SAT/ ACT 2023 Prep Classes for High School Students
A partir de 36 $ /h
The SAT/ ACT can sound and feel daunting. Whether it's the first time a learner is taking it, or not, preparation is at the heart of testing well.
I bring personality and can-do attitude: high-energy, intense, and highly motivated. I work with a spirit of urgency, but I am also ready at any moment to ease up, relax, crack jokes, and take a quick break from the pressure of test prep.
My philosophy towards test prep is easily summarized: “Help students significantly improve their SAT and/or ACT scores, while providing a great experience to students & parents.” I appreciate that teenagers are all unique and interesting personalities! I tailor each lesson to each student, even depending on how the kids are feeling that day. I utilize a mix of highly-tested strategies and total content mastery to open students’ eyes to the secrets of the SAT/ACT.
But, on test day, students have to do the work themselves. Therefore, everything I teach in lessons is based around a solid core of personal practice, homework assignments, and grinding out practice problems.

Acerca de mí
I have over 8 years experience in tutoring students from Grades 3 to college level.
One of my earlier tutoring encounters was hosting a summer camp for students transitioning from other syllabi into the IB program; the modules included English, Math and Science. Having taken the standardized tests and also acquired competitive skills in test preparation, I find myself in a unique position to guide candidates through the process.
I am also adept in guiding students through college applications and essay writing from being a peer counselor on campus, and later a career counselor. I am resourceful at helping students master: Reading, Writing and Literature Mathematics (all sections) The SAT,ACT, GMAT and GRE (all sections) Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Precalculus Micro-, Macro- and other Economics courses Biology, Chemistry, Physics and History.
I provide a diverse offering of services, including, but not limited to: exam preparation, standardized test prep, homework help, concept reinforcement, projects, and essays. The reason I have found great success as a tutor is because I know how to explain difficult concepts to struggling students. My deep understanding of the various fields allows me to shed new light on topics and show students how to tackle problems in a way they can comprehend. My long and varied teaching experience and familiarity with standardized tests like the SAT enable me to design a unique approach specifically suited to each student's individual strengths and weaknesses.
My students enjoy working with me because I think of creative ways to explain complex concepts, keep tutoring sessions fun and stress-free, and always go the extra mile to make sure all of their needs are met. Most of all, I push students to challenge their own standards of success and equip them with the confidence and skills that allow them to exceed their own expectations.
