Stephanie has been tutoring my 8 year old daughter for about 5 months during this spring/summer (2019) twice a week. Back then our daughter was attending a Waldorf (Steiner) school but we were set on switching to public school after the summer break. We wanted to prepare our daughter for the big transition (the curriculum and the way Waldorf and Public school teach academics are very different from each other!). My daughter absolutely LOVED Stephanie and was always very excited to go there. She improved her math and writing skills and introduced her to many new terms and methods. Im sure Stephanie had a great impact on the very smooth transition into public education. I highly recommend tutoring sessions with Stephanie!

Stephanie has been working with my daughter for almost 18 months. She has helped her with being more confident in reading and sharpening her math skills. My daughter is in the second grade and enjoys her time with Stephanie. She keeps it fun and fresh! I highly recommend.

Stephanie has been tutoring my son since March, 2018. My son behind in grade level expectations and I couldnt figure out why. Stephanie helped to assess that my son had attention deficiencies before his school did. It was a game changer. In the 10 months since working with Stephanie and her customized techniques to reach my son at his abilities, he has reached many of the milestones set to get him on course with his grade. Stephanie is in frequent with my sons teachers and they work together to ensure my son is supported and continues to grow. I highly recommend and commend Stephanies tutoring services!

Stephanie Stratton was absolutely a godsend for our son. He is an 11-year-old on the autism spectrum, and he had fallen behind in school due to issues with his special ed classroom.Stephanie worked with him for 3 hours a day, every day, for the entire summer, and was able to tailor her instruction to his unique learning style, so that he learned quickly and retained the instruction. This was across all subjects; math, reading, social studies and science.More, Ms. Stratton and our son formed a strong relationship, that made him care about working with her, and it was clear that she cared about him as well.She was also an excellent advocate for him when it was time to discuss his fall placement with the school district. Because of her testimonials, and her willingness to be present at meetings with evaluators and district officials, he was able to get a placement that was far more appropriate to his needs than what he had before.I would definitely work with her again; she was exactly what our son needed, and her caring and competence made all the difference.
