LM is a 25 year-old young lady who has been attending our tutoring program in person. LM did not take to virtual learning, and her parents were excited to return to the playhouse. Her parents are delighted at the progress she has made during the summer with her volunteer tutor. LM attends a day program in her hometown; and one day when her dad went to collect her, she had a piece of paper. Dad inquired what was on the paper. They informed him that LM had sat there and had written a list of her favorite shows all by herself – brilliant job! Before the summer, she had no interest in writing, and her family found it hard to encourage her to practice – now she writes her name whenever she gets a chance! Dad commented that her tutor was able to unlock something within LM which encouraged her to try, and she certainly achieved her best of all this summer!
