Award-Winning SSAT Tutors serving Lynn, MA

...test prep/academic programs. As someone who has been working with high schoolers since college, I find that I am able to connect with students on the important process of excelling both in school and on standardized tests such as the ACT, SAT, PSAT, SSAT, ISEE, and the AP/SAT Subject Test exams. Though these provide schools with a glimpse into the student, I want to help them put their best foot forward. In my spare time,...

...the program. I am well-qualified to teach a wide variety of subjects due to the interdisciplinary nature of Harvard's education generally and of each of my majors specifically. For example, Environmental Science & Public Policy majors are required not only to take classes on earth and climate science, but also on economics, biochemistry, calculus, and social sciences. I spent a year on the pre-med track, so I'm well-versed in hard sciences. I also spent two...

...these areas boosts overall academic success and builds a student's self-confidence. In any subject, I focus on study skills, critical thinking, and independent concept reinforcement so that soon the student will no longer need me to excel. Some of my own favorite subjects to study include languages (I've studied Arabic, Spanish, Latin, and a sprinkling of Japanese), medieval history, and electrical engineering. When I'm not tutoring, I spend my time writing and performing spoken word...

...writing, public speaking, French, history and even test prep. I love exploring new ideas, practicing languages, and learning about other times. Tutoring is not just a chance to catch up or review materials but also an opportunity for collaboration, participation and the development of ideas, knowledge and learning strategies. I like taking an interactive approach with students and making sure that everyone stays engaged and that students work through materials themselves. I have a BA...

Teaching is my passion. When I am not tutoring for Varsity Tutors, I work in medical research. I love the idea of helping patients feel better and especially kids.

These are learnable skills and anyone can be a good tester with the right tools. I also love working with students on reading and writing, because these are subjects I have always loved. Oftentimes I find that my students just haven't found the right books,...

In my spare time, I love to read, do yoga, and...

I'm passionate about the social sciences, math, spanish, and all things natural...

I tutored my fellow students in Mandarin Chinese, French, and Chemistry. After I graduated, I went to China and taught English both at a school and privately for three years. Right now I am teaching English as a Second Language at a language school here in San Diego. I...

I was educated in China and the United States. Having taken many mathematics courses in both countries, I learned many ways to solve math problems by using strategies learned in both cultures. Therefore my background, in both learning and teaching math, is very strong.

I taught math at a community center during high school and I have recent experience helping fellow students with their homework and SAT prep. I try to approach tutoring the same way I would help a friend, by helping them build an intuitive understanding of the material rather than memorizing a set of rules. I love helping students...
