Nancy S. from Hyde Park, NY
We hired Sarah to help our son, who is in 8th grade, to prepare for language arts portion of the SSAT test. Sarah is an excellent tutor. She is very patient and encouraging. My son has improved his reading comprehension and vocabulary as a result of working with Sarah. She is always prepared, extremely responsive, flexible and punctual. I highly recommend Sarah.
Abe H. from Poughkeepsie, NY
I just started working with Sara and she has been great. She has been helping me prepare for the SAT. She goes through every question and knows exactly what she is doing. Sara is great because she has a very flexible schedule to fit your needs. I see some improvement already and I am very happy she is helping me prepare for the test. I would recommend her to anyone that is preparing for the SAT!
William T. from Wappingers Falls, NY
If I had posted all the requirements I wanted had for a great tutor Sarah's picture would have come up. How lucky we were to find her on the WyzAnt web site. I can see great changes in my daughter's grasp of the subject and it's all because of how Sarah's recognized the problems and addressed all of them during their time together.
Sufyanah M. from Newburgh, NY
Sara is fantastic. She is a very dedicated and caring educator and has helped my son so much to improve in his school work as well as the SAT. I hired her to prep him for his SAT. She was so fantastic that I have kept her on to tutor him for his entire senior year. I totally recommend her.
Peter G. from Goshen, NY
I have to say, after bringing in several tutors to help our son, Sarah was a breath of fresh air. She was always punctual and was able to break down all the study material and aid not only in general knowledge but also in test taking techniques. I would definitely recommend Sarah to any student that is preparing for the SAT/ACT tests.
Olga K. from Cortlandt Manor, NY
My daughter loves classes with Sarah. They work on reading comprehension, expanding vocabulary, and critical thinking. Sarah's classes are fun and dynamic. Great tutor overall.
Katharine R. from Poughkeepsie, NY
Sheridan has had issues coming up with thesis for essay in school. Sarah was very helpful in helping Sheridan understand what that is which will be critical in her doing well with SSAT and in writing argumentative essays in school.
Nafeeza A. from New Windsor, NY
Sarah listened to my request of what my daughter needed to work on and printed worksheets relating to those areas. My daughter felt comfortable with her.
Stacey M. from Wappingers Falls, NY
Sarah was prepared. She was able to hone in and focus on the areas critical to our student's learning and preparation.
