Don's ability to recognize patterns of weakness, coach my son on how to improve them, recommend material for him to read, test him again, and advise him on what he missed had great impact on the ACT score and has helped him in other ways too. Here are a list of noticeable improvements:1. On ACT English, Don helped my son have a better understanding of grammar and punctuation, while he helped him figure out how to decrease making incorrect decisions.
Polina S.

1 lesson

I had several questions about ACT English section, and Jeffrey helped me a lot to understand some subtle details I didn't pay attention to. We went over couple of passages; Jeffrey suggested some creative solutions for questions I had most difficulties with. For example, the tutor gave me an advice to treat 'adding sentences' tasks like a lawyer! For other questions, Jeffrey shared some actual grammar rules. Anyway, at the end I was getting a 100% on my passages.
