Stories of Progress and Success
Stephanie's Success
Both of my daughters have had such a positive experience with Ms. Demi.
Daughter, age 11, really appreciates how Ms. Demi helps her when she comes across a word she doesn’t know how to pronounce, taking the time to explain it in a way she understands. She also loves that Ms. Demi takes an interest in what she enjoys and gives her choices about what she wants or needs to work on. This makes Hailey feel involved and motivated in her learning.
Daughter, age 7, describes Ms. Demi as kind and loves that she gets to choose books based on her own interests. She especially enjoys how Ms. Demi makes learning interactive and fun through worksheets, games, and activities.
It’s wonderful to see how Ms. Demi tailors her approach to each child, making reading and math enjoyable while also building confidence and encouraging them to take an active role in their learning.

A Student's Perspective
Sometimes the best way to understand the impact of tutoring is to hear it directly from a student.
Here’s what one of my students has to say about her experience with Learn with Miss Demi!
Iyla's Journey
Demi worked virtually with my daughter to support her English reading and spelling skills. We are a primarily English speaking household; however, my children attend Spanish public school. We were in search of an Orton Gillingham trained tutor to help improve her English reading skills. Demi responded quickly when I reached out to her to inquire about tutoring. She was professional and took the time to understand what I was looking for and how she could help support my daughter. She met with my daughter for weekly sessions lasting 30 minutes. Demi was organized and engaging. She had materials planned before the session and maintained my daughter’s attention throughout. My daughter’s confidence in reading improved significantly thanks to Demi’s thoughtful and systematic approach. I would highly recommend Demi if you are looking for support with your child’s English reading, writing and spelling!
Wenao's Triumph
“During the weeks I spent learning English with Demi, I gained a lot. Demi has always encouraged me greatly, helping me stop being shy about speaking English, and with each time I speak, I gradually get better. Demi is also very responsible. She prepares teaching materials in advance, such as PPTs, to make teaching more efficient. I think Demi is a very good teacher, and I'm happy to have learned from her.”- Wenao, Zhejiang, China (English as a Second Language Test Prep)
