As parents, we have noticed significant improvement in Jenny's overall academic participation and performance. Jenny has improved in self-initiating her homework, when in the past, it was more of a challenge. Jenny's handwriting has vastly improved as well. Jenny has made great strides in test taking and understanding math concepts, as well as English.
