Knowledgeable and kind

The first session she explained what to expect that day taking the SAT focused on explaining how to manage my time when taking the test and some good pointers how to finish in the time frame given. Very kind, knowledgeable and patient.

Lisa, 4 lessons with Margaret

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Margaret M. was extremely helpful and patient. She taught me small tricks to remember during the exam. She was very thorough and took careful measure in helping me grasp a concept that I have forgotten. She really helped me think on how to come up with the answer and her encouraging conversations made me feel a lot better. Great tutor that helped me a lot on passing!
