My son was diagnosed with autism, and I felt lost. The doctor advised me to love him as he is and not to expect too much.
When he first started tutoring with Yvonne, he was non-verbal and would only participate while sitting on his aunt's lap for 15-minute sessions, as he would cry if left alone. Yvonne showed incredible patience. We began with those short sessions before gradually moving to half-hour sessions on his own.
I love that Yvonne tailors her teaching to his interests. For instance, if he was into cars, they would count tires and wheels together. Over time, he became comfortable with her.
During the pandemic, I panicked about what to do next, but Yvonne helped us gradually increase his tutoring to two hours per day, and he is excelling! He’s now reading, writing, and even engaging with her by challenging her every step of the way.
He is not the easiest child to tutor, and there are times I feel for both him and Yvonne. However, her patience and understanding of the need for breaks have made all the difference. He has been with her for six years and counting, and I couldn't be more grateful!

I just wanted to share how much our experience with To Learn Is Empowering (TLIE).
This tutoring service has helped my son in 7th-grade math, particularly with algebraic equations, and fractions. Before enrolling him in the program, he was struggling with these topics, and his grades were suffering as a result.
However, since he started attending the tutoring sessions, we've seen a significant improvement in his understanding of these specific math concepts, and his grades have improved noticeably.
The tutors are patient, and knowledgeable, and have been able to break down complex topics in a way that my son can easily understand. I'm grateful for the difference they have made in my son's academic performance.
I highly recommend TLIE Tutoring Service to any parent whose child needs extra support in any schooling area.

Long before the birth of “To learn is Empowering”, I had the pleasure of meeting the founder Yvonne through a mutual contact and I was very impressed with our first encounter with her, and the teaching approach she was going to apply when tutoring my nephew, who was so far behind in his intellectual capabilities for his age.
Without hesitation, I placed my nephew in Yvonne’s capable hands and watched as she tutored him like one of her own child and within 3 months his teachers where wondering what happened. I received phone calls and emails from his teachers regarding his significant progress academically in such a short time.
He transitioned from IEP to independent learning in 1 school year. His self confidence/soft skills when he got to secondary school, was beyond what anyone could have imagined.
Much gratitude goes to Yvonne and her team for nurturing the children of our future, bringing out the best in each child and allowing each child to “bloom where they are planted”.
One of the most inconceivable characteristics of this unique program is the follow-up after a child has graduated from the program. Yvonne constantly calls or texts to follow up on my nephew’s progress academically and otherwise.
Once again Yvonne my gratitude for your noble act of selflessness. You are truly a magnanimous person.
Warmest regards,
