Aditya K.

7 lessons

Furthermore, he is very patient and will explain a concept multiple times until you understand it. His method of going through practice problems together helped me a lot as it was great practice with a knowledgeable tutor to answer questions and explain problems. Finally, communication with Joseph has been very clear and I have not had any issues with scheduling. I would definitely recommend Joseph M. as a tutor for ACT English!
Gustav T.

10 lessons

Megan has the skills to drive the student engagement needed. After just 10 weeks of 2 times a week tutoring my son's ACT English score increased from a 22 to a 29 bringing his ACT super score to 31! As important, he now understands grammar rules he did not learn in high school. Our only regret is we did not find Megan sooner as with more time we are certain his score would have been even greater... If reading this review your search is completed - Good luck!
Kaitlin T.

5 lessons

Thanks so much! 11/11/14 - One last update! Erin taught my daughter a lot of strategies in the 10 or so hours they worked together. Kaitlin was able to raise her English score by 11 points, which is incredible, and she was able to achieve the composite score she had as a goal for herself. Eleven points!!! That's incredible! All the time the spent together was spent efficiently and well worth every penny. Thanks, Erin!
