Parent Testimonial

“Our daughter loves going to Smart Kidz. The math tutoring takes place in a positive and supportive environment that helps her to study and learn a subject that she otherwise struggles with at school. Smart Kidz has really made a difference in not only her abilities in math but also her confidence. It is also good for her to be around other children who also have learning disabilities and are working hard to achieve success. There is a real sense of not only care for individual students but also the group as a whole. Going to Smart Kidz is time very well spent. We are very grateful to have this resource as we believe that it has helped to give her a solid foundation for success at school.”
