I offer high quality reading and writing test preparation at prices marginally lower than those of established tutoring centers. Having taught in test prep centers that charge outrageous amounts for their services, I dedicated myself to bringing those services in reading and writing directly to families at much lower costs.
I specialize in tutoring the Reading and Writing sections of the SAT, ACT, SHSAT, and TACHS exams. I am also an expert on the latest ELA CCLS and ELA Regents. Lastly, I am experienced in teaching how to write effective term papers and college application essays.

Business Owner
After teaching in almost every capacity of High School English for 15 years and prepping students for SAT’s, SHSAT’s for 10 years, I decided to become an independent tutor who could bring service directly to parents in need at more affordable rates than those of well-known test centers.
I have a history of improving through learning from my mistakes. I graduated with my specialized diploma degree with a 3.95 GPA after receiving a 3.4 GPA in my bachelor’s degree. I am regarded as a qualified model teacher by the my employers after struggling mightily early in my career. I recently finished in the top 99 percentile of the writing section of the SAT after finishing in the top 50 percentile in the exam in high school. I have tutored many students throughout the years to make drastic improvements and I am eager to help more in need.
