Empowered Learners Dyslexia Tutoring

Syma has been a godsend. She is helping my child that is very behind in reading and we are strongly suspecting dyslexia. She utilizes the Orton-Gillingham Approach to Literacy and various multi sensory approaches to learning. My son's teacher said that he is already improving and Syma is confident we can get him caught up. The best part is that he loves going to Syma. There are no fights and he's always eager to go visit her and has fun at his sessions. You can't ask for anything better than that. Book her immediately. You will not regret it.

Over the past two years, Syma has been working with our 12-year-old son, who is dyslexic. She uses the Orton-Gillingham method. My son has made tremendous growth in phonemic awareness and decoding skills. He has gained more confidence as a reader. We have also seen improvement in his grades. He is more engaged in school and has less frustration when doing his homework. I am pleased with the growth my son has made and recommend Syma to anyone struggling with dyslexia.

My daughter was diagnosed with dyslexia, and has been working with Syma for the past seven months. Syma uses multi sensory tools and games to make every session fun. I often hear giggling during the tutoring sessions, and every time I ask how her tutoring session went, I invariably get a "Great!" accompanied by a huge smile.

Syma's sessions have made my daughter a much more confident reader and thinker, and for the first time ever, her report card said she was reading at grade level. It's been amazing to see how much she has grown under Syma's tutelage. Thank you!

We were so happy to find Syma. She is using the Orton-Gillingham method to help our son find ways to adapt to his dyslexia. She is extremely kind and my son loves meeting with her.

Syma helped me tremendously when I was a young adult. I wanted to attend college, but was not ready for college-level writing. Syma broke down the process of writing in a way that was unclear to me in high school. With Syma’s guidance, I was able to learn how to write essays that helped me thrive as a student, and ultimately helped me get into a competitive university. The impact of her work with me was tremendous and lasting. I recommend Syma to anyone interested in improving their writing skills.

Syma worked with me throughout middle and high school, building my reading comprehension and writing skills and helping me prepare for my private high school entrace exams. When it was time to apply for college, she worked with me write my my college essays, which helped me gain admittance to St. Mary's College with a big scholarship. I can't imagine how I would have survived those critical years without Syma

Syma achieved with our son what we could not possibly have accomplished without her. She prepared him for the school entrance exam in a way that simultaneously maximized his performance and minimized his stress. No easy feat! We will be forever grateful. Rick from Palo Alto

I grew up with Dyslexia. When I needed help, people like Syma were there to help when I needed it. If your child has dyslexia, I highly recommend Syma.
