Testimonials
-
“We could not have been happier with Sonya. Sonya was kind and not intimidating, and was flexible and accomodating based on our schedule and my son's tutoring needs. She communicated with my son before each session to make sure she covered the appropriate material, and worked from the same textbook he used in class so she knew exactly what he was learning. She explained physics concepts clearly, ran through examples and problems to better illustrate the concepts, and answered all of my son's questions. She really built his confidence up. My son always came back from his tutoring sessions with a much better understanding of the subject matter, confident he could apply what he learned in his high school class.”
