Yuanyang Z.

71 Grammar lessons

Steven recommended to me two great grammar textbooks. I learned all of the chapters in the two books from him and wrote essays to practice the knowledge that I learned from the books. In the beginning of the session, we could find many grammatical mistakes in my essays. After learning grammar, I now pay more attention to it when writing and speaking. Now, the number of mistakes in my essays has dropped a lot. By fixing my grammar mistakes, my oral English also has become much less confusing.

Sam W.

6 Grammar lessons

I saw John for six lessons. He basically helped me relearn grammar. I was preparing for the Hesi a2 exam and realized there is a whole section of grammar on the test. Since the rules of grammar are learned in grammar school, its easy to forget them. John was very patient and understanding. He wants you to understand the matter and do well in whatever you need to know the material for.

Maria G.

12 Grammar lessons

Donna is an amazing tutor and she helped me improve my grammar. She was so patient and kind to me when I didn't do so well at first. I learned more about grammar with Donna than I did in the past with other tutors who were not as patient like Donna was. I would recommend her as a grammar tutor for anyone who is struggling with their grammar.
