Experience
I am an exceptionally experienced tutor and homework helper. I specialize in standardized test preparation, time management, organizational skills and have a particularly strong emphasis on Mathematics and English Grammar. I cater to the spectrum of individual students, from those avoiding remedial classes, to those that just need to pass the test, to the few and far between genius students who want more consistency and to be given the edge to go farther. I can essentially teach anything up through Theoretical Physics. I have taught everything from dance to Latin, to the SSAT, Masters level English! I love tutoring. My students are the bright spot in my day and bring me a sense of fulfillment I could not find anywhere else in the world. When it comes to standardized test preparation and strategy it can an be stressful and seem a little overwhelming for a student. I focus primarily on HOW to take the examination (strategy) and secondarily on the content of the test itself. Also, I administer/proctor several full practice tests throughout our time working together specifically one at the beginning and near the end to not only serve as proof of improvement but also to analyze them for both what types of questions he or she needs to work on and how to better strengthen the critical thinking skills that come with it section by section. In addition, I am quite knowledgeable about admissions and have had students make huge, significant improvements on their test scores and compose splendid, strong essays.
