Course Reviews

I just wanted to say thank you for teaching Matthew this past semester. He really liked the class and learned to love math and not be afraid of algebra.

Thank you for your encouraging math class. My daughter has gained confidence and looks forward to attending class.

Thanks for doing all that you do. I’m so grateful for your teaching. Math is a HUGE battle for me and for Zack, but your classes make life a lot easier for us.

Thank you for choosing to teach homeschoolers. Thank you for putting God first and at the beginning of every class. Thank you for helping and encouraging my children in a subject that’s not their favorite. Thank you for being YOU. Tessa and Liam enjoyed every minute of class time and seemed to understand what you were teaching. You are definitely a teacher that makes a difference!
