I also persuaded my principal to adopt the SAT/ACT preparation elective that I taught to sophomores and juniors, because of my personal commitment to ensuring that bright and capable students in my school received the preparation necessary to achieve their post-secondary goals.

I am a great tutor because I use analogy, mnemonics, and memorization tricks. I find the easiest way to reach an understanding that will "stick" in a student's brain is in terms of something they are already passionate about.
