If you are looking for someone to help you where others have failed, or if you just want the best, then I'm definitely your tutor. Key focus must be on the student overcoming any mental barriers he/she may have to understanding the subjects. I teach concepts first and test taking second. If you know the concepts, the test results follow, but test taking strategies are also emphasized. I specialize in college level courses but am willing to tutor the highly motivated college-bound high sch... Read more

I absolutely love working with students. I believe each student is unique. Every child learns in a different way, and I try my hardest to have them succeed in their own learning way. I plan to work with each student as an individual. Each and every student is unique in their learning styles. It is about adapting work to meet their style, to explain things in ways that will make sense. Children are our future and we need to prepare them :) I'm currently a certified special education (K-12),... Read more

I've been blessed with a 30+ year career in broadcasting, teaching English and Public Speaking at major universities and working with senior level executives of Fortune 500 companies as a presentation coach and public speaking tutor. It's not the big things we teach you that make the difference; it's the little things. Public speaking is still the Number #1 fear among American adults, who have repeatedly voted it worse than an IRS audit or a root canal. Good public speaking is nothing ... Read more

As you can see from my picture, I've been tutoring for a long time! I've always had an innate talent for doing well on standardized tests, my greatest accomplishment in the field being an 800+ (never knew about the "+" until then) on the Verbal section of the GRE when I was applying to grad school. I'd been helping students with the SAT and GRE even before then, but it was about fifteen years ago, when I was formally trained by the Kaplan organization in tutoring the SAT and ACT, that I reall...
