Award-Winning Graduate Test Prep Tutors in Georgetown, TX

...writing and 2 years of experience teaching English and writing in the college classroom. My favorite subject to tutor is Writing, but I also enjoy doing test prep -- tests can be a fun challenge for the student, and I love helping students to see it that way! I believe that any subject can be fun if you look at it in the right way. I am an English geek, in love with all aspects...

...well as SAT/ACT and MCAT prep. My favorite classes to help students with are biology, physics, biochemistry and statistics! I took 14 AP classes in high school, and retook many of the math and sciences class in college. I think this helps with tutoring because I learned the material multiple times and from many great teachers, so if a student doesn't understand a concept at first, I can hopefully explain it in another way that...

...themselves and their own abilities and knowledge. One of the key ingredients to doing well on homework assignments and exams is to be confident in oneself. Confidence leads to perseverance and tenacity, but it is often the first quality that is lost when a student is having trouble in school. I believe that by helping my students realize just how capable they truly are, I can help them rebuild their confidence when they study, do...

...In essence, I have years of experience tutoring and teaching languages, writing, testing strategies, and other various subjects for students from elementary through college. Additionally, I am well-versed in university admissions for both graduate and undergraduate programs, and I can offer consulting on how to develop applications. I believe in making learning relatable and fun; rather than lecture my students, I design engaging and entertaining lessons, exercises, and even games for them. Understanding of material...

...math and art history. I strongly believe in holistic approaches to education, and as a computer science at a liberal arts college, I had invaluable experience studying both math and science while continuing to develop my critical writing, reading and research abilities. At Vassar, I was deeply involved in the computer science department as a tutor and lab coach for several years and as the department-wide academic intern. In these roles, I worked with students...

...to recognize that every student is an individual, so they should get a unique experience. The tutor and the student should work together to figure out what is best. I tutor all levels of English: reading, writing, and literature; this includes test preparation for AP, IB PSAT, and SAT. I also tutor U.S., World, and European history as well as U.S. Government and Politics. I also tutor Spanish up to the level of AP Spanish...

...mistake!". The teacher tries to hear what the student wants and then figures what to work on in order to get there. I've been both a student and teacher of guitar, and I try to take that teaching style into my tutoring. I never start by explaining material or by "simplifying" it (because that usually means repeating it again and again!) but by listening to the student and finding out exactly the student already knows...

...took the GRE exam and scored a 337/340, with a perfect 170 score on the quantitative section. While my number one priority for students I work with on standardized test prep is a thorough understanding of the material covered in the scope of the test, I also understand that scoring well on standardized tests often requires more than a firm grasp of the subject matter under examination. It requires a commanding understanding of test taking...

What's up! I am a recent graduate of WashU with a major in Biology with plans of applying to medical school. I am an expert in mathematics and the natural sciences, and love helping students discover these subjects. I am cool, down to earth, and funny, and enjoy making connections with students.

...tone and author's preconceived notions about the student's background. Therefore, when I tutor I build the framework from the ground up and depend a lot on visual aids (diagrams and charts) rather than formulas and numbers. I believe that there is no such thing as a dumb question and I address each question as many times as necessary . I also include a lot of examples and encourage the students to come up with their...
