"We engaged Alessandra for our son’s standardized test prep but quickly realized she could help him with so much more. Because of her holistic approach to tutoring, not only did our son gain confidence in his ability to write an essay, ace a calculus test, and master an ACT, she also challenged him to elevate his goals and believe in himself. In addition, she taught him valuable organization skills and even helped reduce test anxiety. Alessandra has a keen ability to identify areas of development and present actionable plans to meet those needs. She presents measurable data that charts progress, benefitting students and parents alike. Her personable and collaborative style made her a natural choice for our son."
