Excellent tutor

Lori has been incredibly helpful to me in my law and business class. She explains concepts very clearly and provides great examples to help contextualise things. She helped me very much with a writing assignment. Lori spent time discussing my essay plan with me, provided guidance on structure, and made very helpful content related suggestions. Thank you Lori!

Patient and Focused

I had my first lesson. I am new to this type of tutorial application and I came with anxiety!😂. Lori was patient and kind. My first interaction was more than I hoped for. Lori is knowledgeable and we set expectations for future lessons. I look forward to our next lesson.

Knowledgable, patient, personable, and impactful tutor!

I have been meeting with Lori every week since the beginning of this semester. I initially hired her for my Business Law class, but have found her to be helpful in many other areas as well. Lori has a unique background making her a reliable resource in many business-related courses as well as an amazing guide for writing in any subject. She is extremely personable and I appreciate the way she explains complex topics and connects them to experiences in my life. I have definitely made notice of Lori's impact on my grades and looking forward to having her around for any future courses she may help me with.

Amazing tutor. Lori is a life saver!

Lori has been helping me throughout the entirety of my paralegal program. She has been patient with me as I have struggled through some of the more complex assignments. She is extremely attentive and genuinely cares about the needs and well being of her students. Lori will go above and beyond to make sure you understand every aspect of what you are learning. Whenever she reviewed an assignment of mine her comments were always extremely helpful and not only helped improved my grades but gave me confidence in understanding the work myself. I highly recommend Lori as a tutor for anyone studying in the field of law.

Outstanding Tutor

Lori has been tutoring me in Project Management (Masters program). Since PM is a completely different field from my academic/career background (Political Science & Law), I found that I needed help with a lot of my assignments that require a more technical approach and visual presentations. Lori has been a tremendous help with all of the new material and required software. Because of her, I've been getting straight A's in all of my classes (which I probably couldn't have even passed on my own). Very lucky I found her!!!

Knows exactly what I need

I’ve worked with Lori for a little while now and she’s been one of the only tutors on Wyzant who really knows my abilities and is able to tailor my needs to any project we work on. Lori is honest and realistic. Highly recommend her!!

Helpful and patient

I am a law student and I needed help with drafting a flat fee limited scope engagement agreement. Lori showed me a strategy how to approach this type of assignment and how to analyze each part of it in order to faster writing.

JOANNA, 1 lesson with Lori

Knowledgeable, Patient and very friendly to talk to!

I needed to work on my resume and was looking for someone who would understand my experience of Project management and could guide me articulating my experience better. I sought out those skills when I chose Lori. She provided great feedback on my current resume and I was able to talk through different ways of presenting my skills. We connected so well and she was very knowledgeable and patient. Definitely will reach out to her if I need more help. Thanks.

Resume

Lori was quick, easy to talk to, and helped me turn a very convoluted mess into a competitive and straight to the point resume. I highly recommend her if you need help in amplifying your resume for future career opportunities or need advice about general careers.
