Sarah really improved my 10th grade son's English essay writing skills with a methodical, supportive and encouraging style. She also went over SAT writing/reading material to make it understandable and engaging for him. Patient and practical, Sarah is an excellent teacher with outstanding expertise. She boosted my son's self-confidence in writing and I would highly recommend her as a tutor for any student.
Desh B.

Barbara prepared for my son's sessions diligently. She focused on his weak spots and then designed tutoring materials to help him improve. His SAT Writing Scores increased by 100 points and we expect even better results next time. My son and I both highly recommend Barbara as a tutor.
Dan C.

Tony went over strategies for the SAT writing prompt including taking a few minutes to brainstorm and make a brief outline. Then he gave a sample prompt to work through. Very helpful!
