Testimonial
"After his first zoom meeting, where he worked on reading comprehension skills and strategies, he was laughing and smiling. He looked at me and said,
“Mom, I’m happy. Mrs. Byrnes made me happy!” My son has struggled with reading, so to hear him say this- brought tears to my eyes."

Testimonial
"Joanne has been remarkable in helping my son overcome his reading challenges.
At the end of first grade we were told that he was behind where he should be in reading, we engaged Joanne over the summer and just 7 months later he tested back on track and is actually now above average!
Joanne's custom techniques were tailored to our son's specific needs. She took an interest in his progress week to week, even asking to see his school assignments and feedback from his teacher and using that to guide the focus of each tutoring session.
We could not be happier with the outcomes and we will definitely continue to use Joanne to take our son's reading to the next level. We are even thinking of starting early reading support for our 3-year-old!
Thank you, Joanne, for everything! "
