“by connecting with my daughter and explaining clearly and building her confidence in the subject”- Yolanda
“ Maxine is a star I don't know how she got Junior to participate coz he's shy, stammers a bit. All this led him to being less confident. Thanks to Maxine, Junior got his confidence back. I am positive that he'll do well in his final exam. Thank you so much ”- Gladys
