I have a life-long love of literature, reading and creative writing. Also, I believe one of my outstanding qualities is to instill this love of learning and literacy to my students, while they enjoy they excel with their ELA skills. In addition, I have tutored ELA for over 6 years from K-12 in a one-on-one and group setting, as well as adult and ESL learners.. Moreover, I am comfortable tutoring other primary subjects from K-8. Furthermore, I have a BA in English/Creative Writing from Columbi...

Lorraine is extremely patient, knowledgeable and, experienced. She spoke with me to understand my goals and made good suggestions to help my 12 year old daughter. I see a difference after only 2 lessons. We are definitely going to continue working with Lorraine. Highly recommended.

Lorraine is very efficient in working with kids on ELA. Providing the materials to the students in advance and then going over them at the session helps a lot. Both my kids had great experience with her.

Lorraine is a very knowledgeable teacher as well as very patient with my son. She also made extra time during her busy week to schedule a few extra visits with my son before his exam.

Lorraine is my 5th grade daughter?s new English tutor. She is the first English tutor for my daughter. Since the reading and writing get more complicated in 5th grade, I hope her tutoring will help her, and prepare her well to go to middle school next year. Although she just gave my daughter few lessons, my daughter loves and enjoys her teaching very much! She is very knowledgeable and patient, and knows how to teach English for kids very well. She brings my daughter?s understanding of reading, grammar and writing to a new level in very short period of time. My daughter would like to have her tutoring for at least one more semester.

We had good communication. The reply is always prompt. As Lorraine said, my nephew?s English language proficiency still needs to improve. That?s also the reason why we want to have ESL lesson. He could communicate perfectly with the previous tutor who also speaks English only. But that tutor had a new job, and the schedule couldn?t match. ESL teaching is not easy, different learner has different needs.

Lorraine helped me outline a college writing assignment for an overwhelming examination paper. She offered a lot of advice to organize my ideas in correlation to the paper's rubric. Her tutoring lessons made me feel comfortable, and the effect made me feel more confident with my approach on the ways to structure and analyze the examination paper. Lorraine was unusually resourceful as she collaborated with me on my college assignment, therefore I can imagine she makes an honorable effort to tutor all of her students in the same fashion.

Lorraine is helping my son, who is not a native speaker, prepare to SHSAT. She always has all required materials, pays attention to details and explains everything really well. I noticed significant improvement in my son's English at school after only 3 or 4 lessons.
- Petro K. from Brooklyn, NY
Lorraine has been working with my son. In the 1st session she tested his grammar and writing abilities and has come up with a plan to help him with his writing techniques and strategies. In addition to the basic writing and grammar, she is working within the timeframe that he will be taking the SAT and has planned for that. I'm very happy with Lorraine's professionalism and teaching ability.

My 7 year old son looks forward every week to see Ms. Lorraine. He enjoys working with her & she makes learning fun for him. She is very kind & patient with him. Gives him praise when he does well & encourages him kindly when he needs help. If you?re looking for a knowledgeable, caring tutor, Lorraine is your lady.
- Jackie D. from Staten Island, NY
Lorraine was patient and kind, allowing me to learn while guiding me to learn how to become more proficient with Final Cut. I highly recommend her as a tutor! She was incredibly patient and breaks things down in a way that is super easy to understand. I look forward to more lessons with her as I improve my skill set and improve my writing strategies.
- Alaa A. from New York, NY
She was exactly what I was looking for. Thank God for the class. She totally understand my needs, and she was very helpful. She also was able to provide me with excellent advise. I will recommend her anytime.
- Susana C. from Boston, MA
When my son was diagnosed with dyslexia I had to find someone that had the knowledge to be able to teach him to look at and process words differently then everyone else. Lorraine took the time to analyze his difficulties. If one process doesn?t work she try?s another till he understands. She also helps him with his writing skills. Lorraine is very patient and I highly recommend her for your tutoring needs.
- Elizabeth M. from Staten Island, NY
Lorraine reviewed two of my college admittance essays and helped create beyond what I was hoping for with each. Her help was crucial in creating two well written yet creative pieces.

- KYLE K. from Jupiter, FL
Lorraine has been helping my son Enzo with his reading/writing for a while now ( 5 or 6 lessons). I can honestly say that I see the improvement in Enzo's abilities. This will very much help him to start the school year on a positive note and make progress on his reading level and writing skills. We plan on continuing to use Lorraine's help.
- Leticia S. from Linden, NJ
