Student & Parent Testimonials
Irina Ryland is a supportive and engaging writing teacher. Our middle-school daughter noticeably improved her writing skills, thanks to Mrs. Ryland’s thoughtful critique and encouragement. She looked forward to her class each week and enjoyed the assignments.
I’ve learned so much this year and I know a lot more about writing after being in this class. Thank you so much for being an awesome teacher!
My daughter had the privilege of being a student of Ms. Ryland’s for two consecutive years. Ms. Ryland is a committed educator to her students, families and the content covered. Not only did my daughter excel in her studies, but she also formed a wonderful relationship with Ms. Ryland. Ms. Ryland found the best ways to support my daughter’s learning styles, while building confidence in her. We highly recommend participation in a class with Ms. Ryland, you will not be disappointed!
