the 2022-2023 school year, John tutored our two children (junior and freshman in high school). John quickly got to know our children during their separate sessions and built a strong rapport with both of them. Our children are very different types of learners, and John found ways to successfully engage and support each of them. Our daughter said, "He is so flexible and willing to adjust what we are working on to what we actually need help with. We set the agenda together. He also really values our ideas and takes the time to ask us what we think." Our son explained, "He helps walk me through things instead of just telling me how to do something. Sometimes that's harder in the moment because I have to think more, but then when I go to do something on my own on a test or for an assignment, it's much easier. I have really learned how to do the things he has shown me and I am much more confident that I can do them on my own." As a parent, John has been incredibly professional. He communicates about schedule, billing, student progress, and shows a genuine interest in our kid's well-being and success. We are so glad that we found John and STRONGLY recommend him to other families!" Read more

Brian Z. says, "James is very invested in our student, he digs deep in finding the problems, and won’t move on until our student understands everything entirely. My only regret is that we didn’t consult with him sooner because it’s very obvious as well that the confidence in our student has suffered because of how long he went on without help in school. Although progress can be slow at times, it’s very obvious that James’s efforts are making an impact on our student and are evident in his improving grades. Anybody would be happy with the work that James does!" Read more

Rijais S. says, "I'm a New Parent who has hired Mrs. Plummer tutor my daughter for Reading and I will tell you she is a Gem she very comfortable to speak with and she understands completely. I'm she reached out to my profile about my daughter because my child is a intervert and she doesn't open up to many people but it was a match for Rijais she absolutely can't wait to get back on her next session with Mrs. Plummer. So if your looking for a professionalism tutor who cares about the student and their education try Mrs. Erica Plummer. I feel my daughter will be stronger in what she's weak in and soar . Thank you so much can't wait to fo many more sessions with you!!! 💜" Read more

James has been working with our son (now 8) for almost two years. He has helped our son improve his reading and writing skills enormously, while helping to boost his confidence in himself and his abilities. My son has also made progress in math with James' help. Even though a tutor session is work - my son looks forward to his sessions with James and has a lot of fun learning! I give James a 5 star rating because he is an outstanding tutor.
