...is a trick question, and teach you how to spot similar tricks in the future. Just like counting to 100 (or even 1,000,000,000) is no longer scary once you learn how the numbers are combined, so too the placement exams will lose their bite once you learn how they are constructed and how the test-makers think.

I am also an Algebra tutor because I have been studying for the GRE (which requires a fair bit of Algebra) and I have some math background as part of my Economics coursework. As an undergraduate,...

...most rewarding to tutor students one-on-one; not only was I able to individualize lesson plans to their specific needs, but it was gratifying to clearly see my student academically grow. My favorite subjects to tutor would be Math and Languages. I see Math as number puzzles. I believe almost every complex equation can be solved with a series of simple equations; the puzzle is figuring out what easy calculations are needed to solve a tricky...
