About Schenectady
Schenectady is a city whose name is derived from a Mohawk word meaning "beyond the pines." It was settled in the 17th century by Dutch colonists, and it has since grown to a population of over 66,100 people.
Three main school districts serve Schenectady: Rotterdam-Mohonasen Central School District, Schalmont Central School District, and Schenectady City School District. Between those districts, there are three high schools in the city, with Schalmont High being the best. You'll potentially improve the chances of admittance to this top school if you connect with one of the Schenectady, NY, tutors available for private tutoring, instruction, and test prep, either in-home or online. One way to potentially improve on that important exam is by connecting with a private Schenectady tutor who has both in-home and online tutoring experience in instruction for test prep. Several institutions of postsecondary learning are also available in the city. Union College, Modern Welding School, and Ellis Hospital School of Nursing are all located in Schenectady. You might excel in your schoolwork with the benefit of tutoring in Schenectady, NY.

The student and I went over his Chapter 12 review material, and I prepared a test for him to take when I first arrived. He did well on the test. I was able to observe and help the student with good test taking habits, such as writing formulas/notes on the top of his test as he received it, rather than relying on memory for every problem. Everything went well, and we continued to go over similar review materials. I made flashcards with all the volume/area formulas for the student and quizzed him on them until he was able to recite them as soon as he saw them.
I left him with the notecards to practice with 1-2 times per day until his test, so that the material will really sink in. The session was overall a great success.

The student and I had our final session before Saturday's ACT. We reviewed all subject tests, and, perhaps more importantly, wrapped up by talking about his game plan moving forward. I encouraged him to review a bit more this week, including the math formulas he should have memorized and the various strategies and techniques we have discussed the past four weeks or so. I encouraged him to be as rested and alert as possible and to remain actively aware of time management. It has been nice working with him. I wish him all the best.
