Michael K. from Bloomfield Hills, MI
Maureen M. was a very friendly Reading and English tutor. She helped me bump up my ACT scores by a couple points in English and 7 in Reading. I would recommend Maureen to my fellow peers, as she was very helpful.
Sharon C. from Oakland, MI
Maureen tutored my daughter for the English part of the ACT test. Maureen was an excellent tutor. My daughter's English score on the ACT increased 5 points, she increased from a 23 to a 28. Maureen far exceeded our expectations. In addition to being an excellent tutor, Maureen was very willing to work with our hectic schedule. She was flexible on the days and times for tutoring.
Brigitte F. from Rochester, MI
The English lessons with Maureen have been very helpful to practice conversation. We met 11 times, and every session was interesting. We talked about many different subjects, especially about current events, people and cities in the State of Michigan. I hadn't had the chance to travel in Michigan, because of my work, but Maureen told me so much that I have already in my mind where I will go to visit next time. She brought me grammar lessons, essays, maps, and a picture book about Michigan history. I read aloud from my own Moon traveler guide, magazines and newspapers, and we talked in English about many topics. If you are interested to meet a great tutor and to learn about many subjects and to learn to speak English, contact Maureen.
Anita C. from Southfield, MI
Maureen assisted me a couple months back with a Master’s upper level class. Because I chose to take the class in an accelerated method, it called for someone with expertise in the subject (Research Analysis and Literature Writing) and Maureen was the perfect fit. From the start she was focused, consistent, and followed up to ensure my understanding and progress of the coursework were accelerating in a positive direction. My experience with her was A+ and she is highly recommended if you looking for someone who is knowledgeable, patient, and will care about your understanding and success in the subject you are studying.
Avi R. from Royal Oak, MI
Maureen did a great job working with me to write my medical school application. She was thorough, professional, and worked tirelessly to ensure that I met the deadline. I would recommend her to anyone seeking assistance with college applications or writing of any sort.
Monica F. from Warren, MI
I would highly recommend Maureen for your tutor. She is always on time, very compassionate, and patient. She really took her time and showed she cared as she helped my daughter, who struggles with writing, write a research paper.
Vincent M. from Southfield, MI
Amazing, the success of my projects. I was in need of some copyediting and proofreading for my scientific papers and found someone with a strong syntax and grammar background. I am impressed with the important contribution that was made by Maureen. She was very knowledgeable and thoughtful. I appreciate the time and effort that was dedicated to my projects. I offer my compliments for a job very well done!

Maureen helped me find my weak points in grammar and punctuation. She helped me find the things I needed to work on. Now we are working to strengthen these weak points, so I will understand what is correct, and incorrect grammar.
