Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Before the first session, I interview students and get a full sense of what they're looking to accomplish. Then I develop a fully customized program of study to meet their individual needs. I get immense satisfaction from helping people learn and become confident in areas they were previously unfamiliar with. It's exciting to see that happen--often in a relatively short period of time.

Seamus worked with my daughter last fall during the very stressful college application process. The task of writing the critically important Common Application essay, as well as the supplemental essays required by each college, seemed overwhelming. Over the course of two months Seamus guided, calmed, and helped her to shape numerous essays. He assisted her in developing meaningful ideas and finding her voice, which led to beautiful and honest writing. Seamus spent unpaid hours editing her work, bringing revisions to their subsequent tutoring sessions. He understands exactly what the schools are looking for in the essay submissions and he is able to ensure that the writing meets those expectations. Most importantly, Seamus is a patient, humorous, and kind person who is able to build close relationships with adolescents, allowing them to shine even in the most stressful of circumstances. My daughter will be attending Middlebury College next fall and I believe that the essays were pivotal in her admission.

Seamus tutored my daughter in preparing for the SAT and SAT subject tests and was nothing short of brilliant, patient, and inspiring. I can not say enough good things about the work he performed with my daughter. He was instrumental in helping her achieve the scores that resulted in her attending her first choice, Wellesley College, (turning down an Ivy League school to which she was also admitted.) In the last year, I have recommended him repeatedly. He is a rare, excellent and inventive tutor.

My daughter was trying hard, but really struggling with AP French at her competitive Manhattan school. She was also resistant to the idea of outside help, at first, but Seamus' approach put her at ease. With his help, she caught up with her class and developed the skills/confidence to reach her AP score goals. Because of his results, I decided to use him to finally brush up on my own rusty Spanish, something I've known for a while would help with my career, and it wasn't nearly a hard as I'd feared. I wish someone like him had been around back when I was learning the first time. Highly recommended.
