Literacy tutor shares her experience

August 12, 2022

Lauren Kelly has been tutoring Tristan since January 2022! She continued throughout the summer and plans to tutor him in the fall. 

“My experience at GiGi’s is nothing short of incredible. My greatest joy of the week is coming to GiGi’s Playhouse on Tuesdays to tutor Tristan. He is a light in so many ways and his eagerness to learn always amazes me. After a hard day of learning new literacy tactics, he always has a smile on his face. This shows his ability to conquer new ideas with such a positive attitude and work ethic. It is such a heartwarming experience to be able to see how much progress he makes after each session. I look forward to seeing what he accomplishes next!”
