What Clients Are Saying About Us

Charlie J.

"Ad Alta does a remarkable job matching tutors to students’ specific academic needs and temperaments. Both tutors were equally able to bolster understanding and performance and to adjust flexibly to our dynamic family schedule."

Amy G.

"Ad Alta Tutoring helped ensure that my two sons had the support they needed to keep up with their school's fast paced Spanish classes. Their tutor made sure they clearly comprehended the material, were prepared for assessments, and could call her with questions at any time."

Nancy-Ann D.

“My two boys worked with Ad Alta for more than 5 years. Our tutor has a positive, patient, can-do attitude that made her a pleasure to work with. The boys’ confidence, study skills, and enthusiasm for learning Spanish all improved thanks to her (they became “A” students in a difficult program). I don’t know what we would have done without her and Ad Alta!”

Melvin C.

"The tutor was a great fit for my son. She was extremely knowledgeable and worked patiently with him, teaching to his strengths while also building up his weaker areas. His academic confidence is greatly improved."

Stephanie L.

"Ad Alta is the most organized and reliable tutoring service we have ever worked with. The tutors have helped our children prepare for tests and assignments, connect to and understand the subjects, boost confidence, and improve grades. They are extremely professional and genuinely vested in the academic success of my children. Highly recommended."

Kathy C.

“My children had a fabulous experience with our tutor. She was fun, inspiring, intelligent, and completely trustworthy. Because she made a monotonous subject engaging, my children actually looked forward to their weekly tutoring sessions and their grades improved quickly. I highly recommend Ad Alta!"

Alison S.

“My son would not have passed Spanish without Ad Alta. He really benefited from the tutor's patience and the fact that she helped him settle down and focus over the years. She is charming and a pleasure to work with, and everyone in the whole family, including the dog, liked her. We all miss her!”

Genemarie P.

“Ad Alta found a tutor that could work with the particular situation of our daughter. After missing months of school due to illness, she was able to make up the work with the help of her patient and supportive tutor. She received an A on the final exam and was able to continue on track! Thank you Ad Alta!”
