Dickson is always very insightful! I learn a lot from him every session. By applying his strategies and tips regarding reading and writing skills, I find myself understanding texts and words far better than before! I am so thankful for your guidance and motivation, Dickson!!

It is always illuminating to observe and listen to Dickson's thought process. He is always very thorough with his explanations!! He encourages us to seek and define the relationships between words and sentences within a text, which is such a valuable skill to hone!! Thank you for all your guidance and love for language!!
