Corey C.

12 lessons

She was able to motivate my son who was really very down about his writing skills and doubtful of his ability to make any meaningful improvement in such a short time. He is now engaged in active reading in his spare time and has dramatically improved his writing. What I truly love most about her is her genuine love and commitment for helping young people reach their ACT Reading/Writing goals and to encourage scholarly behavior overall.
Norman H.

22 lessons

I appreciate all that she has done for me. I honestly cannot thank her enough for helping me get into one of my top choice universities. She is a invaluable resource to have, and without her I do not know where I would be today. Not only is she great with college essays, but also for ACT preparation and AP Language/Literature help. ACT reading/writing is challenging. She told me strategies and tricks to do during test.
Jackie B.

52 lessons

We are very pleased with his scores in critical reading and writing in both of these tests as compared to the scores he received from his PSAT. He received a score of 34 in ACT reading and 720 in SAT critical reading. He will be taking the SAT the second time this October and we are confident that his scores will improve even more. She is now counseling him on college choices and applications. She always keeps us informed on Jonathan's progress.
