"Iona Mam is an excellent tutor, guide and mentor, specially for the kids who are lagging in their academics. She worked very hard with my son and taught him how to write alphabet, two/three letters words, short sentences etc. Made him comfortable with number identification/ counting / writing/ addition etc. Apart from academics she is a very good human being. Very hardworking, dedicated towards her work and goals. I wish her all the best for all future endeavours. Keep doing good work. Thanks once again. "
