Have you ever tried to learn a musical instrument?
Unless you have a certain type of personality, learning the instrument without a teacher can be pretty hard.
However, even if you had a teacher, you probably didn’t make much progress unless you practiced quite a bit between every lesson.
On top of that, if you ever wanted to perform live in a recital or a band, you also learned that it was critical to practice your complete sets before going live for the first time.
Test prep is very similar! But the components that make for successful test prep are...
Tutoring, Homework, & Mock Tests
I strongly believe that successful test prep requires 3 components – tutoring, mock tests, and homework. I provide all three components and work together with you to create a customized program. This means that I will analyze your mock tests to pinpoint your problems areas and create the most efficient test prep agenda possible. My rates also include out-of-session support. I really care about, and am invested in, all of my students and try to always be available via phone or email for things like homework questions, etc.
It’s Not Just About the Score
Over a decade later, I still remember how stressful the college application process was. Every year, college admissions become more competitive and increased pressure is placed on students to perform well on standardized tests. As a result, I see students with extreme anxiety around the testing process. While raising scores is the official part of my job, I also like to place a great deal of emphasis on creating a calming atmosphere and tackling any anxiety that students may have.
