Excellent teacher
ULADZIMIR, 333 lessons with DonWe have been working with Don for two years. Our child enjoys reading with Don, he always has excellent choices for books they read and he is excellent in engaging our son in reading and conversing. Don always makes sure that our child understands context and particular words, notices when break is needed and makes it interactive and fun. We are thankful to see our son’s growing reading skills and will continue to work with Don.

First tutor session
First tudor session went great. Mr. Don made our son feel comfortable and he inquired about our son's interests so that he could incorporate that into the lesson.

Don is a tremendous help with supporting my 3rd grader in reading fluency and multiplication facts. I'm confident that with continued tutoring session, my 3rd grader will be reading above grade level.

Extremely helpful teacher!
We love him!! I have two boys taking his online classes. Those are really helpful for improving boys reading and writing skills. Especially helping them to discover the fun for reading and have a good reading habit. Under his recommendations, boys read a lots of books which are real good for young readers! We are so appreciate for his excellent work!

Max is very knowledgeable about his subject.
Don taught me that vocabulary acquisition takes time. It comes from reading a lot, and finding out how words are used. He gave me some resources, to start out with, in which I will definitely start using.

good start
My son enjoyed working with Don. This was his first lesson. Don engaged my son with questions that were meaning to him and do my son did well with tasks that he typically doesn't like to do- reading and typing. It was great!

Patient and tries to get student more involved
My daughter has had 4 classes with Don so far and we are very happy with the progress. He found movies she likes and picked out books that match the theme - so she could read them and learn to take notes as well as draw out comparisons. Looking forward to seeing her improve over the summer.
