For this reason, I enjoy helping people who tend to prefer a particular mode to understand the other,...

...acceptance of many students (who struggled considerably with academics and standardized tests) into ivy league and other top tier schools. I believe that the most successful learning comes when the student is able to develop a self-sustaining curiosity and interest in the subject matter, and, along with imparting skills and techniques to maintain grades and test scores, I have developed techniques myself to make students feel this sort of interest in what they're studying (even...

...lesson applies to every academic discipline and I use it when instructing students in European History or English Literature or the PSAT Critical Reading section. In order to achieve a firm grasp over any particular subject matter, one must understand both the raw data - dates, names, sentence structures, vocabulary - as well as the times in life when theoretical knowledge must be made into practical experience. When teaching, I make an effort to pair...

...LSAT tutor I believe in the tireless and rigorous application of methods. The tests can both be very rewarding if one understands the laws behind the questions. I believe that preparation should focus on creating strategies and methods that respond to these laws.
