Miss Emily has been a wonderful teacher for our daughter. Our daughter was struggling tremendously throughout the school year, my wife found Emily via Care.com I want to share the exceptional wok Miss Emily has done to help our daughter with her studies and her emotional well being.
Our daughter has been struggling for many years. Sadly the school has not been of much help in regards to accommodations and proper testing etc. Miss Emily has helped her to receive proper testing and was the first to discover that our daughter has a learning disability! Miss Emily has worked extensively to assist in making sure our daughter now has proper testing accommodations and day to day educational accommodations. Our daughter's grades this semester have soared! I am SO amazed at what a difference and a true professional can make in a child's life! I have had my daughter work with others but they are not at all at the level of Miss Emily's level of professionalism and genuine care.

Emily has been a great help to my son and their friend in preparing for their upcoming SAT exam. They do a group lesson at our local library and it has helped my son a great deal! His anxiety about studying has diminished and he looks forward to studying with his friend. (Emily actually made the suggestion to help my son and his friend to help keep one another motivated.)
PLUS: Emily also has been a great resource as well for music lessons for my daughter! Very professional and experienced in teaching, preparing for state exams and even a professional music teacher. A definite win win!
