We hired Sandy to do some last minute tutoring for our son. In the short time that she worked with him, she was able to teach him invaluable skills and techniques to raise his SAT score. Sandy is a fun and patient teacher who hones in on what the student needs to improve their performance and equips them with the necessary tools to be confident and successful on the test. My only regret is that we did not hire her sooner!
