Abby tutored my HS Senior daughter in preparation of her ACT test this last December 2016 with the…read moregoal of raising her overall score, especially her math. Abby relates very well to young adults, my daughter said she covered a lot of information, explained it very well and kept the pace right at what she could integrate (given our short timeframe.) She was familiar with both SAT & ACT testing formats and gave her valuable tips which assisted her in raising her ACT score 3 points which put my daughter in scholarship range. I would recommend Abby to any student or parent needing assistance-particulary our experience with math. THANK YOU Abby!

From the owner: Hello neighbors! My name is Abby Larson and I am a professional tutor in Multnomah Village. I offer…read morespecialized, effective tutoring in math, the sciences, Spanish language, and SAT/ACT prep. As a tutor, I not only prepare students to reach their academic goals, but also serve as a mentor, helping them to discover their own ability to learn, persevere, and grow. I also provide strategies for academic success beyond high school, focusing on study habits, organization, and personal goal setting. Lessons with me are comprehensive, interactive, and fun. I understand that different learners need different modes of teaching; therefore, I tailor my lessons to students' specific needs. I am experienced in teaching for different modes of learning and learning disabilities. Lastly, I work with the student and their family, keeping parents informed (via weekly email updates) on their child's goals, progress, and homework, as well as our plan for upcoming lessons.

I've been studying Spanish with Gail for the past few years, focusing on conversational classes,…read moreand I can't recommend her highly enough. What sets Gail apart is her ability to tailor each session to your specific needs, interests, and level. She doesn't follow a one-size-fits-all approach, which makes the learning experience feel both relevant and engaging. Gail creates a comfortable, supportive environment that builds confidence in speaking, which is often the hardest part of learning a language. She is incredibly reliable, always prepared, and consistent--something that really matters when you're committing to long-term learning. Beyond that, she has a great ability to challenge you in the right ways, pushing your skills forward while still making the process enjoyable. After three years, I've seen meaningful progress in my fluency and comfort level, which is a direct reflection of her thoughtful, personalized approach.

I've been learning Spanish with Gail for years now. Specifically, she has helped me gain confidence…read morein speaking and now we meet once a week for conversation so I can continue learning and speaking with someone. When I started with her, I could barely string words together, now, we have real conversations about life. Gail is a fantastic teacher and has the patience of a saint! She also meets you where you're at and tailors her teaching to your needs and goals. I HIGHLY recommend Gail for private Spanish tutoring. I can't speak highly enough of her!!!!!

I'd been exploring using NWRC for nearly three years for my son when I finally pulled the trigger…read moreand enrolled him. I'm so grateful I finally made the decision because it's made an even bigger difference than I thought possible! NWRC's team is consistent, conscientious, and detailed. They got to know my son (both through their extensive testing, and also by working so closely with him one on one) and due to their, and his, hard work he finally broke through a number of issues he'd be struggling with when it came to reading. He now reads above grade level and is able to experience more success in other areas of his education as a result of finally having strong reading skills. If you're on the fence, just go ahead and enroll. You absolutely will not regret it.

NW reading clinic was able to do for my daughter what the public school system failed to do for…read moreyears- bring her reading level up! If your first thought is "it's too expensive"- you are not alone. Did we love spending this much money? No- but the quality of instruction at NW reading clinic is really top notch. No amount "regular tutors" were going to help our daughters achievements in the way that Northwest Reading clinic was able to. She progressed significantly in the Time that she worked with Northwest Reading clinic, and we will be doing another few months this summer again to help her further progress. If your child has challenges in reading, run, don't walk, to their website now and get your child evaluated. You will be glad you did. (and our daughter loved both of her tutors Tutors!!!)

Love this place. Pauline and staff really have a heart for the kids and have an in-depth knowledge…read moreof their profession and have such great ideas for their program. My son has been working for Mrs. Pauline Lee for over 8 years and all I can say is I love the positive influence she has had on his life and needless to say on the kids at the school.

I can't recommend Club Z highly enough. Sharyn took the time to get to know my son and found the…read moreperfect tutor for him. Kammie was amazing and after the first visit my son asked my why no one had ever explained the writing process like that before! Kammie was flexible, prompt, courteous and worked very well with my son. He is a junior at Wilson High School with a very busy sports schedule and Kammie was able to work around it and we really appreciate all her efforts!

I love club Z! Sharyn, the owner is great. She came to our house to assess my sons special needs…read moreand hire a specific tutor for him. He is on the autism spectrum and not always easy at all to work with. He was assigned Lissy, who is exceptionally patient with him, when is is not always happy to be tutored over his summer. He has gone from not knowing his multiplication facts to doing divisionin a matter of weeks. I definitely recommend Liss, Club Z and the one on one attention a chilod receives from this service.
