Leticia: SHSAT test prep instructor
...Physics, and SAT. I believe that there is more to life than just studying and receiving good grades. Studying can become a burden when it gets complicated and difficult to understand and can get in the way of you just living. I am here to help you to make it less of a problem for you, and find your own unique method of studying to prevent studying from becoming such a nuisance.... No one is not smart. Anyone can learn any concept; it is just the amount of dedication and desire to learn and internalize the concept that divides us.
