“My son started working with Caroline five years ago when he was in eighth grade.  With Caroline’s assistance, his writing and analytic skills have greatly improved.   My son has excelled in his high school honors English and history classes and has really improved his writing.”

“Our daughter is constantly saying how you continue to be her favorite English teacher of all time. Thank you for challenging her to reach new highs in your class.”

“Our son leaves for college in the fall as a strong and confident writer.  I believe we’ve given him a terrific gift in that he will be prepared to handle any assignment in college and to know how to research and write papers.  We can’t recommend Caroline highly enough.”
