What Parents Say
Amy swooped in when my son was overwhelmed in 7th grade and very quickly helped him organize his study time and assignments. His grades improved markedly and he started to feel good about his capabilities as a student. She also helped tremendously with his writing skills. The next year, she continued to help him until he reached a competency level where he did not need tutoring anymore. The organizational and language skills that she has taught our son have prepared him not only for high school but also for life.

Amy has an armory of study skills to teach and methods to increase learning efficiency across many subject areas. My sons are very different and she helped them both. Her knowledge, experience, and active, hands-on approach are well suited to helping students learn and grow.

Amy Siegel goes above and beyond. When our child was on a deadline with a paper to write, she would continue to work with him on it outside their usual tutoring time. She would go to Google docs to provide feedback and when that wasn't enough, she would call to help flesh out his ideas.

Our students enormously benefited from Mrs. Siegel's tutoring for the HSPT (Catholic High Schools Entrance Exam). Their scores improved by more than 20% over last year's scores. She also taught Study Skills and English. Mrs. Siegel's ability to connect with students where they are in their learning process and push them to new heights is truly extraordinary. Our students grew as writers and came to understand how to advocate for themselves. Mrs. Siegel has a special gift.

Amy Lechter-Siegel has worked with my daughter every week this school year as a history and English tutor, and she's been a great help, both with understanding the material and with writing and researching two rather complex papers. Amy is very conscientious, and always follows up with my daughter during the week, often several times to make sure she is on task. We are grateful to have found her.

Amy Siegel is kind and fair, yet she has high expectations for success. My son’s skills in reading and writing have improved greatly due to the broad array of learning strategies and options that Amy has introduced. His grades have improved as well.

Over this year, parents have been struck by the increasing strength we saw in our student's ability to analyze and do critical analysis of literature. Mrs. Siegel has taught them a unique and user-friendly way to analyze novels.

Amy broke everything down into charts and had my son learning and studying in chunks which were extremely helpful to him. She gave my son confidence. He was a different child this year than he was last. Her work with our son blew our expectations out of the water.

My daughter is an athlete and Mrs. Siegel understood the importance of her sports to her and helped her to balance her commitment to sports and school. My daughter is much more confident in her work now. She knows how to plan projects with so much less stress. Amy was also fabulous about communication with parents.

"We are so happy to have found Amy. We have worked with different tutors throughout the years and I can say without hesitation that one couldn't ask for a more devoted, experienced and knowledgeable academic tutor. She has very quickly identified the areas where my kid needs help and she is always thinking of the ideal strategies to encourage the most effective learning and to build confidence".
