I was lucky enough to attend OU on a National Merit Scholarship that covered my expenses almost entirely, so the National Merit qualification process is one that I deeply believe in and understand. Successful test taking is as much a product of understanding the test itself as it is the material being...

...I actually remember what I learn! This is what makes me effective as a tutor. For one thing, I have ADD and this is something I have learned to use to my advantage. Before I learned coping skills in high school, I used to have to sit on the floor of my bathroom, clear everything off the counter tops and turn on the vent fan just to stay focused. It may sound crazy, but anything...

Being able to mold lessons to the student’s learning style is very important to me, because everyone has their own unique way of learning. Thus, I can customize and prepare lessons in the most effective way possible.

...school in Dallas, I sought out more opportunities involving tutoring. In addition to my position with Varsity Tutors, in my free time I also tutor graduate students in ESL and work with elementary students on basic reading skills and homework help.
