<\/span>My son has recently starting tutoring with Tutoring…With A Twist and it has been an entirely positive experience. I love that they took the time to get to know my son and our family in the initial planning meeting, and continue to adjust the lessons to his needs, instead of just forcing tired lesson plans. I’m also a big fan of the monthly invoicing, as we went with a big franchise tutor in the past who made us pre-pay over a thousand dollars upfront for a large block of hours before we even knew if tutoring would help. Tutoring…With A Twist just does such a good job of putting people first. Highly recommend!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
Melissa Vasey, Parent Of A Twisted Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>hired Tutoring… with a twist based on the reviews I read. And they were so right! My son has such a good connection with his tutor, Chris, and actually enjoys doing Math and English because of him. I love the monthly updates on progress, and the owner got in touch with my son\u2019s teacher so we know where the class is. Chris is very flexible and always keeps in touch to ensure he is in the right place at the right time.
\nI highly recommend Tutoring… With A twist.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\tTara McFee, Parent Of A Twisted Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>We engaged a tutor to help with physics and pre-calculus. In our case it was a matter of helping review material that was being covered very quickly at school. We needed things to be explained more fully and presented in a new way, because sometimes learning styles don’t match the school teacher’s teaching style. The tutor was wonderful at all of this, helping to cover those bits missed during the week and hone in on problem areas we didn’t even know about. Engaging a tutor also helped us see the issues and set up a study schedule for the rest of the week that really worked. My child’s goal was to achieve an A and she did that with much hard work and guidance. Our greatest benefit was seeing her confidence return, along with her independence in the subjects.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
Shannon Cowan, Parent of A Twisted Math Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>My daughter was struggling with reading, she transferred over from French Immersion to English for this very reason and was still struggling. We realized it was just a little delay but she needed some help.
\nWe chose tutoring with a twist as it was recommended by friends, we couldn’t be happier that we enrolled our daughter!
\nOur daughter can read! After only attending about 2-3 sessions we saw such am improvement, I was actually shocked at how quickly learning in a different manner helped her reading improve.
\nThank you!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\tChelsea Hall<\/span><\/span>Parent of a Twisted English Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>We were looking for someone to help motivate our child, which is a challenge. We hadn’t used a tutor before due to cost. We used this company as I had seen the owner\u2019s, Amber Scotchburn, name before. They helped get our child on track, as our “Twisted Tutor” was lovely!! (Our Tutor was kind, supportive, fun, and even tolerated our annoying dogs!).
\nI totally trust the Tutor with our child, the company is easy to work with, and the report they supply allows you to track your child’s progress.
\nWe will be using them again!!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\tCarolynne Schofield<\/span><\/span>Parent of a Twisted Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>The problem I was trying to solve was to help my daughter Emily with her math. I wanted her to enjoy math and not be afraid to ask questions when she doesn\u2019t understand something. I choose Tutoring With A Twist because they make it fun for my daughter to learn. My daughter was only getting 2\/5 on her weekly math quizzes before she starting getting help in math. When my daughter had only been with the Twisted Tutor for about three weeks, we were super excited as she got an 88% on her math quiz! I would highly recommend Tutoring With A Twist for any child that is struggling in school.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
Sheri Titus<\/span><\/span>Parent of a Twisted Math Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>We had previously avoided tutoring due to the potential costs, but decided that our 16-year old son needed help with organization, time management and prioritization before it was too late. Leaving it to him or trying to “nag” him into getting his work done wasn’t working for him or for us. We noticed a minivan with the Tutoring With a Twist logo outside the North End Library and decided to give it a go. The owner, Amber Scotchburn, is easy to deal with and the Twisted Tutor has quickly gained our son’s respect (which is not an easy task). Our Tutor is flexible with dates and times when necessary and has helped our son keep up with his schoolwork, and in fact he has also taken on extra classes through Learn at Home. It’s still a work in progress, but a huge improvement. We will be continuing with our Twisted Tutor through the summer to get a head start on next year.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
Diane Frankcom<\/span><\/span>Parent of a Twisted High School Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>When we approached Tutoring With A Twist, it was to find help for our son who was struggling with both high school Math and English. We had investigated other tutoring agencies but felt they didn\u2019t have the one-on-one more intimate approach that Tutoring With A Twist offers. As a busy, working, blended family, we found that we weren\u2019t always able to dedicate the time to learning with our son and, quite frankly, we were also struggling with the content (it\u2019s been a while since we\u2019ve been in high school and things have certainly changed!). Tutoring With A Twist has been amazing in helping our son achieve his goals and in not only understanding the content, but in being comfortable with learning. Our Twisted Tutor is the perfect match to our son\u2019s personality and learning style\u2026 we couldn\u2019t have picked a better tutor to work alongside him! Tutoring With A Twist has definitely helped out our son with understanding his school work and as a side benefit, his confidence in his abilities has greatly improved.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
Andrew Hawkins<\/span><\/span>Parent of a Twisted Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>I recommend Tutoring With A Twist to my friends and other parents at my kids’ school. My child has dyslexia and learning difficulties with math. She receives help with reading comprehension at the school but not with math. I choose Tutoring With A Twist because they had someone who specialized in learning difficulties. My child’s Tutor this year has kept her on track, has her progressing in math and creative writing each week. If she didn’t have the tutoring help in math, she wouldn’t be keeping up with the school curriculum. The best part is her Twisted Tutor makes it fun to learn, which keeps my daughter in focus and enjoying her tutoring sessions. I also appreciate how organized Tutoring With A Twist is beginning with setting up a plan and receiving monthly reports on what my daughter is working on and how she is progressing. Keeps me in the loop!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
Sheri Jackson<\/span><\/span>Parent of a Twisted Math Student<\/span><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/span>My daughter was behind a couple grades in math and struggled to understand concepts and would become frustrated at times. We tried extra work at home and different methods recommended by teachers but nothing helped. I wasn’t initially sure if paying for a tutor would really help as there are so many that say they could but I’ve heard they don’t do much. Tutoring With A Twist uses a different approach to learning and with all their different tutors so I thought they might be able to help my daughter. After showing her their website she wanted to try. My daughter looks forward to seeing her tutor and she is able to work more independently in class and home. She doesn’t get as frustrated with things and thanks to her Twisted Tutor she has learned new problem-solving skills. The team members are awesome, so understanding and they not only help your child to understand but will work with you to help them too. My daughter\u2019s Twisted Tutor always makes sure she understands and goes above and beyond to do so and to keep me involved and learn too. Her tutor, as I’m sure so do others, really do care whether your child succeeds not only with the actual course they need help with, but to have to confidence to do so later. I love the Twisted Reports they put out each month, so that you know where your child is at and if you have any questions they are awesome at answering them. If your child ever needs help with their schooling, I’d tell people you’d be a fool not to consult this agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t
