...I founded my own company. Tutoring works best when you start with plenty of time before your test, when you practice multiple times a week, and when you and your tutor can really understand each other's brains. That's why I am substantially lowering my prices and taking on fewer clients to meet regularly with me throughout the full course of their class or Test Prep cycle. I love getting to know people personally, seeing their...
