Carefully selected, highly-credentialed SSAT tutors in Encinitas, CA
"I first began tutoring as a sophomore in high school when my neighbor asked me to tutor her son and after receiving positive feedback, I began to search for more students who needed a little extra help in school. However, the bond I had with my original client remains strong to this day. After tutoring him for three years, whenever I return to Northern California, I visit the family to see how they are doing. I enjoy connecting with the clients on a personal level and maintaining a friendly environment."

"I learned more of the same from my year as an SAT instructor for a major test prep company, my semester as an aide to an 8th grade algebra teacher, and my six months as a volunteer literacy tutor for READ San Diego. I have had two years of training in tutoring and presenting material effectively. It is a common mistake of tutors to simply lecture rather than explain and interact. That is something you need not fear from me. I am a big fan of individual one-on-one tutoring, since a student's individual needs can often be overlooked in a classroom setting." ...
