"Rachel began working with my daughter when she was struggling with reading and performing 1-2 years below grade level. She was frustrated and discouraged, but with Rachel’s help she made great strides and today is an avid reader and excels in school in all subjects. Rachel is not only a very skilled reading tutor, she is patient and kind, creating a supportive environment for learning. I would highly recommend Rachel as a tutor!”          - Karyn, Amherst

"Rachel cared for and worked with my children for over 4 years both as their nanny and their reading tutor. They loved their time with her and their literacy skills developed from a strong foundation thanks to her. She was very creative and thoughtful in supporting my kids based on their individual needs and personalities. To this day, my kids talk about Rachel and all the warm memories they have of her. I strongly recommend her."
