...students on their writing and preparing for standardized tests. I take time to evaluate my students' individual learning styles and goals, and I craft my approach around their needs.

In my spare time I enjoy reading, traveling, snowboarding, and scuba diving.

My last class of 20 students averaged over 300 points of improvements. I have had similar success preparing students for SAT subject tests and AP exams. My students benefit from my comprehensive knowledge of the subject matter, high energy, enthusiasm, and patience. I spend time getting to know the individual needs...

...a love of learning. I hope to share this love with every student I encounter. I attended Ouachita Baptist University where I worked towards a degree in theater. I have experience tutoring a fifth grade girl, and I've always been helping my friends with their homework and helping them study for tests. I tutor English, History, Geography, ACT Prep, and Math. I enjoy all the subjects I tutor. I teach with love and encouragement, helping...

...own tutoring practice, I've also been director of a non-profit tutoring center. Under my administration we tracked students' scores and attained the highest average grade increase in the program's history. By guiding other tutors and consulting students for feedback on their experience, I got a very keen sense of what works and what doesn't. In tutoring, I focus on results, but not to exclusion. I want to provide the student with a meaningful experience. That...

...won literary prizes from UConn and Mount Holyoke. I also worked for the University Writing Center. Working with students one-on-one, informed by faculty guidance and frequent workshops, I developed a tutoring style that focuses on collaboration and flexibility. No matter the subject, I believe that we learn best when we discover for ourselves, and forget when we are lectured. I spend my spare time reading, writing, talking, listening, and trying to stay active, so that...

...three factors. Planning, practice and timing (all of which falls under the umbrella of responsibility). And those are things that I target in my tutoring. So when you receive a lesson from me, you'll see that it's more than just rote section after section. It's more meaningful. Maybe you'll even learn a couple life lessons (I know I did). So take a leap of faith, and let's make that great ACT score happen.... My teaching philosophy is to help students improve their test scores by connecting with them on a deeper level, adapting to changing circumstances, and working as efficiently as possible in the time that we have.

I have passed the Praxis Mathematics certification exams with a Certificate of Excellence (top 15%) and hold two NJ teacher's certificates. In 1997, I was...

...(Swedish and Russian, which I now speak fluently), took subjects in the humanities and the sciences, became a Pilates instructor, and also played drums and wrote music professionally! As a result, I can truly get in the mindset of a student who is learning something - NO question is out-of-bounds or silly - it all comes from a place where the mind is trying to incorporate new information. There is nothing worse than an expert...

...College. I received my Bachelor's degree in Political Science with a minor in French; my studies primarily focused on international affairs. I am passionate about teaching areas I focused on during my four years in Boston including history, government, and French but also have an established background in writing, literature, and English. I believe it is important to identify a unique approach for every student according to their specific needs because as I have learned,...
