Knowledgable and insightful
With the help of my tutor, I delved into concepts that are imperative to know when writing a rhetorical analysis based on a text. Specifically, we examined the syntax and diction of the beginning of Martin Luther King Jr's "Letter From Birmingham Jail."

Great teacher very knowledgeable
I needed help with my course of AP language and Composition, particularlyin the rhetorical analysis section, and I found that Margret was a great help in boosting my score. She really makes sure that her students understand the content that is provided and she has helped me not only develop better essays but learn the mindset needed to write these essays.

My Daughter Got An "A"
Margaret was my daughters tutor for the spring semester 2020 in an English 112 class at Reynolds Community College. Margaret was very friendly and accommodating. Always available when we scheduled appointments. Very responsive when we texted and asked questions. My daughter got an “A” in the class and we were very happy. I would rate her at the highest level possible!!

Knows Her Stuff
Margaret made a subject that was very difficult for my son (senior in HS) very easy. She knew exactly the right questions to ask him that prompted the correct responses. She knew the material that they were studying. I would highly recommend Margaret as an English tutor.
