I have had several tutoring engagements with Joan and recommend her highly. She really helps you get to your goal. She's been a tremendous help to me in honing my business writing skills and also helped my grandson excel on the English PSATs. We'll continue to use her!

I really appreciated the time and effort that she put towards me. It was a tremendous help and I felt extremely prepared for the SAT. Mrs. Kaplan would always try to arrive on time for our appointments and would even spend extra time with me if needed. If anyone is serious about doing well on the English section of the SAT, I highly recommend Mrs. Kaplan.
