Jevon D. says, "Stacy has introduced our son to a fresh and effective method of learning to read by focusing on the foundational rules of the English language. She has simplified the essential components and guidelines, enabling him to grasp sounds more effectively. Her professional demeanor, positive energy during each session, and excellent communication skills, along with her adaptability, truly stand out. As a result, our son has made noticeable progress in his Virginia VALLS scores and has achieved tier 1 reading status. Additionally, she provides support in enhancing his writing skills. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a tutor, as understanding the rules of English and the relationships between letters greatly boosts a child's confidence in identifying similar sounds. Mrs. Stacy is an invaluable resource for any student."See more

Amanda L. says, "I studied ESL with Christina for over 2 months now. She’s very knowledgeable in language. I had wonderful experiences learning English along with American culture. Christina is also very encouraging, which helps me build more confidence interacting and communicating more with native speakers. I find it’s not only a language class, but also a class for personal growth. I would love to continue the class with Christina for long term, and I would recommend her to anyone who’s seeking for a language teacher."See more

Komal K. says, "I highly recommend the orientation session with Prof. Alex. I have understood what is accent reduction and how to work to achieve the high level like many of his students! The results are extremely impressive and they do sound like native speakers to me. If I get the same level with Alex I will be so happy! I am very excited to get started with my customized American Accent Program. Alex teaches all sounds of American English in sound-by-sound approach which makes a lot of sense because in order to get a high level you need to get through the evaluation of each American sound. Alex does it in each session and we tried a small sample classes where he put me to read phonetic exercises and he was very carefully highlighting all my mistakes! What makes it even more interested he used 2D Sound Motion Technology to show me how to do ir ight and what mistakes to avoid . I got it form the first time and started to pronounce a great sound! I felt the difference immediately! Excellent tools, excellent customization based on my needs and my speaking goals. Alex has an incredible personality and i built trust right away!!! I am super excited about my results and hoping to get better! I am ready to work hard and be a better version of myself! Thanks, Alex a lot! You are doing a great job to help us speak MUCH better!!!"See more

Jacob G. says, "Carol has been teaching our children for 15 months. They adore her and are excited for each class. She continues to help them organize and articulate their writing and speaking. She encourages reading books to be fun while discussing with us how they can realate to the characters. Last few months, she introduced inferences to help our son to stay on point using short passages. Carol has an unique ability to create a lively and productive lesson. Her passion for language arts helps our children to strengthen their unique writing style and vocabulary not done at their school. She has really helped both of them to become better story tellers through their writing. We are grateful to have found her!"See more

Maria V. says, "Tim is the best teacher. He is patient, organized, and clear. He has helped me with my pronunciation, grammar, and confidence. It’s incredibly important to have a teacher you feel comfortable with, someone you can make mistakes with, ask anything, and feel safe knowing you won’t be judged and will receive support. My English is completely different since I started with him. Highly recommended."See more
