“Cassandra is hands down the best tutor I've ever had. She was both prepared and adaptable - she could answer any question I had about any topic. For example, we could be doing cardiovascular system systems and a random question I have about gas comes up, and she could teach it without any additional preparation. I would recommend working with Cassandra 100%.”
