TESTIMONIALS
"My child has been struggling with his 5th grade math, and I didn't know what to do because I ran out of patience. Thank God we found Cathy. She has the skills to talk to my kid and she's very bright. Within a month, my kid went from a low D, close to a F, and she brought his grade up to a mid-B. I firmly highly recommend Miss Cathy!!!"
-Von Dimaculangan, CEO of Restore Massage of Tampa
"My son is 7 years old and he's learning English for a year since moving to the United States. The teacher was going to hold him back because he couldn't read! Cathy's been teaching Axel reading, pronunciation, and writing as ESL. He's very shy but is really comfortable with Cathy! I'm so glad I found her! Thank you for helping my son, he can read now after 3.5 months!"
-Mother of Axel Tremont
