As a former accountant turned educator, Lovella’s career transition and decision to go back to college to obtain her master’s degree in secondary education stemmed from her dissatisfaction with the educational system through a parent’s eye. When her children were prepping for their SAT and ACT testing that, although they were good students, their friends were struggling with some of the most basic concepts of their standardized testing. She worked with them to do test prep and all of the students, including her kids, performed much better after re-taking the test with her help. Her ability to coach students through the test makes her well equipped to help your child with College Prep, Test Prep, and more.
