Michael is a great tutor. He is very patient and takes time to explain techniques and concepts very well. He was able to help my son with his ACT Reading, ACT English, SAT Reading, and SAT writing. The techniques Michael taught my son worked very well as his ACT English and ACT Reading scores went up by 25%. I am still waiting for his SAT scores. If you are looking for help with ACT and SAT tests, then Michael is the perfect tutor for you.

With only five lessons, Anna helped my daughter raise her ACT Reading score from 28 to 33, bringing it on par with other subjects. Anna is a patient and thoughtful tutor, who tailored the lessons to our needs. My daughter felt comfortable and was looking forward to the lessons.

In such a short time, and with such little room for improvement, Patrick still managed to boost my overall test taking skills. In addition to his competence as a tutor, Patrick is also an efficient and easy-going person who wastes no time during a session and who you will find very easy to talk to. I couldn't ask for a better tutor! During today's ACT, I finished every section with sufficient time left, and I am confident in my essay under the new format. I will update the review once the scores come out.
