English, SAT, TOEFL, Reading, Writing, College Counseling, Chinese
One of my specialties is teaching English language skills, to both native and non-native speakers of English. I am able to tailor TOEFL and SAT Reading/Writing prep sessions to accommodate each learner’s strengths and weaknesses. I have helped high school and college students with their strategies and application materials for university admissions. Because I have written professionally for many years, I am able to help students find their "voice" for personal statements and other admissions...

I'm very grateful to have Susan to teach me. I just finished my first session with her and i already can't wait to see her again next week. She is extremely knowledgeable, personable and fun to work with. She is simply the best. I'm a foreign professional and was looking for someone to help me with my English speaking, reading and writing skills. She was stunning and totally exceeded my expectation. She is attentive, patient and seems to know exactly what my needs are. She is passionate about teaching and her animation and enthusiasm is contagious. I never knew learning English could be this fun. In order for me to understand the subject matters we were discussing she would find extra materials for me to read and thoroughly explain them to me until I understood. By the way, she speaks perfect Chinese. I was astonished when she started to speak Chinese with me. I thought I was talking to a native Chinese speaker.

Susan is a great tutor: friendly, flexible and very professional. She has been very important in helping me to address a more natural and fluent English, grasping better grammar, pronunciation and presentation skills. Because she has a background in business and in executive positions, I feel that she understands very well my needs as a foreign professional in the country, and seeks to be a coach more than a tutor, working in improving my confidence. She is also very interested in accompanying my progress outside the class, which allows us to engage in real and insightful conversations (commonly followed by many corrections). Her feedback, even if tough, is always clear and constructive. Susan is really a tutor who I can count on.

I have worked with Susan for the last 6 months and I have had the most satisfying experience. Susan is a tutor who masters her field. Her experience, knowledge, and professionalism allowed me to complete my writing project in a highly proficient way. Susan's teaching style helped me to improve my writing and to greatly enjoy my learning process. I definitely recommend anyone who wants to improve his/her English skills to work with Susan.
Vasanthakumari R. from North Brunswick, NJ
Our daughter who is 5th grade has now worked with Ms.Susan for 1+ years for Language Arts. Goal was to challenge our daughter in writing and at the same time improve writing skills. Ms.Susan was a perfect fit for her. She worked with our daughter once a week and she did a fantastic job. Every week she would come up with a list of suggested reading books for our daughter, teach her techniques to improve her writing skills and challenge her in writing. Susan is really to the point. She is extremely resourceful, focuses on each student's abilities and their needy areas. I would refer her without any hesitation.

It was our pleasure to have Susan to teach my daughter last few months. She is such a great teacher with love and patience. I have never met a teacher who loves teaching with full of energy and encourage student all the time like Susan. Being a teacher or parent, we always want our kids to learn 'How' to deal with the problem instead of giving them the 'Answers' directly. I am very happy that my daughter has learned all these skills to know how to prepare her SAT test after these few months practicing on her SAT classes. So, all I want to say is to thank Susan for her patience to be with my daughter. You are the best, Susan!

Susan helped me to improve my reading and speaking English skills. She is very professional, friendly, reliable, punctual, patient, and always corrects all my mistakes. I would recommend Susan to other students who want to learn English as their second language.
