Rana

Experienced tutor for 30+ yrs, and still making it easy!

When I was in school, I had no idea which end was up. So, I knew what it felt like to receive a failed test back, as well as the overwhelming feeling of devastation, when I had to face my parents and teachers. The materials the schools use, the methods they incorporate, and the teacher's attitudes can all take their toll on a student's ability to learn. Add a few nerves to the mix and you can clearly see how things can get out of hand. That's why my students are taught to approach prob...

ADD/ADHD

I have 5 children. Three of those five were diagnosed with various serious medical issues. As such, I chose to home-school two of them and allow the third to remain in school. Two of those children, along with their other ailments, had severe ADHD. One also had a spatial deficit which means his hand to eye coordination was very strained, at best. Additionally, I worked with many ADHD/Special Ed teachers and counselors, via the school system. I developed dozens of programs that not only helped my children, but the students in the various schools, too.

Aspergers

I not only have an autistic grandson, an asperger's diagnosed son, and a dyslexic brother, I was also an assistant at Pine Lake Elementary for the ESE/Special Ed Program, for several years. Additionally, I took several courses in college that dealt with various disabilities, and I assisted many teachers to get their own master's degree in the same. I have also developed many programs which help children and adults that are afflicted with various disabilities, to reach and accomplish goals that exceed their greatest expectations. Given time and patience, these students can do anything, and I make them realize that!

My Tutor is patient but persistent. She seeks to develop a solid understanding of each math element before moving on to the next. She is direct but helpful. She certainly has been helpful to me to grasp concepts that I failed to master while in school........GB

Rana is an Awesome Math Tutor! She has a unique talent for teaching math and making it really easy to learn. Our daughter is in the 11th grade and she had an F in algebra the first quarter of school. After a few months with Rana as her tutor she had an A. Her math teacher also gave her an Award for most improved. My daughter's teacher was asking her how Rana taught her she was very impressed with how quickly our daughter improved her grade. Last week she got a 88 out of 89 on her math test!


Christina B. from Winter Haven, FL

Rana has been tutoring my 4th grader and 10th grader for about 2 months. When we first came to her the 10th grader had all F's and the 4th grader was definitely struggling in math and reading. Since working with Rena both kids have shown great academic improvement. The 4th grader is on the honor roll and my 10th grader has all A's and B's except for one class. Hiring Rena to tutor them was one of the best things I have ever done. She is fun and patient and works with our hectic schedule. I wished now that I would have hired her sooner.


Milagros A. from Clermont, FL

Rana got to the task and quickly pinpointed the area I needed assistance with. We worked at a good pace that helped me flow the info as I solved the problems. At the end, my mind said "I got it this time". I felt confident as we ended the day. Rana is a true effective tutor, I would recommend her for sure.


Marla C. from Brandon, FL

I have found the perfect tutor for my two sons and her name is Rana. Both of my boys were struggling in math and not feeling very confident. My oldest is a freshman in high school taking Algebra I and getting C's. My youngest is a fourth grader and also getting C's in math. Rana has been tutoring them both for only three weeks and already my oldest son has gone from a 'C' to a 'B' in Algebra I and he has said he could not have improved without Rana's help. My youngest son is continuing to improve as well and he looks forward to his tutoring sessions. We started tutoring in mid January and already my fourth grader's teacher told him "I don't know what you are doing and what happened over Christmas break, but you are doing great in math". He is much more confident now and he no longer hates math. We are all smiles thanks to Rana.


Jason B. from Valrico, FL

My tutor is awesome! She is really outgoing. She takes the time to explain each and every sentence in the story so I can understand what the story really means. She is very funny and entertaining. I would rate her 100 instead of 10 because she is the best tutor in the world. I passed my math, because she is really pro in math. She used fun math games and she helped me to remember the formulas by teaching me cool math tricks. She even showed me some cool magic tricks that helped me to remember my math and language arts.


Victoria D. from Bartow, FL

Rana is a very patient tutor. She is one of the best and she utilizes her time allotted efficiently and finishes the lesson even beyond the hour. She is not a watch watcher. She smiles and laughs with me making the lesson enjoyable.


David A. from Winter Haven, FL

Rana She has been excellent. She uses techniques to teach that are not in books, only techniques that she has learned and developed over the years as she actually knows the material. She is very reliable and dedicated. What ever problem you have she can help you and teach it to you in a way that you will understand. She has been indispensible and fantastic. Of all the teachers and tutors she has been the absolute best without doubt.


Sandra P. from Lakeland, FL

Rana is an outstanding tutor. Rana cares very much about her student. she wants to make sure that you are understanding what she is teaching. She simplify equations so that you do understand them. I look forward to my Math class since my tutoring session with Rana. Rana is the BEST!!


Miriam G. from Haines City, FL

My son has only had (2) 2 hour lessons but already I can see a significant difference in his outlook. My son has never really been too keen on matters related to education. All of sudden, he is asking questions, and looks forward to his lessons. I don't have to twist his arm to watch the History Channel or practice his Vocabulary words (as per Rana's instructions of course). There is a spark in his eyes that I have never seen before and his self esteem is increasing. Rana uses positive re-enforcement consistently throughout her lessons. She also fills in the missing gaps, before moving forward. It is obvious that she cares and enjoys what she is doing! Sincerely, A grateful Mom


Ebony J. from Mulberry, FL

Mrs Rana is one the most patient tutors you'd every want to meet. She always has an encouraging word to lift your spirits and makes each lesson fun!


Christine W. from Lakeland, FL

Rana has only been tutoring our 14 year old 9th grader in Algebra I for a few weeks but I can already see a boost in her level of confidence. 14 can be a tough age to get through to but she has been able to each session. She is very patient and engages my daughter in the sessions. Rana is direct and I appreciate her matter of fact attitude and her obvious knowledge and love for what she does. My daughter looks forward to her coming because even though she knows she is learning Rana doesn't make it seem like such a terrible thing. Highly recommended!!


Beverly C. from Auburndale, FL

Rana swooped in, engaged my 11 year old son, and in no time had him performing first at grade level and now above grade level. He is performing with confidence and is making all A's in math. This is a huge turn around attributable to Rana. She is timely, fun and conscientious. If you are looking for a tutor who "gets kids" and can explain math in a fun and simple way, you need to contact Rana.


Salim L. from Winter Haven, FL

Rana not only has the qualifications required for tutoring but does it with fun! Since she has been tutoring my son for his daily homework, his grades have been great! He enjoys doing his homework with such a skilled and fun person. I would recommend her without reserves!


Tyra G. from Lakeland, FL

When Rana began working on math skills with our son, she was able to pinpoint his problem areas within the first couple of sessions. After just a few weeks, we could see that his confidence and comprehension were improving. Rana uses several different methods of instruction to keep the student actively engaged in each session. This is very helpful since our son has a relatively short attention span. We've been very pleased with the progress that Rana has made with our son!


Erica W. from Lakeland, FL

Rana is very knowledgeable with the different concepts of math (College Algebra). She comes very prepared with tutorials, videos, etc. She taught math in a way that I would understand and remember. She's very patient, and doesn't mind reviewing if you don't understand. I would recommend her to anyone who is having difficulty in math. Rana is the "BEST"!!!


Riddhi P. from Lakeland, FL

I am beyond happy with my sons tutor lessons with Miss Rana. she is very patient and really makes an effort to make sure that my son understands. He feel much more confident for reading she is professional and excellent tutor. I highly recommended her as a reading tutor.


Elizabeth P. from Auburndale, FL

Rana is a very patient teacher with my daughter. She makes her feel that she is capable to to achieve anything anyone can. My daughter has taken few classes with her, and I have seen a big difference. I'm very grateful to her for all her help.


Annette W. from Lakeland, FL

My son has struggled in math and school in general. I got the first report card since beginning the tutoring with Rana. My son's grades are up and he feels better about his ability to do more of his school work. His confidence is up and so is his self-esteem. His math teacher at school is giving him full credit on class participation. This is something my son would never contribute to. His grade has come up in just a few weeks by two letter grades.


Wendy V. from Winter Haven, FL

Rana has been a great help to my son this year. She helped him prepare for the ACT & SAT. Her teaching methods seemed to really help him, as he improved his test scores! I would recommend Rana to other parents looking for a tutor for their child in the Winter Haven area.


Jocelyn P. from Lakeland, FL

My daughter is academically more advanced than I was in school decades ago. I felt so helpless attempting to help her in 8th grade math. She is in advance everything! In one night Rana lifted some of the fog, and my daughter went to school feeling more confident. To me that was priceless. I thank God for Rana and my daughter will continue to excel in math. Rana is platinum, the best that there ever was and is!


Kimberly K. from Winter Haven, FL

Rana is a wonderful tutor. She is very knowledgeable and patient. Her teaching methods have been very helpful to my son.


Annette P. from Winter Haven, FL

Rana is an excellent tutor. She helped me pass a math test with just a couple of lessons. She is very patient and fun.


Lisa S. from Lakeland, FL

Rana is an exceptional tutor. Her energy and teaching style is just what my daughter needed to get interested in math. She thoroughly enjoys their time together!


Nicole R. from Lakeland, FL

Rana is endlessly patient with my 11 year old son who has a myriad medical, behavioral and learning deficits. She maintains composure and care even in his worst moments. Not only have I seen Rana redirect his interests, but I have also seen the pride he has when he succeeds at a task. I would highly recommend Rana to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and kind educator.


Marvin S. from Haines City, FL

Rana is a fantastic teacher. She is able to assess a students problem areas and effectively communicate with the student on how to learn and solve problems in a way that the student can relate. Our son has struggled with math and Rana has been able to create an environment of learning that is highly effective. The results have been just amazing and I would recommend Rana to any parent or student.
