My college advisor is a very kind person. Even when I mess up, she never makes me feel dumb, but helps me and teaches me how to fix it.

I’m so thankful we found the Dewey Smart Team. My daughter was really struggling with physics and needed help fast. They paired her with Kathryn, and she’s been amazing. The pricing was affordable compared to others we checked out. Best of all, my daughter went from feeling stressed and worried to confident and so much happier. Highly recommend!

Details: High school • Physics • I travel to the science tutor • The science tutor travels to me • Phone or internet (no in-person meeting)

Thank you so much, Jenifer! 😊 We’re thrilled to hear that your daughter S had such a positive experience with Kathryn. She’s truly one of our best! Helping students go from stressed to confident is exactly why we do what we do 💪. We’re so glad we could support your family and appreciate your kind words and recommendation! 💙
