I am a retired diplomat with service at U.S. embassies in Mexico, Pakistan, Spain, Fiji, Guatemala, and Britain.

I don't mean to seem rude, but it's Tutors.com's policy that we pay for each reply. Thank you for your understanding. I am a reading and writing specialist. While I do tutor standardized test prep (SAT, ACT, etc.) and can improve your student's skills, I only tutor the verbal sections. I believe it pays to hire specialists.
