Beth R. from Wynnewood, PA
Elizabeth was extremely knowledgeable about what was needed for my daughter to increase her Reading and Writing SAT score. She provided tips and recommendations that were useful and right on target. She was extremely patient and took the time to explain and provide examples of test situations and then worked with my daughter step by step to provide her with the tools that she needed to get to the next testing level. Her teaching style was not overwhelming which was perfect to defuse the stress that SAT's can bring to students. I highly recommend her and wish we had used her from the beginning.

Elizabeth was a great tutor. She taught me exactly what I needed to do to accomplish my goal for writing a good essay for my GRE Argument exam. She was very knowledgeable and great to work with. I would definitely call her again in the future if I ever needed help with any other type of writing assignments.

She helped my daughter with her paragraph transitions, thesis statement, being more specific and informed her about helpful websites for enriching homework reading. My daughter felt she explained things in a way my daughter could understand, was friendly, and was patient with her.
