Lisa jumped in and agreed to help my daughter prepare for a critical exam with a very limited amount of time for preparation. The exam is this Monday, and my daughter is much more confident than she was just over a week ago. Whatever the outcome, I am grateful for Lisa's test taking strategies and instruction. I wish I had reached out to her sooner, but never the less, I am keeping my fingers crossed. Thank you Lisa.

Lisa was a wonderful tutor. After listening to my needs, she developed a study plan which helped me pass my English Composition exam. Furthermore, she has a great passion for the subject, which helped me to enjoy it so very much.

My daughter is very happy to have met Ms. W. In just a few sessions, my daughter has felt motivated and inspired to see literature in a different way. She enjoyed the assignment and found out that Ms. W.'s help has made a huge difference. As a mom I deeply appreciate her enthusiasm and the intellectual encouragement she gives my daughter. Ms. W. is very reliable and we will continue to work with her.

The above words are but a few mere words that I think of when referring to my awesome SAT/ACT English tutor, LISA. Lisa was a wonderful teacher who was always on time, and with her bright personality and positive attitude, she made me want to work harder on my SAT and ACT English studies. Lisa inspired me to look at the SAT & ACT in an entirely different light. It was no longer “scary†and she made my experience enjoyable. She understood my busy theatre arts schedule and was able to adapt to the amount of time I had to work on certain aspects of my studies. Our discussions were always great and I'm in awe of her intellect! I would recommend Lisa to anyone looking for an amazing, happy & wonderful teacher. In my future academic endeavors, whenever needed and wherever possible, I will always return to Lisa! Namaste!

Lisa met with my son 2 times before his ACT test. He felt confident after the test with his understanding of the writing portion of the test. Lisa provided helpful hints on how to best answer the questions. We will definitely continue using Lisa.

She explains things well and also listens to the individual input from the student. She gave good advice on outside resources.

Lisa has helped me feel more confident about the ACT. After meeting with her once and trying a practice English test on my own I only missed 13 out of 75. She has taught me many strategies that I can use on the test. I am really glad I chose her!
