Helped my daughter with her college essay! The lesson started on time and review of essay before the lesson was a great idea! Follow up was good and will definitely go for the follow up lessons if needed. Thank you

Great first session with Gerald, where we spent time brainstorming ideas and helping me feel like I have a direction with my college personal statement essay.
- Rebekah R. from Plano, TX
Gerald was very helpful. He requested some examples of the writing I am having trouble with ahead of our tutor session. He studied the areas I struggled, with which was expressing myself clearly via email and letters. We reviewed the examples that I provided together during the sit-down we and made corrections. I decided to schedule another session with him.

Gerry did a great job helping give notes and feedback with helping my student with a paper on The Odyssey. His expertise was needed in a timely fashion and he was able to provide that. Will use him in the future!
- Annie M. from Dallas, TX
Gerald helped my son form better sentences. Worked with him on punctuation and really was able to assist him with descriptive writing and getting to the emotional context of the essay; instead of just putting lists together of events that happened.

I can?t say that I know the details in what was learned through the lesson because it was for my son but I can tell you this?My son was struggling on his English section of his SAT and now he is very confident in retaking the test. On the practice test he passed with flying colors! Would highly recommend Gerald to anyone needing English tutoring!!

He taught me how to improve my writing and guided me to think about the way I wrote. We discussed many topics and he assigned prompts for me to write which helped me practice what I learned.

Not one bad complaint about him, he was on time for all 4 sessions, emailed me extra lessons, and checked on me a few days later. Easy going and very positive. I was able to pass both college classes with his help.
- Joella W. from New York, NY
My son would like to continue to have a class with Gerald. Mr. Gerald can help him in essay writing and history study. So we are looking for a future class with Gerald and hope Michael can feel more fun for his history and literature study.
- Julia L. from Pleasanton, CA
Today was the very first session with my son. Gerald followed a great approach to understand the current level of my son and guided him on his writing. He suggested novel & magazine to read going forward which will help my son to improve. Thanks Gerald for your time & knowledge...hope to continue with such a great teacher.
