...students on college entrance exam preparation, and has worked professionally as an editorial assistant for research institutions. Her personal goal is to help students build a foundation of solid study skills that they can rely on throughout their education so that they have the confidence to perform their best in every course.... My first session is always focused on getting to the know the student's areas of comfort and concern, as well as working through a few questions from each area we'll address to see how he or she approaches problems. Discussing the goals of our time together is important, and that begins with understanding his or her learning style. Tutoring is a personal matter, and ensuring that a student is comfortable working with me is a major priority of mine.

Also, I want to give students the tools to succeed in subjects outside of what we directly cover. ...
