Maureen was flexible about finding times to work around his after-school activities and worked with him for three sessions, focusing specifically on writing strategies. He took the test a second time and his writing score increased by 80 points! We're grateful that she was available to target one specific area in a short period of time, and help him make a significant improvement in his writing score.

19 Writing lessons

Simply put, Alan is an outstanding tutor. He has been working with one of our team members for the last several months and the results we’ve seen have been nothing short of astounding. In a relatively short period of time, our team member’s writing has improved tenfold, and they are now able to catch themselves before returning to their “old way” of writing. Where writing was choppy and disjointed, it now flows seamlessly and is concise without being curt.

8 Writing lessons

She is really personable and down to earth. She really takes the time to know and understand her clients. I originally sought out a writing tutor because I thought I was a bad writer. After a few sessions with Karen, I realized that I am not a bad writer. Rather, I am still adjusting to academic writing and need more effective preparation techniques for writing (e.g. outlines, time management regarding drafts, and etc.)
