Online SSAT - Middle Tutors across the globe

I took the SAT three times in high school and raised my score from 1220 to 1500. I enjoy the process of studying and hope I can help you make it a little more interesting and a little less painful. I recently had an IELTS student who successfully raised their score from a baseline of 5.0 to a 6.5—after only 7 tutoring sessions! I have over 7 years of experience teaching and tutoring English in mainland China and Hong Kong. I can also speak, read, and write in Cantonese and Mandarin at an intermediate level. I’m based in Fanling but happy to meet at any location convenient for you. I can teach students of all ages and levels. I look forward to meeting you and helping you reach your learning goals! 🥳🥳🥳
