Personable English PhD Tutor with Test Prep Panache
Good question! Working with a tutor with whom you feel at ease, whether online or in person, can make a massive difference in your growth in appropriate skills, mindset, confidence, and even enjoyment of this challenging English ACT (and or Essay portion of the ACT) test. Meeting a tutor online is similar to (yet possibly even better than) in-person tutoring, in that trust is something generally built up over time. Once that clear working relationship with your tutor exists, the aids provided by Wyzant, Google Suite, and curriculum common to your tutor and you all vastly enhance your virtual meetings. The bottom line is the skills needed for the English ACT test are limited in its being a standardized test; thus they are patterned and learnable. If you're referring to the written/essay portion of the ACT, the same applies. Once you understand the context of the essay, writing it well is a skill and craft at which you can grow quickly with exciting, clear results. Working online is also less distracting and typically more flexible than in-person meetings, which helps optimize your ability to focus. I hope this answers your question! I would be honored to partner with you in reaching and exceeding your goals! :)
