Mr. Zavlek is an extraordinary teacher. He has helped my son to learn class work and help other students with their homework. Mr. Zavlek is very patient and teaches my son not to be afraid of classwork and that it can be easy and fun.
The principal of Ridge St. should be proud to have Mr. Zavlek as a teacher and should commend him for the wonderful work he does.
