Michael is a great tutor. He is very patient and takes time to explain techniques and concepts very well. He was able to help my son with his ACT Reading, ACT English, SAT Reading, and SAT writing. The techniques Michael taught my son worked very well as his ACT English and ACT Reading scores went up by 25%. I am still waiting for his SAT scores. If you are looking for help with ACT and SAT tests, then Michael is the perfect tutor for you.
