My son has only had 3 sessions with Arlene but feels that she has provided very useful strategies for the SAT's.

Arlene R. provided SAT reading, vocabulary and writing review for my daughter. She covered essay responses and ways to improve and expand upon the essays. The lessons also included vocabulary lists with words grouped according to negative and positive meanings and also words presented in groups of opposite meanings. She purchased an SAT Critical Reading workbook for my daughter and focused on strategies and clues for answering specific types of questions: sentence completion, reading passages and grammar and usage. Also, sentence completion practice sets were used for explanations and specific practice in selecting the correct response. Arlene's sessions were always very thorough and she exhibited patience and understanding when working with my daughter. She is clearly very knowledgeable of the SAT test and format.
