really amazing

We sent a practice test and she reviewed and gave great comments and useful study tips! We will definitely be going back to her throughout the year for more APUSH support!

Joyce, 1 lesson with Sue

Great session with Sue!

We had a great session with Sue. She reviewed my daughter's DBQ for APUSH and gave her more clarity on the college board rubric, along with individualized strategies for specific improvement. She also gave her an organizational framework and some shorthand suggestions for how to more efficiently review and code the documents required. We will use her again for sure.

Alisa, 6 lessons with Sue

Knows her stuff, AND great connection with students!

We contacted Sue, and she accommodated our twin sophomores on short notice. She was well prepared for the session, having reviewed their work in advance. This allowed a very efficient and effective session where everyone got right to the key points (it was for a DBQ; Document-Based Question (essay). Sue knew the material and was able to ask the right questions to show how the boys could improve their essays. We highly recommend Sue!

Steve, 1 lesson with Sue

outstanding tutor

Sue helped my daughter with her AP US History summer homework. She was outstanding in all respects. I can highly recommended her.

Lindy, 6 lessons with Sue

Very patient and knowledgeable

We retained Sue to help our daughter dig deep in her understanding of Honors World History. It's her least favorite subject. Sue was able to help her focus on what she needed to know and made sure she understood in depth the subject matter. We are very happy with the results and plan on continuing with her throughout our daughters high school career.
