If you need help with writing, English grammar and all that goes into making you a standout in your classes then I am the tutor you want to know. My specialty is grammar sentence structure and writing for effect. I have many years of experience helping students put their best English face forward.
I taught Junior High Language Arts/Speech and Drama for 20+ years and coached High School Speech Team for the same time frame. At the last high school where I worked I taught Freshman English/Study Skills/Speech/Theatre Arts and ACT Prep Reading and English. I also tutored Reading Comprehension in a one-on-one program for students who were not reading at grade level.

Not an ACT Expert

I assumed that when I requested an ACT tutor for my daughter the tutor would have some knowledge of the test format and content. It was obvious to my daughter that the tutor had no knowledge of the test when she proceeded to ask questions regarding the "history section" of the test and if my daughter's score was good. There is no history section on the ACT test. I could not recommend this tutor for anyone looking for specific coaching on the ACT or SAT.
