Kristin has 12 years of ACT test prep experience with The English Tutor with proven results. In addition to her experience in test prep, Kristin has years of experience as a high school English teacher and college planner. Her experience in the classroom has helped her hone her ability to engage all types of learners and modify instruction to meet the individual needs of each student with whom she works.

Kristin’s experience working with families as a college consultant gives her a unique perspective that the role of ACT/SAT test scores play in the college admissions process. She uses this insider information to craft a testing plan for students as they work to achieve their college admissions goals. The hallmark of Kristin’s professionalism is attention to detail, the ability to engage even the most reluctant learner, open and consistent communication with parents, and an energetic and engaging teaching style. Kristin often hears from parents that their child tells them ACT prep is fun! Kristin acknowledges that it IS fun to see kids have “aha” moments and reach their maximum potential! After working with countless students one-on-one, Kristin knows the profound impact that an individualized approach to learning can make for students.

In her work as a college planner, Kristin has worked with all types of students in identifying college options and has a proven track record in helping students transition from high school to college. Whether the student is a motivated high achiever looking to maximize college acceptances or a college transfer student who underperformed freshman year, Kristin’s individualized approach creates options and a pathway to success for students. She is thrilled to be able to offer this one-on-one approach to test prep and college planning to students as part of The English Tutor.
