We used her as a psat tutor. She was not helpful and appeared disorganized. she really didn't have a plan in place.

Colleen is caring, responsive, welcoming and effective. I enjoyed working with her as I prepared for my SATs. She will make you feel "comfortable" as you go through the learning process. And the best part was that my scores improved!

I am studying for the GMAT. Colleen is patient, positive and loves math. The excitement helps keep class interesting.

Colleen was an absolute lifesaver. After struggling for months to pass the Praxis 5031 math subtest, I finally found Colleen. She reviewed the basics with me and made sure I had a strong foundation before taking the test. She always came to our meeting prepared with practice questions and homework assignments for me. Colleen helped me increase my score by 29 points!! She is the best tutor I have ever worked with and I would HIGHLY recommend her.

Colleen was a great tutor who helped me pass the praxis exam required to become a teacher. Math was always a subject that gave me trouble. Colleen helped me review the basics and gave me the tools to help with problems I was having.

I highly recommend WyzAnt Tutoring and, especially, my tutor, Colleen McGrath, who was an awesome tutor!. One of the areas Colleen specializes in is test preparation including the ASVAB exam, which is the test needed for Military Service. She dedicated herself to understanding what was required for the test and even took it upon herself to place calls to a few Coast Guard recruiting sites to ensure what score I would need to pass the test, which impressed me tremendously. Additionally, she recognized quickly that I am a visual learner. Suddenly, I began grasping mathematical concepts quickly and started to not only excel at math but truly enjoy it! We also worked on vocabulary, reading comprehension and critical reasoning. I took the test in April and scored very low. My parents suggested a tutor to help me prepare. A month and a half later - with Colleen's help and lots of hard work - I passed my test with more than 120% increase in my score! I was very happy with the outcome and my experience with this company. I would absolutely recommend WyzAnt and Colleen to anyone.

This past summer, Colleen, tutored our son in a number of business subjects, including SWOT and value chain analysis, accounting and business statistics. Colleen succeeded in motivating our son not only to complete his assignments, but to do more work than the minimum required. She was a knowledgeable, enthusiastic teacher. I was particularly impressed with the amount of work she did prior to each session in preparing his lessons and the interest she had in his success. I strongly recommend Colleen as a tutor.
