Our "who" & "why”

She’s a bit of a smarty-pants, really. After working as a school psychologist for over a decade, Laura founded Progress Parade to complement her celebrated team at Chicago Home Tutor.

Testimonials

“Everything changed for us! We are so grateful for our son’s tutor who helped him realize he was smart! She is very resourceful, patient and kind.

Our son caught up 2 grades in math within 8 months. The results go beyond academics, Progress Parade helped him build self esteem and he slowly started to make friends, then speak in public, do sports, and even lose weight. He is a HAPPY boy!”

— Barbara Deck, parent

“When COVID-19 forced our daughter's school to close we were able to instantly transition to online video tutoring sessions, which have been every bit as effective as the in-person sessions.

Given all of the disruption caused by the pandemic, it's been so nice to provide our daughter some educational continuity and it's wonderful to see her continue to make excellent progress even under these challenging circumstances. We couldn't be more pleased with Progress Parade!”

— Penny Visser, parent
