How I Can Help

With Tara's guidance, I ended up getting an A for my worst subject, English. In Spring 2022, I had many online tutoring sessions with Tara for a college level English course. As someone who has always struggled with writing, I am thankful that I found Tara because she tailored each lesson to meet my needs as a student by identifying my strengths and weaknesses as a writer and teaching me new skills that I still use today. I enjoyed working with Tara because she was organized, punctual, and professional during my entire experience. I also liked the quality of her lessons because I learned so much about writing papers from her. I highly recommend her as a tutor. ~Lhia A. 

I've been working with tla for well over a year and a half. I'm very late to the writing game and have found her to be very supportive and encouraging. I found her to be honest in her appraisal of my work. If a plot line doesn't make sense or is not clear, she tells me. ~Jim M. 

Tara is very special to me because she helped to improve my English skills. Since the beginning of our sessions, we communicated very easily. She understood what I needed quickly and made our plan accordingly. Our sessions were always enjoyable, and she made me feel comfortable. She is so kind, positive, and open-minded person. She has improved me in every way, not just my English skills, so I would like to thank her very much.  ~Irem P.

My son has claimed Tara is the best writing tutor he has ever had! She relates well to students, gives practical suggestions for improvement and then follows up in a timely manner. THANK YOU!! ~Kelley B.

Tara was absolutely the best tutor I have ever had. I hired Tara as my tutor when my science brain was struggling with my English classes in college. She and I worked together quite frequently for about 1.5-2 years. I would recommend her to anyone as she is extremely patient and kind. Also, every paper/assignment we worked together on, I got an A! She definitely was paramount in helping me pass my English classes. Thanks, Tara!  ~Nicole J. 

Tara is quick to respond, an excellent tutor as she encourages students to think of ideas on their own with engaging prompts, and she’s always a friendly tutor. My daughters have excelled in writing AP Literature papers with her guidance. I highly recommend using her. ~Julie H. 

It's a mistake to overlook this tutor, and here's why. As a mother with a full-time job, I knew returning to school would be difficult. In my first semester, I struggled with my English Composition class and feared I would not even make it to the end. Fortunately for me, I found Tara and worked with her weekly. Tara's bright and encouraging personality is inspiring; she truly has a gift that gave me the confidence to overcome my anxiety. As they say, "Proof is in the pudding," and for me, I not only passed the class, I got an A! I learned more from Tara than I ever would have in my class. You can, too, if you select Tara as your tutor. ~Hazel L.
