- Parent of Weston High School Class of ’20 student
"2019I just thought I’d send a quick note letting you know that the entire ride home last night, D and H were talking about how much they learned! They shared how you made class so much fun that it captured their attention the entire class time. So, thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise in a relatable and fun way with these kids.

- Parent of Weston High School Class of ’19 Student"2018
We are profoundly grateful for all you have done for our daughter. Of course, you have helped her make marked improvement in her test scores, but you’ve also, more importantly, changed her attitude, dispelling her apprehensions and giving her self-confidence. What a tremendous gift.
