Jesse was an outstanding AP English Literature tutor for my son. Over the course of their sessions, my son made a lot of progress not only in organizing his essays, but in developing clearer, more thoughtful literary analysis. Jesse has a real gift for helping students structure their ideas and encouraging originality and depth. I would highly recommend Jesse to any student preparing for AP English Literature or looking to strengthen their writing and analytical skills.

Nancy is a great AP English tutor. She’s very knowledgeable and patient. My granddaughter enjoys working with her and looks forward to AP English class now.

Different types of essays that my school teacher barely discussed in school, a changed approach to MC questions with respect to the SAT questions. Before studying with Adam I was struggling to maintain my grades. His patience, down-to-earth explanations, clear logic and his emphasis on a coherent structure changed my experience, and as a bonus improved my SAT score. Thank you so much!
