About Me

As a student, I always excelled in standardized testing and developed a number of strategies that I enjoy sharing with students studying for the SAT, ACT, and GRE. My favorite subjects to tutor are Spanish, writing, history, and math for all levels. I love helping students see their own potential for success and discover their strengths. Through patience and hard work, they can improve in areas they don't feel as comfortable and eventually gain the confidence to take any test with ease and certainty. I am lucky to help students grow and flourish in many subjects and I enjoy working both with students who just need a little extra practice to students who are struggling in classes. Practice makes perfect and I utilize a mix of explaining difficult concepts and working through practice problems to help my students understand the material deeply and feel prepared and confident in class or during a test.

Q&A with Helen

I believe that my students can succeed in any subject and on any test, and I try to help them see that they can do even the hardest problems. My teaching style helps them feel confident in their ability to succeed, turning despair or frustration to determination and accomplishment.
