Pro Tutoring Student Success

“E. had an 83% in pre-algebra before we started tutoring with Sioux. That doesn’t sound too bad, right? But that was only because her homework was so good. She was flunking every test! After just a few weeks of tutoring, her grade is up to a 96% and her last two tests were A’s. She has so much more confidence about her math abilities. I can’t thank you enough! H.S. (parent of a 7th grader)

ANOTHER AMAZING ADULT STUDENT SUCCESS! 
“I am beginning to understand the hows and whys of the charts of grammar. 1st person = I, 2nd person = you, 3rd person = they and how it affects the ‘be’ word: I am, you are, he is, she is, it is, we are, you are, they are. Also, (I understand) the different forms of the ‘be’ word and how to use it properly in a sentence.” -C.G.
