I was head of my high school's student tutoring program. Extra-help sessions are, in my opinion, essential to how teaching and learning happen. The goal is to understand concepts above and beyond memorizing facts, and understanding concepts involves being able explain them adequately to someone who isn't at the point of comprehension yet. I received a perfect score on my SAT Math subsection as well as on the Math Level 2 SAT Subject Test. Again, I believe a thorough knowledge of the test a... Read more
