"Teacher Michelle helped my child go from failing her ELA class, to passing with a B! Sarah was behind in school due to her slow reading speed and was always getting questions wrong in comprehension homework and class work. Teacher Michelle worked closely with Sarah, finding why she was reading slowly, and made a personalized strategy to help her. She was friendly and my child really enjoyed working with her!

I've grown up playing tennis since age 4, climbed up to a top 50 player in texas U16, reached a 10 UTR and played line 1 for my Varsity HS team. Went to Ucla and began coaching over 15 kids. I coached kids of all skill levels, but my style of coaching mainly benefits kids who are looking to hit a lot of balls and play points/sets. Obviously I tailor my coaching to all skill levels, but those looking for more intense hitting will benefit more.
