One of the Best Tutoring Services near Oakland, California
Bright adults or teens worried about HSPT prep for entry to competitive private high schools, SAT or ACT prep for your preferred universities, or passing CBEST/CSET/Praxis scores to get or keep your teaching job: you’re in the right place.
Your results-oriented tutor identifies your learning gaps, develops an attack plan, then regularly and promptly meets with you to help you fill gaps and shift to your next normal.
If you can’t meet in person, a substantive online tutoring alternative is available– and not the sit-in-front-of-the-screen-reading-slides kind, either. Here, you’ll write, think, speak, and possibly move a lot – anything that breeds expansion of the English and math understanding you’ll need to carry you abroad or strengthen your standing in Oakland.
Learn and
Improve Your
English, Math,
and More.
Make sure your A’s and B’s mean somethin’!
Earning high marks is demoralizing, especially after working with an English or math tutor, you still can’t crack 1050 on the SAT or pass CBEST or CSET, or when you take an ESL course–or private English lessons–but are afraid to speak English. With English, Math & More, intentional customers meet or exceed teachers’ expectations or testing standards for CBEST, CSET: English or Multiple Subjects, SAT, ACT, HSPT, GRE, US Naturalization (Civics and English).
Private Tutoring
Why English, Math & More?
Since 2011, your English and math tutor and test prep coach, Kenisha Carr, has only taken on prospective customers she thinks she can help. She sets personalized learning benchmarks, then positions customers to meet or exceed them. There’s no magic. Her 22+ years in the educational arena–and ongoing professional development–have taught her how to figure out how to help you shift from only knowing the “what” of things to understanding the “hows” and “whys”, too.
Intentionally learn what you’ve gotten away without knowing (or unlearn grammatical, mathematical, or pedagogical information and methods that are just straight up incorrect or harmful) to help boost grades or CBEST, CSET, HSPT, SAT, ACT, GRE, or US Naturalization scores.
Let’s get busy getting you over your academic, professional, or personal hurdles.
What Students Say
Mother of Sarah – English Tutoring – Wuhan, China
Thank u so much for your patience! Kenisha is a very nice teacher. [She] could help the student to get the key points in each class…and also help the student understand and remember all difficulties. She’s a good teacher knows how to deliver the points via “tiny techniques”…props, error correction, tpr-body language, [and] scaffolding.
YaVette Yates, Mother of W. Yates- SAT Reading & Writing Prep – Oakland, CA
Ms. Kenisha was amazing with my son. She made my son, who is high-level funtioning on the autism spectrum, comfortable in an unfamiliar environment and tailored a learning curriculum that fit his physical and comprehensive needs. His SAT scores increased significantly from his first attempt because of this one-on-one tutoring. Ms. Kenisha arrived promptly to our sessions, was flexible when we had to change a day at the last minute, and the cost was worth the outcome (so much so that we added extra sessions). Ms. Kenisha has a calm and patient disposition, is knowledgeable, and she knows how to engage the student. I would highly recommend Ms. Kenisha and her services.
Nataly Lopez-Vega – CBEST Math Tutoring – North Hills, CA
Looking back now, I could have saved so much money if I would have worked with her in the beginning.
Overall, she was an amazing teacher and not a tutor…Do keep in mind that she will hold you accountable. She’s not about wasting time. She is a teacher that has impacted my life and my teaching career.
