Ruth has been working with my 11 year old son and 16 year old daughter since August 2013. They are meeting school and testing challenges much better. It's been an excellent experience; we're grateful.

Duke P. from Culpeper, VA

Ruth is an outstanding tutor. Extremely well organized, very enthusiastic, and has an excellent study plan for the SAT. We are very pleased with her!

Brenda G. from Ruckersville, VA

My daughter is learning a lot from Ruth. We are so glad that we got someone like Ruth who really understands geometry and how to teach it. Each time, my daughter feels she is grasping this difficult subject a little better.

Before I met with Ruth, I was having quite a bit of trouble in my environmental economics class. She was very patient and worked with me so I could better understand the mass of confusing information. I ended up doing well in the class after a very rocky start. 5 stars!

Hana S. from Herndon, VA

Ruth is a very patient and enthusiastic tutor. Her lessons are always very encouraging and inspiring! Every time after the session, I get more comfortable with the material on the SAT. With her help, I think I can be confident and well prepared on the test day.

Strategies for improving reading comprehension on PSAT and what to look out for in answering tricky questions when reviewing multiple answer choices.

Rebecca J. from Alexandria, VA

Ruth has worked on prepping my son for the ACT, and we couldn't be more pleased. She provided excellent feedback after each session, which allowed my son to focus on areas that need more of his attention. Her work with my son has boosted his understanding of how to take the test and raised his confidence about the material in each section of the ACT. We will definitely be using her for my other two children when their time comes for test prep! Thank you, Ruth!

Samani K. from Charlottesville, VA

Last winter I had tutoring sessions with Ruth as I was preparing to sit for the GRE and TOEFL tests. I was beyond satisfied and really lucky to have made that decision. She is sincere, compassionate about teaching, dedicate, and always went above my expectations. The scores that I have now wouldn't be possible without her help. To be specific, I have no knowledge of the US education system or any English language based system still, thanks mainly to Ruth's help, I have scored well in the GRE and almost got the full score in the TOEFL. I highly recommend Ruth as a tutor and language instructor.

Rick W. from Bethesda, MD

My son, a student at the University of Maryland, has had a tremendous struggle with Economic Statistics. He took it once and didn't receive the grade that he needed to continue with his Econ major. His professor's english skills (or lack of) didn't help, but the material was very challenging as well. He had one more chance to take the class and get at least a "C" to continue in his major. Enter Wyzant and Ruth S. I contacted them thinking that the expense would be more than worth it if it meant that my son could continue in his chosen major. Thank god I did. Ruth was fantastic. She was very patient with him and calmly explained many statistical principles that had never been clearly expressed to him before. She also was refreshing her knowledge as she went, in an impressive fashion. I would highly recommend Ruth. Bottom Line- He got a "B" in the class and now feels that he has a good grasp of the material.

Carole Turner T. from Arlington, VA

Ruth was readily available and prompt, both important because my son has a looming geometry test. Her instruction was clear and and her demeanor positive and friendly.

Sally E. from Fairfax, VA

Ruth quickly assesses my son's knowledge gaps to help him learn the day's lesson. He always feels more confident after Ruth's tutoring sessions.

Teresa M. from Falls Church, VA

Ruth has made my 15-year-old realize that she isn't bad at math, she just needed more explanation than her teacher at school was providing. Ruth has a very positive approach in her tutoring that has nurtured by daughter's confidence in her own abilities.

Justina H. from Takoma Park, MD

Ruth is an excellent tutor. I went to her looking to improve my spoken English as well as my communication skills. Within a very short period of talking to her, she had already identified what I needed and had recommendations for me of how I could achieve my goal. I look forward to learning more from her.

Nancy W. from Falls Church, VA

Thank you Ruth for doing an excellent job with preparing my son for the SAT II. I look forward to working with you again in the future, if and when tutoring needs arise for my other children.

Manuel V. from Arlington, VA

I had a lot of fun learning the subject and ease with which she explained it. It was a great first lesson. I look forward to continuing to work with Ruth!

Ms. Ruth was able to quickly identify the areas where I needed to focus on the most. She quickly developed a lesson plan to help me achieve my goals.

This is our first lesson with Ruth, she was amazing from the start, just got into the subject to teach my Son. She was detailed in explaining and my son enjoyed learning with her. Will continue to take lessons with her. Thanks Ruth!

Ruth helped my daughter with sentence structure and passive vs active for her upcoming grammar test for 10th grade English Honors. My daughter is feeling confident.

Gail L. from Falls Church, VA

I have been so impressed with Ruth's ability to focus on the trouble areas and teach my son how to overcome them. She can see what he doesn't and has the ability to instruct in such a way so that he recognizes what he is doing wrong and can fix it. Her work with him has been extremely productive.

Mary B. from Arlington, VA

Ruth has been great with my daughter as she works on SAT math - very patient with her and encouraging.
