...I have been through multiple levels of the standardized testing process and appreciate how difficult it is for students to overcome this obstacle in order to reach their goals.

...in the field. My interest in philosophy and first-order logic led me to undertake the LSAT as a personal challenge. My first attempt put me in the 97th percentile, and I've continued to study and refine my test-taking methods, treating LSAT questions like my daily crossword puzzle.

...to private education. As a tutor and teacher, I focus primarily on writing, reading, and grammar. I teach/tutor with an emphasis on student confidence, and diligence, as they are the keys to any successful academic pursuit.
