Carol J.

13 Writing lessons

I believe she is motivated to so out of her passion for writing and teaching. As a result, the outcome is very encouraging - I was immensely proud when comparing the essay I wrote at session zero side by side with the one I wrote after session six. It was a huge difference! Thanks for your attention. This is the longest review I’ve ever posted, which probably demonstrates that I don’t hate writing as much anymore.
Donna W.

19 Writing lessons

She will check his reading comprehension, improve his writing structures to be more concise and ask him questions if the sentences are not clear as they both edit and revise together. After 1 month, he has improved his writing from about 6 sentences to 1 to 1.5 page length with a good flow and he is becoming less reliant on Laurie. Laurie will continue to work with Ivan in his writing for higher writing level. Laurie is a highly experienced tutor and I would recommend anyone to her.
Monica C.

Lisa is the best CBEST writing tutor. I highly recommend her to anyone taking this exam or that wants to sharpen their critical thinking and writing skills. I had a difficult time passing the writing section, and tutoring with her changed everything. She is patient, kind, knowledgeable, supportive, and has a great sense of humor. She helped me with improving my writing skills in finding what part of the essay requirements were missing.
