This is going to be long, but a must read!!…read more If you've been struggling with the LSAT let me be the first to say it has NOTHING to do with your intelligence!!! Read that again. It doesn't matter how many times you've took the LSAT or who got into law school before you. Your time is coming. I've took the LSAT MULTIPLE times and have a history of underperformance on standardized tests. I never understood why until I found Shana. I never thought for a second that I possibly could be suffering from test anxiety. Test anxiety takes on many forms, but Shana will help you through it. I've been working Shana for the past two weeks remotely and let me tell you she's truly God sent. Whether you're religious or spiritual (maybe neither) it doesn't matter, but she's truly a blessing. Shana is passsionate about the work that she does and her students. Shana is a teacher at heart and she breaks down the material in such a way that things start to click instantly. Shana not only helps you master the LSAT, but she provides you with test anxiety strategies that will make studying easy. I look forward to studying with Shana and doing my hw. When you work with her, she will start to peel away at the layers of your anxiety. This needs to be done in order to make progress. Your anxiety has been in control far too long and it's time to let it go. Even if you're not suffering from anxiety, adhd, or other learning disabilities Shana is for EVERYONE. Invest in yourself and get Shana on your team. Studying this time around is different. I can see and feel it. I'm much more relaxed. I still have a lot work to do, but I'm ready this time. Thanks Shana! I'll post another update once I slay the LSAT in March! P.S. I've used all the major test prep companies before. What is the difference between them and Shana? Most of the instructors have never been teachers before and only started after scoring in the 99th percentile on the LSAT. Now that isn't a bad thing, of course you want to be in a class with an instructor who aced the exam( in my opinion). However, just because you're good at something doesn't mean you're qualified to teach it. Also, if you suffer from anxiety, adhd, and other learning disabilities they might not be able to provide you with the support/accommodations that you need. Shana is and her work speaks for herself.

Terry Graves tutored me from early high school through college. Through that time, I saw my writing…read moreskills improve tremendously. As a STEM student, I was not a strong writer or even very appreciative of literature. After working with me on a number of academic papers, I wrote with more confidence AND she taught me to appreciate prosody --the elegance in the written word-- to the degree that Thomas Hardy became my favorite author. She taught me to organize my thoughts and themes throughout a written piece. She also helped me organize my research. She helped me improve my grammar and punctuation skills which I carry with me to this day. With her help, I was able to bring up my grades significantly. She was always a patient, creative and imaginative teacher. I highly recommend Terry Graves.

Terry helped us with two things: ACT preparation and college applications…read more Terry planned the ACT preparation meticulously and the execution was first-rate. She motivated my boy very well and developed an excellent rapport with him. The tutoring was tailored to suit his individual needs and was at a very suitable pace for him. Homework that was set added to the overall effectiveness. His practice test ACT scores steadily improved as time went on. I am sure that his final score was much better than it would have been without the tutoring. The college preparation went extremely well, from help in identifying suitable colleges to the actual application process. She gave outstanding advice in crafting a great set of college essays, while being scrupulous in ensuring it was his voice that shone through. There were a lot of essays and ensuring we kept on the timetable was a very important part of the job, as was the advice on structuring and editing. The proof of the pudding is in the eating and my boy had a terrific crop of excellent admissions results and was offered some great scholarships. He was admitted to his first-choice school where he starts in the fall. Overall, Terry was great help to us in our preparations for college and was a real partner in our journey.
