Emma
Experienced Tutor with a Focus in Math and Science
In middle school, I was a very humanities-oriented student and had a lot of trouble with math. I learned to train my brain to think in a more STEM-oriented manner in high school, achieving all As or A+s in my honors/AP math courses and am now currently a STEM major in the area of neuroscience! As a result, I know what it is like to approach a subject when it does not come naturally and am proof that you can still be successful! I look to break things down for my students in a functional manne... Read more

An excellent tutor for all Science subjects
All through my years as a tutor I have always tried to live by the words once spoken by the great Benjamin Franklin: “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learnâ€. In my senior year of Queen's high school, I assisted teachers and worked as a assistant, teaching science to elementary and middle school students. It had been a great learning experience for me and helped me develop not only my experience as a teacher but also my interest in the art of teaching. ... Read more
Dr.
Elite, Internationally-Renowned SAT/GMAT Expert ($550/hour)
I was a Physicist who enjoyed my work. However, while being a Professor at a University, I began taking the SAT and all of the other Standardized Tests every year and getting perfect scores, mostly for fun. I was also tutoring part time, and started to see how much fun it was to work one-on-one with students and help them achieve massive increases. So in 1995 I opened my first Learning Center and quit my day job, and the rest is history. I have written several Test Prep books, continue to... Read more
