Why is Christina the best tutor for your child?

To be effective, a tutor must understand the test, and understand how to meet the needs of each student.

Forming a good relationship with the student (and parents) is absolutely essential for effective tutoring.  I have a proven ability to adapt to the needs of individuals- whether they need more encouragement or more motivation; whether they need to spend time mastering basic concepts or need to hone their skills on the toughest questions.

You need a tutor who's knowledgable, adaptable and engaging.  That's exactly what you get with Pittsburgh Test Prep.
