• "We were very fortunate to have Ms. Zimmerman's tutoring services for our rising first grader. She makes learning fun and accessible even for the most squirmy and distractible children. Ms. Zimmerman is exceptionally skilled at meeting kids at their level and helping them stay engaged and enthusiastic as they learn. We saw great improvement in my daughter's reading ability thanks to her help. We highly recommend Ms. Zimmerman's services."

  • "We were lucky enough to have Ms. Zimmerman tutor our daughter to help prepare her for first grade because she did not have a traditional kindergarten year due to the pandemic. Our daughter was so excited every time Ms. Zimmerman worked with her—she had fun and learned a ton! She helped our daughter in her very beginning stages of reading and writing. Ms. Zimmerman made games out of learning letters, shapes, numbers, and sounds so that it was fun. Our daughter still sings some of the educational songs that Ms. Zimmerman taught her and fondly discusses some of the techniques that Ms. Zimmerman taught her for figuring out tough words. Ms. Zimmerman was extremely organized and reliable. She thought ahead about what she should teach, what supplies she would need, and what our daughter should work on in between. She knew when “break time” was needed and knew how to get our daughter re-energized to learn more. Ms. Zimmerman is an outstanding educator and has a true gift with children. She is passionate about helping children make real progress and taking ownership of their learning. She has a natural positive attitude and knew how to challenge our daughter while still being gentle and reassuring when new skills seemed tough. She takes the work very seriously and yet has a lightness about her that allows children to feel at ease and joyful even while completing challenging tasks. We feel blessed our daughter had the opportunity to be her student! We recommend her very highly!!"
