Larry B.

34 ACT lessons

I did not need anyone else to look over it because I was so confident with my essays after our revisions. Aside from being an astounding tutor, Carolyn is also an extremely supportive person. Carolyn has always been there for me whenever I am struggling on something with ACT prep, college apps, or anything with that is stressing me out, I always knew she would help me through it. I honestly do not think I would have made it through college apps or the ACT without her.
Meagan G.

15 ACT lessons

I decided to try Tristan at Wyzant as a last resort for getting my ACT score up. Since working with Tristan, I am actually excited about taking my ACT. I feel more comfortable with the format of the test and have gained a lot of confidence. Tristan is a great tutor. He is very knowledgeable and is able to break things down for me so that I can see the steps and actually learn. He is also very patient with me and a great motivator.
Steven S.

6 ACT lessons

I was very pleased with the help Paul gave my son. He first helped my son review math for the ACT test which my son was taking for the second time. My son improved his ACT score and needed help in his regular classes so Paul also helped him write a paper and math homework for the rest of his senior year. Paul always responded to calls and emails and was usually able to work Steven in even when I called at the last minute. I highly recommend Paul.
