    Math, English, SAT, GRE and GMAT Test Preparation for students aspiring to go to foreign countries for higher education.
    I specialize in tutoring math and English for school, SAT, GRE, GMAT exams and have an experience of a little over 3 years. My goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed and try to tailor the lessons according to each student. I assign homework after each lesson and conduct mock tests occasionally. I have also co-authored a math book JARVIS for ZIMSEC (Zimbabwe secondary education)
