What they're saying about us

  • “Micaela doesn't only engage in the standard methods of tutoring. She finds creative ways to work with my son's individual learning style using visual aids, charts, white boards, or anything else that will make learning both successful and fun!”

    — Parent
  • “Our daughter had a rough transition and was struggling at her new school. Micaela helped her with her study skills and reading strategies. She easily connected with our daughter. Within a few weeks, our daughter was earning all A's and B's. She looked forward to working with Micaela each week as she made learning fun.”

    — Parent
  • “Micaela gave my first-grader a love of reading, and came up with a number of fun and engaging ways to help him organize his thinking and writing. As a result, he is much more prepared for second grade, and beyond.”
