          “I went to Mrs. W-B in 11th needing help with my writing skills. She made it very easy for me to become a better writer. Her writing methods and strategies make me capable of comprehending how to confidently structure an essay and develop my analytical expression. Altogether she has helped me grow as a writer while also strengthening other elements of my junior and senior high school English curriculum.

          “I would recommend Mrs. W-B to anyone who feels overwhelmed and/or uncomfortable in English; she can really help you understand writing and analysis of the texts.”

          Drew, Radnor, Class of 2018

          “I came to Mrs. W-B for tutoring because I heard very good recommendations from friends about her, and she met those expectations! I needed help with my writing and how to organize a paper. Mrs. W-B greatly improved my writing by listening to what I had to say, writing down my thoughts, and offering great organizational tools. Also, Mrs. W-B goes out of her way to help me with what I need, from learning material assigned in class to helping me break down a text when I need to read it more deeply.”
