Megan T.

8 ACT lessons

We found Joyce while looking for a Physics tutor; it turned out that she is also a great ACT tutor. We wish that we had found her sooner.

Kyle P.

6 ACT lessons

I was even able to observe during the lessons by logging into the Skype session. After observing one session I was very comfortable that David would be a good fit for us. Our son has taken the ACT test 2x, once without any real test prep, and once after working with David. He had just 6 sessions with David over a number of weeks leading up to the ACT test. In this short amount of time he increased his ACT English score by 4 points and his science by 5.

Judy D.

9 ACT lessons

She also recommended that the ACT may be a better test for specific learning style and after taking a practice test and working through the practice booklet he felt much more at ease taking the ACT. Ashley was also very versatile about working with our sport, academic, and work schedule. I highly recommend her, my son felt very comfortable with her, and she never made him feel stupid or ignorant for asking a question or not understanding a section.
