Knowledgeable about web design

Excellent tutor. Vera is responsive and flexible. She has a good command of web design and Canva. I would recommend her.

Highly Recommended for SAT English Prep

Vera was quite good as an English SAT tutor for my son. She quickly and easily developed a rapport with him and then zero'd in on the areas that needed the most attention, in particular, critical reading and vocabulary. Vera is personable and flexible in terms of scheduling. I would recommend Vera without hesitation.
