What people are saying about Keen Minds
"Vicki is more than just a tutor - she is a support to both my son and myself. She sets out achievable goals, focusing on the accomplishments that my son can reach. Vicki is very knowledgeable and has the education to back up her skills. Yet it is her laughter and smile is what makes me thankful that she is a part of my son's support system. My son struggles with executive functioning skills, and has learning disabilities, school is hard for him and tutoring is not exciting for any child at any age, but when he knows Vicki is coming, he is ready to learn. A blessing for this mom. Both my son and I are very fortunate to have Vicki as a support."
"We cannot say enough good things about Vicki Keen and Keen Minds! She has been absolutely wonderful in providing literacy support for our two children. Vicki has an amazing personality—she's patient, kind, and full of energy—which makes learning fun and engaging.
Our children look forward to their sessions with her, and we've already seen a noticeable difference in their skills and confidence. Vicki has a special way of connecting with kids and tailoring her teaching to their unique needs, which has made such a positive impact on their learning journey.
Thank you, Vicki, for the incredible work you do. You're truly making a difference in our children's lives!"
"We are so happy with the sessions we have had with Vicki. Not only does she make it fun and engaging but she makes my son feel so comfortable and accomplished. He said to me that we can do more tutoring with her and that’s big! Thank you."
"Vicki with Keen Minds is amazing. My son was hesitant at first to work with someone on his literacy. Vicki was fun and engaged him right away. He now looks forward to his sessions with her. I have seen improvements in his confidence with reading and writing and he is now more receptive and often asks for feedback from others to help him continue to improve. I look forward seeing the continued growth in my son and would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!"
"All amazing! My son absolutely loves Miss Vicki and is engaged the whole time. We began to see an improvement in his reading and confidence after only a few visits."
"Vicki is amazing! As a retired teacher who had the honour of seeing Vicki in action, I highly recommend!!"
