Testimonials

“My daughter was struggling to decode unfamiliar three letter words in 4th grade, reading assignments took her forever to get through, and she hated free writing because she was afraid to misspell words. After working with Bright for 1.5 years, my daughter is on grade level for reading and writing. Although she does have accommodations in class, her being able to attend class with her peers has really helped her self-esteem. She HATED going to the “baby” class. Plus, being taught in a way she understands has really boosted her self-confidence and we aren’t hearing the negative self-talk from her like we used to. It’s been life changing for her!

Anne took such a thoughtful approach to my daughter’s learning needs and adjusted lessons and practice assignments to best suit my child. I can’t imagine anyone regretting having their child do this program and I wish even my older kids that don’t have learning disabilities could have been taught this way to read and spell.”
Charity, Parent
“I have had the pleasure of having Ms. Anne be my tutor for over six years now. She was a mentor to me in more ways than one. She not only taught me how to find the roots to words and how to form squiggly lines into fascinating fonts; she taught me how practise patience can turn into something truly beautiful - learning. She has given me the tools to go forth in my academic career with confidence and understanding. I’m so grateful to have had someone as amazing as Ms. Anne as tutor.

Thank you”
Anna
“My daughter, A, received tutoring from Anne Cernyar for seven years for dyslexia and dysgraphia. From the beginning, Anne approached every lesson with patience, creativity, and encouragement. She made learning fun and engaging, which helped A not only build her skills but also her confidence.

Today, A is thriving in school—confident in her abilities and motivated to succeed. We are so grateful for Anne’s dedication and the positive impact she has had on A’s academic journey and self-esteem. I highly recommend Anne to any family seeking a compassionate and effective tutor.

Concise version:

Anne tutored my daughter A for seven years in dyslexia and dysgraphia. She was patient, creative, and made learning fun. Thanks to Anne, A is now confident and thriving in school.”
Jennifer, Parent
“Our daughter has made remarkable progress in reading fluency working with Anne. Anne is flexible, professional and easy to work with. She took time to understand how to best engage our daughter and craft an effective tutoring approach. Our daughter really enjoys the sessions and the two have a lot of fun together!”
