Pre-K Tutoring
“Although my children are much younger, I too sought tutoring recommendations thru Next Door and was fortunate to have been connected with Michelle Kaplan-Cohen who runs a tutor matching company. I was able to review resumes and interview the tutors in advance and selected an in-person teacher to come to our home twice weekly. I pay via Venmo and my family and I couldn’t be happier! My kids enjoy their time with our tutor and have made great strides!”

Middle School History and Algebra Tutoring
“I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say how pleased we are to be working with our tutor. My son just turned in a big history paper that the tutor played a large role in teaching him how to research, draft, and finalize. I would not have been able to teach Ryan everything that the tutor was able to. More importantly, the tutor kept Ryan from feeling overwhelmed at any one point. The tutor also made herself available for longer sessions and extra sessions so she could continue to work through the writing process with my son and show and teach him how it's done. We couldn't have gotten through this paper without her. And my son would be drowning in math without her help reinforcing the concepts.”
