<h2>Connor Fenton</h2>
<blockquote>
I was a Graduate student at the College of William and Mary who
needed to pass a Latin Language test as part of my degree
requirements. I was struggling with refreshing my Latin after a few
years out of the classroom and Amy was both professional and
helpful. With her tutoring I was able to pass my test and finish my
degree. She is very considerate and easy to work with.

<h2>Marie & Robert</h2>
<blockquote>
I highly recommend Amy as a dissertation coach. Amy is a very kind
and patient person. Over the time we worked together, she helped me
take down the barriers that were preventing me from moving forward
in my process and assisted me in creating a plan to get to the
finish line and achieve my goal. She was very helpful with revising
and editing my writing to strengthen it. She helped me think
creatively, so I could clarify and expand upon my findings. Amy not
only pointed out grammatical errors and typos, but she made sure I
was able to keep my voice consistent in my writing. Because of her,
I was able to finish my doctoral degree, something that I will be
forever grateful to her for.

Amy is a wonderful tutor who helped my child (who does not like
help at all) though [sic] some difficult classes where the teacher
was not providing the support my child needed. Highly recommended.
