Bright but struggling with learning disabilities he didn't feel very good about himself or his abilities until Tania started working with him and knew what he required to learn and feel successful. I would recommend her in a heartbeat." Sandi S. "As a tutor to my eleven year old son, I found Tania to be extremely professional and capable. She was able to provide an individualized approach that considered both his challenges and abilities -   designing a fun, interactive learning experience. On a personal note, she is a very considerate and understanding person who strives to get the most out of her student!" Cleo G.
