Instant connection

Lucia has been able to connect my daughter and engaged her to open up and trust her skills. My daughter can sometimes be hard to reach because she does not trust easily. Within the first 5 minutes, Lucia allowed my daughter to connect with her and this opened her up to follow Lucia in testing her skills. My daughter is pleased with her tutor and is ready for her next sessions. She didn’t feel judged for having dyslexia and she found that their was hope for her to exceed this learning disability. That it did not need to define her, but she can learn and overcome this!

Knowledgeable and very nice!

We only had one class so far, but my son liked it. Lucia is very nice, patient and knowledgeable. We are looking forward to working with her again and we hope to see improvement. I definitely would trust Lucia with my child and his educational needs, as she provides great services. Thank you.

I can’t say enough about Lucia . . .

I can’t say enough about Lucia, her experience and ability to empower dyslexics. Dyslexia doesn’t end at childhood. My adult daughter has had a trying time attempting to pass the numerous California tests required to enter a teaching credential program and classroom. Lucia is a pro at identifying weaknesses and coming up with a plan of attack. She has broad experience with the challenges that dyslexia presents which is apparent in her comprehension of the challenge. My daughter feels Lucia has unique compassion and understanding for dyslexics, without being dyslexic herself. It can be very difficult for a person to grasp the world of dyslexia and its nuances — Lucia strives to get to a place of understanding her student’s difficulties and in the process is very affirming. Affirmation goes a long way to bolstering up their confidence. More importantly, she possesses the skills needed to teach these bright learners!

Very patient with my daughter

Lucia explained where my daughter was with the Wilson program and helped me understand the program. I really appreciated that she took the time to explain the methodology to me.

Great tutor

My daughter has been studying the Wilson Program with Lucia for almost a year and we have seen such improvement in her reading. Now when she gets stuck she has strategies to help her and she is willing to try, before she would just shut down. She enjoys working with Lucia and feels better about herself since we started the tutoring. Lucia is compassionate, well organized, and a professional. We can't say enough about how much we appreciate Lucia and the reading skills she has taught our daughter.

Great Tutor

We continue to see improvement with Alexander and he gets used to school schedules again. Lucia continued working with my son after the summer break, getting back into the study habits was difficult for him, but Lucia continues to maintain a constant level of assertiveness to gain compliance. Lucia worked well with my son who can at times be less than attentive. Her methods kept him focused and he enjoyed the session. She was firm in her demeanor and he made good progress for the first lesson. We intend to continue with Lucia for his tutoring needs. Week 2 - Seeing improvement as the relationship continues to develop between Lucia and my son. While this process is not quick, I think Lucia is up to the task of dealing with a little boy who does not always focus well. Her methodology seems to be working well. Week 3 - Continue to see incremental improvements, Lucia works hard with my son, sometimes he is not always as attentive as he needs to be. It is obvious that Lucia cares about the progress made and is interested in his progress. week 4 - Lucia continues to explore alternative methods and techniques to apply to my son's tutoring. We are seeing positive results for the continued efforts and Lucia's willingness to approach the situation with different methods. So far so good! Week 5 - Lucia has used various techniques to break up the session into segments that my son can focus on, the results are improvements in his confidence and he is now sounding out words and not guessing.
