About
Updates: Many of my students prefer the virtual format, but I do offer in-person in Carmel and some surrounding areas. Need scholarship money? SAT or ACT giving you a headache? I can help. I have helped many students raise their grades, test scores, and confidence levels, while helping them to win thousands in scholarship money. I have worked for just about every big name tutoring company, and I have chosen to advertise my personal services as I can offer better value and customize lessons for each individual student. With time, practice, and the right approaches, students can raise their SAT/ACT scores significantly. Average improvement is 80-150 pts on SAT and 3-6 composite ACT pts; I have had students improve over 8 ACT pts and 250 SAT pts. My approach is customized for the student, as every case is different (which test to take, how many to take, how long to prep, etc.). I also help students find, develop, and write the right essay topics for their college essays. I also tutor high school math (algebra I and II, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus), science (biology, physics, chemistry) and language (Spanish and English). I have extensive experience in working with students with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, processing issues, etc. I have helped students in all levels of courses, including honors and AP levels. I know it's hard to tell from a profile which tutor is best for your student. Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions so you can learn more about who I am and how I work.

Ellen did a great job with SAT tutoring for my daughter. She was enthusiastic and hardworking and my daughter really enjoyed working with her. She did a great job explaining the material and provided great tips and strategies for the test taking process.

Ellen is an awesome tutor! She was super helpful at breaking down concepts for me when I was studying for the SAT! Ellen makes sure you understand concepts, instead of just brushing over material. She’s a great tutor if your looking for someone to help you improve at work with your specific problem areas.

She is patient and very helpful. After testing where I was at the beginning, she started working with me from there and helped me improve noticeably. No regrets at all😊

She is an amazing tutor!!! I am not exactly the quickest learner, but she has helped me come a long way in how I study and I’ve seen a lot of improvement in my study skills. She knows all the SAT/ACT subject material and is able to teach new things to students based on their unique learning styles. Overall a great tutor!!!!

Ellen is the best, very calm and patient. She explains things so the kids understand what they are doing. She helped raise my twins scores for the SAT to get them in there desired schools. She was willing to work around our schedule and fit in extra help when needed. I highly recommend Ellen.
