Testimonials

"Mandy was a wonderful math therapist for our daughter, who was struggling with dyscalculia. When we started working with her, our daughter was testing well below grade level on standardized tests, but after a year of therapy, not only is our daughter keeping up with peers, but she passed the math assessments of every middle school we applied to. I knew things finally clicked when our daughter told us that she was finally raising her hand in class and volunteering to explain math concepts to her classmates. Mandy was also easy to work with, patient and kind. Our daughter looked forward to therapy every week, and I think it was because she was proud of all the progress she was making. We'd highly recommend Mandy!"

"Mandy Arendtsz showed up for us with her math expertise when we needed it most -- during the COVID19 pandemic and school lockdowns. Her caring and calm demeanor combined with her multisensory instruction grounded in the Making Math Real methodology was exactly the support our dyslexic 11-year-old twins needed to be successful. Even now that our kids are back in school and not seeing Mandy as much, they still cite her as their favorite math teacher ever. In addition to her math skills, Mandy also has insights into how kids are feeling in the moment, and she has a good sense of when to push and when to shift gears. This ability to "read" kids is another reason she is such a great tutor."
