...to accept that a single number, derived from hasty answers to abstract questions, can play such a huge 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...

Students have so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests. We cram with flashcards, pull all nighters, and even sacrifice our social time to prove to the world that we retained what we learned that year. But are we *actually* learning?

As long as she felt grounded enough to access her innate understanding of the world around us, she progressed. Later on, my...

As a current undergraduate student, academics have always been important to me. About a year ago I finished up the college application process and was finally able to sit back and be proud of myself and what I had accomplished throughout my high school career. Being proud of my academic achievements has always given me such a sense of fulfillment, and by being a tutor I hope to pass that good feeling on :~)
