One of the biggest challenges for us so far has been the limitations of tutors who need my daughter to "bring" material to sessions and/or the "issues or problems" to the tutor. And, I was too focused on making sure a tutor knew my daughter's IB Math curriculum. Until today's session with Natasha (and starting with the communication with her leading up to the session), what I failed to realize, even in my own daughter, is that it is not the knowledge of curriculum per se (although that is important and helpful), it is the ability of the tutor to teach the material, to take the time to identify and fix gaps in understanding that hold students back. The difference here is that with Natasha, you pick a teacher (a college professor actually) who can teach mathematics, not a tutor who is smart and did well in certain math courses and/or on their standardized tests. Those qualifications do not mean they can identify the issue and then teach mathematics. The difference today was instantaneous; Natasha is an incredible teacher. We are so impressed. After years of struggling with math and her confidence in math, my daughter came out of the session smiling. Thank you, Natasha!

I think Natasha did an excellent job. She is genuinely kind person and an amazing tutor. She worked real hard with me and I would highly recommend her. Natasha is simply the best. She went beyond her call of duty in regards to making me understand a very difficult subject. I loved how she breaks down every problem, shows multiple examples, and explains the concepts to me in the simplest form. She is honestly the first educator to make me understand math.
