English, Writing, SAT, and Reading Tutor

I have a B.S. in Education and a Master's degree in English. I am a National Board Certified Teacher. I've started successful SAT programs at two of my former high schools.

When I reviewed Linda's profile on WyzAnt, I said she should be the right tutor for me. My subject was not just a regular English, but it was academic English. I had to pass either the TOEFL or the IELTS with a good score to resume my carrier in the AVMA ( The American Veterinary Medical Association). My challenging aspect was the speaking section. But Linda helped me a lot to be prepared. She focused on my weak points and gave me specific advice to help improve my speaking ability. I passed my IELTS test with good scores. Overall I was glad to choose her over any other tutor.

Patient, positive reinforcement. Each lesson is very individualized in spending time on what my son is struggling on. He feels she is very informed on the test ins and outs! Helping greatly with the strategy. Again, Linda has connected with my son and had made him feel very prepared and positive toward the SAT testing. He feels that he has made great strides in being able understanding how to handle each section of the test. She has been able to help him with his grammar section which has always been a problem for him in testing. I feel I could have not made a better choice for a tutor.
