About
Hello! Welcome to Go the Distance Tutoring. My name is Mr. D. I have taught for 24 years in the public school system. I have a Teaching Credential, 2 ESL Certificates, and an Orton-Gillingham Certificate. Orton-Gillingham is a multi-sensory reading program. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. Most of my 24 years of teaching were in Kindergarten through Second Grade. Recently, I have been teaching English to students nationally and internationally! Additionally, I have been helping homeschoolers who desire a credentialed teacher. Your first session is always FREE! Purchase a packet of 5 Lessons and get $10 Off.

He was very kind and fun to work with . He added a lot of valuable teaching tools to use going forward to help my child apply and use as she learns to read.

The tools and method of learning that Professor Don uses in his classes is key helping students learn, understand and pronounce the sounds of the vowels and consonants of the English language. The constant supervision of Professor Don was key, at all times giving me the confidence to speak English, without fear to make mistakes. I recommend him! It has been the best investment of my life.

My experience with Go the Distance Tutoring is the best experience I have had with English in my entire life. It helped me to break my mental limits, my fears and above all to encourage me to speak the language free of traditional teaching structures and with a learning system totally different from any other. The teacher Don is very patient and always innovates ways of transmitting knowledge and the classes are very dynamic. I highly recommend this institution for English training.

I am posting this review as a colleague and not as a customer. Mr. D. is a man of fine character and good humor. As an elementary school teacher he has had years of experience with assessing children and implementing appropriate strategies to help them meet their goals. I remember one year in particular when the state testing scores of Mr. D.’s class far exceeded the scores of any other class at his grade level. It is with confidence that I recommend Mr. D. as a tutor to help children excel in their education. Kathleen
