"My son isn't always easy to work with but Miss Barbara was able to find creative ways to help him through. He learned so much in the time he was able to spend with Miss Barbara. She worked with him at his own pace, he and I both appreciated that! She has such a great personality and even temperament, lessons were always pleasant." - Darci F.
