In addition to general coursework, I'm more than happy to help with exam prep for the math, science, and writing sections of the SAT/ACT (no critical reading/reasoning...not a huge fan of that stuff!). Outside of school, I really enjoy traveling to other countries during breaks or whenever I get the chance. I love experiencing new cultures and diverse foods, and seeing...

I can also tutor in writing and reading, since I have experience as a professional copy editor. My focus when tutoring is student understanding. I believe academic goals are more readily achievable when concepts are understood, rather than formulas memorized. When helping students prepare for standardized...

I often struggled to understand relatively simple concepts, especially when compared to my classmates, whether that was in test-taking or in any academic subject. So, I know what it's like to really wrestle with a subject, and I know what kind of assistance is helpful (and what kind...

With patience, repetition, and an understanding of how the test writers think, the LSAT can become predictable and...

I offer tutoring in the social studies, mathematics, and Spanish as well as test prep for the SAT & GRE, both of which I have taken. I hope that we can move you forward in your academic endeavors. Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, video games and aikido.... I always want to push my students to be better. Especially with tutoring, it is about learning what you, the student, can do, and working with you to increase your skills and be able to perform on a consistent basis.
