Our Impact So Far

What Parents of Tutees are Saying

 

“I am a single working mother. My daughter was struggling with reading. I approached Student Connection and they immediately matched her with a tutor. She loves her tutor. Her tutor understands her as a person and as a learning style. My daughter can now read much better and actually enjoys her reading. Every evening she reads her bedtime story to me.

“My son is high functioning on the autism spectrum and on Monday he came to my room about 3 times saying how much easier his work was to understand and that the tutor explained it to him so that he could get the work and when the teachers explain it he doesn't get it or gets confused. He has been in such a good mood since then”

“My daughter always got stuck on her homework. I would come home late and it would be too late to help her. She barely every completed her homework. But now that she has a tutor she completes it every time he is there. She gets very excited to do it with him and it helps me look after my other two kids.”
