Success on standardized tests comes when students get used to answering the different types of test questions by completing practice tests with an experienced tutor who can explain how to read passages and narrow down answer choices. I also patiently help students with homework assignments and how to write quality essays.

Very patient and knowledgeable tutor

Anne taught me a variety of different skills needed to take the GRE. We went over verbal and quantitative strategies. For example, for verbal we focused on word structures and breaking down sentences to understand the meaning of them. She gave me a handful of vocabulary words that were going to be on the GRE. She is very knowledgeable in quantitative. We went over lots of equations, special right triangles, slope of the line, circumference, and many many other tools needed to succeed on the test. She helped me remember a lot of math concepts I forgot about since highschool. Anne was always very flexible with the schedule and was available when I needed her. She was always on time for online meetings, patient and encouraging! Highly recommend :)
