...My parents weren't in a financial state where they could afford a tutor for me but in some subjects, like chemistry, I definitely needed the extra help. What I couldn't get then, I'm here to give now. I pushed, and pushed myself until I got the grades that allowed me to graduate fourth in my class of over 800 students, and got me into the University of Miami, where I'm currently pre-med and majoring in...

My goal is not just to help students with a tough class or a standardized test, but also to teach them learning skills they can apply to the next challenge. When you work with me, we're not just practicing algebra (or whatever); we're practicing the kinds of behaviors that will help you succeed in future math classes. I work with students to match their learning style (visual, auditory, learning by doing, etc.).

ISEE-Upper Level Writing Tutoring FAQ
Unlike the rest of the ISEE (Independent School Entrance Exam) Upper Level, the Writing section is not scored by the test's administrators. Instead, it serves as the writing sample provided to private schools as part of the application process. This means that the person who decides whether a given student gets to attend a given school reads the essay themselves, so your child needs to make it count! If you feel that they could benefit from a little coaching, 大象传媒 can connect you with an ISEE-Upper Level Writing tutor to assist in their test prep.
Here is a brief checklist of what most schools are looking for in ISEE essays:
The ability to follow directions
A coherent organizational structure
A demonstration of a student's grammar and mechanical knowledge
A compelling case for why a student would be a good choice for their institution
That first step may seem obvious, but there are several traps that students may fall into. First, the directions state that students are to write out the prompt (unedited) before they start writing their answer. This is easy to forget, but doing so is effectively starting your essay with "I don't know how to follow directions!" One of the best ways to avoid this trap is to write several practice essays during ISEE-Upper Level Writing tutoring sessions to reinforce that you need to reproduce the prompt.
In addition, the questions are more personal in nature than the essay prompts most students are accustomed to. That said, it is still important to stay on topic and answer the question asked. If you're writing about what charity you would volunteer at if forced to choose one, don't go into a lengthy diatribe on your home life. Your ISEE-Upper Level Writing tutor is a valuable resource if you're ever unsure of how to approach a practice prompt, so ask them plenty of questions while you have the chance.
ISEE-Upper Level Writing tutoring sessions are also a great place to practice outlining your thoughts before an essay. You only get 30 minutes from start to finish, so pausing between paragraphs to figure out what you're going to say next isn't really an option. An outline gives you one convenient point of reference to help you plan your response. It also helps give your piece a logical structure that readers can easily follow.
Finally, you need to write neatly. If your handwriting looks like another language, high school ISEE-Upper Level Writing tutoring sessions are the perfect place to practice your penmanship.
