Testimonials:
"Our daughter was struggling severely with maths, to the degree that we had difficulty getting her to school each day. This created a lot of anxiety and lack of self esteem that was affecting her school work in other areas. We heard about the ALDON tutoring program and decided that we had to do something to help her overcome the problems she faced. After a few short weeks, we could see a dramatic improvement in her maths. The friendly and relaxed atmosphere at ALDON, helps her to enjoy learning. Even her school teacher often remarked on how well she had improved at maths and how her confidence and self esteem had grown. She seemed like a different person. You have been committed to improving our daughter’s understanding of maths and making it an enjoyable experience. We strongly recommend the ALDON teaching method to assist any child that experiences difficulties in learning. We have been truly amazed with the results.
Yours Sincerely,
ROB and JENNY."
