Marge is a careful and skillful proofreader with extensive knowledge of the English language and grammar rules. She worked quickly, read thoroughly, and was available for questions after she returned my work to me. She was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend for big and small proofreading work.
Lydia S. from Long Beach, CA
Very patient and helpful tutor who help me focus on my strengths. She reassured me that I had the skills, just not the positive mindset on passing the CBEST. On our first meeting, Margaret handed me a few handouts on formal essay writing and made sure I understood the structure of time writing. Her suggestions were helpful and I passed my exam.

Margaret is a very knowledgeable and experienced ESL teacher. She is responsible and took her job seriously. All my questions are answered. Sometimes, she had to do some research and provided the answer on the next meeting. I will definitely contact her again if I have to write reports for my work in the future.

I chose Maggie as my tutor because she has knowledge and experience, but what really makes her an excellent tutor is that she prepares every class according to what I want and need to grow as a professional. She not only cares about me as a student, but she truly cares about me as a person. She is not only my tutor, she is my friend.

Marge was fantastic on reviewing my statement of purpose for grad schools. Not only she took the time to correct my errors, and also made sure that the sentences expressed my thoughts accurately. In her follow up email, she included a summary of our discussions, skills need to be improved and recommendations. She was extremely fair and really cares about my writing skills. I highly recommend her to be your tutor!
