"We had the privilege of using Allison as a tutor for our daughter.   We knew her initially as our daughter's kindergarten teacher at Burke's. 

Not only was Allison our daughter's favorite, she was ours too. Allison's greatest skill was understanding our daughter's personality and temperament and applying the right approach to best suit her. During one period of time working with Allison, our daughter was dealing with tremendous anxiety as a result of her severe food allergies. The anxiety was affecting both her learning and her social life. Allison, with her huge smile and huge heart, knew exactly how to put our daughter at ease. They always had fun during the tutoring session and my daughter felt proud of her work when she finished. On top of reading and math, Allison successfully incorporated some basic occupational therapy exercises into each session to improve handwriting skills. 

Allison radiates warmth and a passion for children and learning. She is really a gift and we are forever grateful to her. We highly recommend her."

"Several years ago we had the pleasure of having Allison as our daughter's Kindergarten teacher. Allison has a lovely, natural enthusiasm and connection with young children. She is an excellent teacher and has worked with both of our children in enhancing their reading skills. They always look forward to Allison's visits because of her positive energy and confidence-building skills. We would highly recommend her for both enrichment and support."

"I cannot say enough about Allison. We hired her to work with our child who had the ISEE test coming up and wanted to make sure he was up to speed. She planned great lessons for him and he did great on his test. We continue to use her and will highly recommend her to everyone. "
