I was able to bring up my score on my SAT's and he helped me write a stunning college essay. Howard was patient and made hard concepts seem easy.

I was not the best test taker but Howard helped me to get a good score on the ACT/ SAT that helped me get into all of my top colleges . He also helped me write my common app essay, which was an amazing essay that I could not have done without him. If you are looking for a tutor who is great with the entire college process, I HIGHLY recommend Howard.

Howard have been tutoring my two daughters so that they could increase there SAT/ACT scores. He slso tutors me in Pre-Cal Math and English Literature. He is an excellent tutor that knows the material he is teaching. He is always willing to go above and beyond. He makes sure we understands the material. I was surprised when after just 3 weeks working with my daughter, she was able to raise her SAT scores by 90 points. My daughter has an A in Math now all because of Howard. Myself was failing Math in College. I had a D in the class and now I have a B. My first test I got 46%, and after working with Howard within two weeks I got a 94% on my next test. I don’t know how he know these stuff. It just comes naturally to him. If you want your child or even you has an adult going back to colkege like myself; Howard his the guy you need. My daughters are not the easiest kids to teach, but everytime Howard leaves my home they have more confidence in themselves and they grades have increase. So I know he’s doing a grest job.I recommend him with a 110%.

Howard was excellent help for my daughter. She has a learning disability and many extracurricular activities. My daughter said he was one of the best teachers she has ever had and wished he taught in her high school. He was patient. He never criticized her or made her feel inadequate. He just showed her what she did right and how to do better the next time. She gained confidence each week, and she started to look forward to tutoring and college applications. Also, we had to reschedule a few times because of her extracurricular activities and schedule changes, and it was never a problem; Howard was very accommodating. Britney’s score went from a 1030 to 1190 and she was able to apply to Appalachian State, her first-choice school. We will be contacting him next year for our son.

Howard worked with my daughter on the ACT. She had taken the test two times and never been able to get above 22 composite. After 7 weeks, she took the test one last time and raise her score to a 26 composite. She was so happy. She’s a good student in school, but doesn’t test well in timed situations. We continued to work with Howard on college essays and applications. Our family is very happy with the results.

I offer free consultations so that I may introduce myself, meet the student and parent(s), assess the needs of the student, create a plan of action, and schedule sessions. I tutor at the the student's house, preferably at a kitchen or dining room table for convenience and supervision. However, I am flexible and willing to discuss alternatives.

I have earned a B.A. in Philosophy from Tulane University and B.A. in English Literature and a Master's in Teaching - Secondary School English Literature from The Citadel.
