We are delighted to have come across Laila, who is an exceptional math tutor and mentor. Two years ago, we were grappling with a dire situation where my daughter was barely keeping up with math and her previous tutor's support had yielded no results. As a parent, it was overwhelming for me to understand where to begin to remedy the situation. Fortunately, I found Laila, and I was drawn to her positive attitude and dedication towards helping my child. The outcomes were remarkable, and I never regretted my choice. On days when my child was struggling with confidence and self-esteem, Laila worked her magic to instill a sense of self-worth in her once again. Laila quickly identified where my daughter required assistance, and with her bright smile, helped her overcome her academic challenges. We had a lot of making up to do, and Laila's time was a valuable investment. We are grateful for Laila's unwavering commitment to her students, and her warm and nurturing approach makes her exceptional. Thank you, Laila 💜

Collaborating with Laila proved to be the ideal solution for enhancing my niece's mathematical abilities! After every session, she was thrilled and enthusiastic about math. This invaluable sensation has left her feeling prepared and eager for the upcoming school year which has brought immense joy to her and her parents.
The Math Astronaut is an exceptional recommendation! She helps students develop self-assurance and abilities while establishing a remarkable rapport with them. Laila's services are unparalleled; she supports her students, maintains a steady flow of communication with the parents, and provides resources when necessary. We will undoubtedly return for more assistance!

For a considerable time now, my daughter has lacked confidence in Math. As her parents, we have dedicated numerous hours towards assisting her in grasping math concepts and building up her self-assurance. We explored options for a math tutor, and after conversing with Laila, were convinced that she possessed the expertise, professionalism, and affable manner we were looking for.
Laila worked with our daughter during the latter half of her seventh-grade school year and had a significant impact on her. Thanks to Laila's patience and understanding, our daughter's confidence in math improved significantly, and she began actively participating in class discussions instead of staying silent. Our daughter's math grades on assessments have transformed from mediocre to excellent, and her self-confidence has flourished in all subjects. Laila takes care to understand her students' interests and hobbies and uses them to engage with math concepts creatively.
Laila made a point of developing a relationship with us, the parents, and would communicate with us after every coaching session. Her dedication to her students and their families' success was remarkable. We are incredibly grateful for Laila's time and effort in helping our daughter succeed as a student. She ended her seventh-grade school year with all A's and only one B – an outstanding accomplishment. Her guidance and encouragement have been invaluable to us and our daughter. Thank you, Laila, for your hard work, professionalism, and terrific results!

On March 12, 2022, I, Bryan Benton, express my utmost gratitude and appreciation for my math coach, Laila Rahmatian, who helped me pass the math portion of the General Knowledge Test required for my certification as a Leadership Instructor at a Military middle school in Jacksonville, Florida. Having spent most of my career in the pharmaceutical and diagnostic industry, I needed someone I could trust and connect with to help me pass the math test, which I had not studied in decades.
After a thorough search for a professional and experienced math tutor, I came across Laila's contact information, and I was impressed by her follow-up and genuine interest in understanding my needs. Working with her for approximately 15 weeks, I can attest to her exceptional coaching skills and dedication to my success.
Throughout our coaching sessions, Laila demonstrated remarkable qualities that set her apart from other tutors. She was always on-time, well-prepared, and assessed my proficiency level, making our lessons more efficient and effective. Laila also set short-term benchmarks to gauge my progress and provided homework and practice tests, which she reviewed with me, step-by-step, to identify my mistakes and thought process.
Furthermore, Laila's ability to remain focused on the objectives and timeline while being flexible and available for extra review sessions truly helped me pass my test several months earlier than expected. She helped me understand complex concepts, such as PEMDAS, SLOPE-INTERCEPT, and FUNCTIONS, in a fun and engaging manner, which boosted my confidence and motivation. I even started helping my 7th-grade students with their homework, thanks to Laila's teaching style.
Notably, Laila went beyond being just a tutor; she became a personal partner who cared about my progress and well-being. Her investment in my success instilled a sense of accountability and dedication that I will always appreciate. Passing the test was not just my accomplishment, but ours, and I could not have done it without Laila's wisdom and skills.
In conclusion, I highly recommend Laila Rahmatian to anyone seeking a true professional and dedicated math coach who genuinely cares about their success. Give her an opportunity to help you, and you will not only pass your test but also gain valuable knowledge and confidence. Thank you, Laila, for everything.
Sincerely,
Bryan Benton

As a sophomore, I must confess that the beginning was quite challenging. As a freshman last year, algebra and math, in general, were not my forte. The frustration I felt was profound. It got to a point where I was disappointed with myself for being unable to comprehend the subject matter. Initially, I was uncertain about getting a math tutor. The thought of it not being helpful, or worst still, leaving me stranded was unsettling. However, after meeting with Laila, my perspective changed. We started with the basics, and although I felt embarrassed at first, it was worth it. Laila was patient, friendly, kind-hearted, and attentive. She is hands down the best tutor I could have ever asked for, and I highly recommend her to anyone struggling with math. She taught me the importance of asking questions, irrespective of how strange or embarrassing they may seem. I am immensely grateful to you, Laila, for everything you have done.
