Katie was a joy to work with. I sat and listened intently as she reviewed Geometry with my daughter. She really knew her subject well. The most important thing was she recognized what was going on with my daughter. It was test anxiety. Katie gave her some tips verbally check her work so she could have confidence in her answers and not over think the problem.

She is also very knowledgeable about the SAT and how it is graded, which is evident in her tutoring style. In terms of writing, her brainstorming technique is superb and efficient. I think my favorite attribute of hers is her ability to explain grammar rules in an universally understandable manner." We are very happy to have met Deborah and thankful for her willingness to help our kids.
