...am now returning to tutoring during my MBA studies. I struggled throughout high school until finally preparing for the SAT and ACT, so I'm adept with picking up just what you're struggling with - I was there once, too. Now having performed in the upper 10% of all standardized exams I have taken and graduated with high honors with all my degrees, I'm glad to give back and help others achieve their goals.
