TESTIMONIALS

Char has tutored my daughter for over a year in Math and English. I can definitely say that the progress and confidence my daughter has gained working one on one with her was astounding.

Char was extremely patient and understanding, helping my daughter focus on her tasks. We moved to Miami and we haven’t found a tutor comparable to Char. She has helped my daughter pass the 3rd and 4th grade- when we started, my daughter was very close to being retained in the 3rd grade. Char worked diligently every week with her, easing her anxiety and restoring her confidence. I’m glad I did my research and chose Char. Highly recommend. Sue A.

When you meet Char Geletka you can stop.  Stop looking for another tutor. Char met our expectations and more.  Not only is she sharp, dependable, knowledgeable but she is strategic in teaching your child how to develop the love of learning.  Char takes a personal interest in the progress of your student. Cherie A.

I highly recommend Char’s review services for your college bound children. Frank S.

I believe when I inspire my students to learn they become life long learners!
