...community health, and for several years, I have been giving private music lessons in voice, violin, and music theory. In high school, I studied abroad in Rennes, France and now tutor immigrant children in Providence, RI in French. The most important lesson that I have gleaned from these teaching experiences is the importance of motivating students to make discoveries themselves. Though many students, especially in test-prep scenarios, are primarily concerned with arriving at the correct answer,...

...role in your future. My own experience as test-taker and test-teacher has convinced me that as a tool for evaluating students, standardized testing has its share of flaws. But the tests aren't unfair or unbeatable; they challenge you to learn a specific language. I don't mean the fancy vocabulary you'll want in a verbal section, but the forms and patterns of the questions themselves. With thoughtful effort, any student can learn to understand the language...

...for my students. First, I want them to leave my sessions feeling heard. I want to address my students’ most pressing questions and concerns, so I strive to create an environment where they’re comfortable articulating them. Second, I want them to walk into their tests or classrooms feeling confident. Even if they won’t know every answer, they'll have strategies and some tricks up their sleeves that will allow them to reach their personal education goals.

...I was in a unique position to help out fellow students, many even older than myself, from a young age. In fact, this even enabled me to tutor college courses as a freshman at NYU, where I double-majored in Physics and Biochemistry. I continued to tutor throughout college and after. I even started tutoring graduate-level exams for careers I did not intend to pursue. This includes the MCAT (old and new), LSAT, GRE, you name...
