Anne helped my son with his SAT prep, and helped with tips as well as day to day studying between the first time he took the SAT test and second test. We definitely give Anne credit for helping Bryce increase his SAT score by 260 points on the second test. Thanks again.

Dr. V. definitely improved the way I work through SAT reading sections. His methods of "chunking" and "working in a circle" have allowed me to breeze through a reading section with ease. Also, he helped me with SAT vocabulary by working through each vocabulary question together. Along with SAT prep, he is a great mentor for improving writing skills.
