"Christina has made a huge difference in Zoe's life. With her multi sensory approach she has been able to tap into the kinesthetic senses making learning to read more fun. She is always encouraging, patient and understanding of what Zoe needs. Thanks to her, we have seen a growth of 5 reading levels in one year!" -Kathryn V. (Parent)

Christina is the very best. She single-handedly brought my daughter up to speed to cover the deficits in learning from the Covid delays. My daughter looked forward to tutoring because Christina made it fun. Without it, she would not be the reader she is today. Highly recommend

Mrs. Cucci came to work with our son, a reluctant learner who we'd given up on trying to teach at home. He is always excited for her lessons and actually retains what he learns. Mrs. Cucci has an approach that taps into various learning styles that keep him interested, happy, yet challenged. She is always prepared, punctual, and professional.
