Given the range of ages I've tutored, I've come to adapt my teaching style and goals to the necessities of a student. As someone who speaks 5 languages, I'm a firm believer in practical practice when it comes to language learning. Work smart and towards your goals. I have experience with a wide variety of goals, and if you have a specific examination or milestone in mind, I specialize in tutoring SAT Verbal, ESL, TOEFL, IELTS, ACT English, ACT Reading, AP English Language and Composition, AP English Literature and Composition, ACT Writing, English, GED Reasoning Through Language Arts, and GMAT Verbal Reasoning for All Levels Students. My teaching style is very interactive and engaging, I'll always make you the center of the lesson because it's you who wants to improve. I'll always offer practical advice and lessons based on the realities of your level and your goals, and I'll strive to keep the material informative and creative, based on topics that interest and resonate with you. I always tailor my approach to match students' interests and goals. Through personalized reading materials and writing exercises, I aim to enhance critical thinking and communication skills, which are the fastest to shine in writing.

One cannot be more glad to have Balbis as their English tutor because she's so patient and really connects with students on a personal level. She really understands each students needs and helps them understand the concepts behind using the words correctly and helps them expand their vocabulary too!

Balbis has been a super great tutor for me, a college kid in my second year. I wanted to get better at talking and writing in English, and Balbis has helped me so much. She’s smart, fun, and always cheers me on. Her ideas are cool, and she makes me want to try harder. My writing is way better now, and I’m really thankful for her. I’d give her 5 big shiny stars she’s the best
