Experience

I've tutored math and economics for school and college classes, and standardized tests, for the past five years, and taught test-prep classes at Baruch College for four years prior to that.

I got perfect scores on the SAT, GRE and GMAT math sections, and can show you how to break down and analyze the questions so you can solve them too.
