Carefully selected, highly-credentialed HSPT Prep tutors in New York City, NY
"I have tutored students from 4th grade to seniors in college and enjoy them all. I especially love tutoring non-math types who think they will never get it! It is a great thrill to watch a student's confidence build and hear that wonderful sigh of relief when they finally 'get it'! I like to have fun in my sessions and I am careful to study my student's learning style. Once we tap into the student's natural strengths, the growth is exponential and the possibilities endless! My hobbies include singing/songwriting, playing piano, journaling, and dancing with my wonderful husband. I have 3 great sons ages 8, 5, and 2 years old." ...

"I was born in eastern Pennsylvania, grew up near Columbus, Ohio, and lived in Albania for four years during high school. I visited Kenya and Bulgaria this past winter -- my 26th and 27th countries! I joined Varsity Tutors mainly to help students with entrance exams (SAT, SSAT, ISEE, PSAT). I personally improved my score by 250 points in just two sections with a little personal study. I believe strongly that anyone who learns the structure, nuances, focuses, and limits of the SAT can not only improve their score but earn perfect scores like I did on the creative reading and writing multiple-choice sections." ...
