After studying for the SAT for years (since the 8th grade), I have an extremely comprehensive experience with the exam and its questions. In my first attempt, I was able to score a 1460 and on the second, I raised that to a 1540 (99th percentile). After this, I felt very confident in my ability to share my knowledge and experiences in mastering the SAT. So, I decided to start tutoring my friends and other students at my local library. I directly worked with 3-4 students at a time and provided them with very useful tips and tricks to rapidly improve their math scores on the SAT. After seeing the improved results of the students I tutored, I became very passionate about tutoring SAT Test prep. In my tutoring lessons, I will start off by understanding students' baseline scores, their goals, and the areas that they wish to improve. During tutoring, I will explain online by going through official SAT Test Prep lesson plans and then go on to explicitly teach them the concepts necessary to answer questions on all sections of the SAT. Focusing on weaknesses and motivating students to continue practicing problems consistently is my specialty and it has gone to improve their SAT scores significantly. I will also provide several resources to find SAT test problems online and practice with real tests as well.

After seven years of teaching test prep at all levels and three additional years teaching sixth grade math within New York's charter school system, I've decided I'd actually like to do what I'm best at: help people learn! While I'm more than happy to help you reach your goals on a standardized test, I don't want to have to use materials that I don't think are well suited to that test simply because they are the materials provided by the service I happen to work for. Although I'm excited to help young scholars realize that maybe middle school math isn't quite as tough as they thought, I cannot do that when I have to use a curriculum that makes every step of the math more difficult. Therefore, I've decided to start a new chapter in my career by providing my services freelance. I have a variety of talents, interests, and experience, which I strongly feel make me a well-rounded, seasoned educator. Typically, services that I have worked for have charged anything from $69-$189 per hour for test prep or even homework help, often sending in a tutor with less experience than myself (I know, I used to be that less experienced tutor). As I gain a client base and learn the ropes of providing my expertise without the support of a traditional tutoring service, I'm offering the same level of knowledge (and most likely more personality) for **less than half the price** of a traditional service. Let's learn together!

Rutgers University
Hi! I have been teaching English literature and writing courses for over a decade. I hold a BA from Rice University and PhD in English from Rutgers, and am currently a faculty member in the Writing Program there. I teach courses on English literature, composition, and proposal writing for business and sciences. In each of my classes, I help students who have little or no experience with academic writing or research master the skills they need to succeed at the college level and beyond. In addition to this classroom experience, I have tutored students, ages 8 to 40, in all forms of writing, from high school essays to application letters to grant proposals, as well as test preparation and broader executive function and presentation skills. In my sessions, I not only help students to internalize strategies for effective writing and problem solving, but also to build confidence and appreciate the process of learning. I can boast of former students at many top universities (including Yale, Penn, Columbia, Brown, and Oxford) and graduate programs in a variety of fields. Most importantly, I help students take pride in their work and in each step of their intellectual journeys.

My name is Ingrid Kambou Tachim and I am currently an incoming freshman at an Ivy League university majoring in Biology. I graduated from college with an Associates degree in Arts with highest honors and a 4.0 GPA. I also graduated high school with a diploma of distinction and a 5.2 GPA. I believe I am an excellent fit for this job, mainly because I have a passion working with children. As an older sister myself with two younger siblings, I find myself having to tutor more often than not. I have expanded this passion from inside my home to my community, by participating in volunteer tutoring for multiple organizations. I also find tutoring as an excellent way to sharpen my own skills, as teaching someone, especially someone younger, is the best way to test your understanding of a subject. Finally, I am an excellent communicator, and I find it simple to be able to deliver information to a child's mind and help them understand subjects they find challenging. Simply fit, this job is perfect for my skills, and I find myself the perfect candidate for it.

I am Hawraz, currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics at Harvard College. Tutoring students and helping them succeed has been a part of my life for most of my life. It started when I began tutoring my middle school classmates on our tests coming up. Ever since I loved the process of helping other students succeed academically! My tutoring continued in high school, during summers when I would teach students at a private center, and at Harvard College where I was a course assistant in multivariable calculus and economics classes. In short, I love teaching others! Most of my tutoring experience comes from individual 1-1 sessions, in which I emphasize students asking questions repeatedly on guiding them through the material. I also focus on making tutoring a fun experience and can give students material to practice with afterward. Of course, this approach can be changed based on individual needs and requests. I am always open to feedback from students and parents and will provide fast responses to messages. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a session!

Hello!! My Name is Morgan, I am currently completing a Masters in Computer Engineering and I have 3 years of experience in teaching. I am very passionate and find pleasure helping students be it young or old in Math. I have helped students prep for Exams such as AS and A Level Math, GCSE, SAT 1&2 , PSAT, GRE, IB AA/AI Math SL. I teach the beginner and intermediate level (secondary, middle and high school). I teach Math courses like Algebra, Trigonometry, PreCalculus, Rational/Irrational numbers, Complex Numbers Probability and Statistics, Co-ordinate Geometry, Circle Theorems and a lot more. I am very patient and give straight-forward and concise approaches to problems faced. In case the student does not understand , use other methods and tools which help break it down even further for better understanding. Methods used to enhance and improve the student's academics include, homework, solving of PAST PAPERS and as well assignments. My approach involves testing the student's approach in solving a problem, finding strengths and weaknesses. From here we can know how to gradually push forward. Book a trial lesson with me and have a very interactive/ fun lesson, and you wont regret it. :)

I have many years of experience tutoring the SAT, ACT, GMAT, LSAT, and a full range of academic subjects from the middle school level to the post-graduate level. I've been tutoring individual students since I was in high school, and have learned how to teach very effectively while being kind, friendly, and fun to learn with. Over the past few decades I've become an expert teacher of everything from math to writing to science. I have an undergraduate degree in Math from Yale, a law degree from Columbia Law School, and a masters in international economics and finance from the Fletcher School at Tufts. My standardized test scores include a 1580 on the SAT, 178 on the LSAT, and 780 on the GMAT, as well as numerous 800s on SAT subject tests and 5s on AP tests.
