- Lori helped my kids a lot! Constantly used simple questions. My eldest daughter is in 5th grade and studied with tutor Ms Lorie and we are very pleased and grateful to her for her help with Testing Mom. My kids have become more self-confident and stronger. Thanks a lot!
- My son had a great experience with Lori. She is kind, thoughtful and adjusts her lessons to the needs of my child or his motivation level for that particular day. Thank you!
- Lori Schuman is a fantastic tutor! My daughter enjoys Lori's classes, and she has an excellent teaching style. Lori is always willing to go above and beyond to ensure that my daughter understands new material if she is having difficulty. Her classes are always very interactive and interesting, which is especially important for young students. I highly recommend Lori. Thank you testingmom, for the opportunity to get to know Lori.
- Lori is wonderful. She genuinely cares about her students and works to help them reach their goals. She is ALWAYS kind and positive in her feedback NEVER negative, always found something positive to say about what the child did/or said and then gave a suggestion on how they could improve for next time. She is one in a thousand!
- I am very happy to let you know that my daughter has made it to GT program with outstanding scores. I would like to take a moment to thank you so much for all your effort you put in to get her to this level. Thank you so much and we will always reach out to you for any help we need. I can’t thank you enough.
- Thank you Lori for helping us and Dev make so much progress. Regardless of Hunter, it’s amazing to see how far he’s capable of coming in such a short time. It’s really night and day from when we started and he’s learned so much. Really appreciate you!
I would like to say thank you for your time and help with Vitaly’s preparation for OLSAT! We have received his result and would like to share the great news that Vitaly has been accepted to the AIM program.
We just got an email saying that she scored very well and qualified for the Gifted and Talented program. Despite there being a long gap between when you finished working with her, and when she actually took the test, as well as the fact that it was kind of a "pop quiz" she did well. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping her with preparing for this test. I know she's brilliant, and I didn't want this test to make her lose confidence. You definitely were instrumental in supporting her in this area!
