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!

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!
