I am a former secondary and elementary English teacher as well as a current Standardized Test Prep Tutor. Although I specialize in the Critical Reading and Writing Sections of the SAT because two plus two is always four, the rules of English grammar are just not as cut and dried (that's an idiom you should know!) The Critical Reading and Writing sections of the SAT are more difficult than the math sections. I cut through the flotsam to identify the areas tested, and provide you with the skills you need to get your highest score on the SAT -and higher grades in English overall. I am an Ivy League-educated writing tutor, SAT tutor, editor and former teacher with extensive, creative, and flexible teaching methods to help you master the SAT, the ACT, TOEFL, GMAT, SSAT or English and grammar. I conduct personalized test prep, based on YOUR diagnostic exam. Together, we work through hundreds of sample questions AND answers. Essay topics? I've got hundreds, as well as a technique for virtually writing your essay before you even enter the test site!
Outside of test prep, I work with you to develop test taking skills, reading skills, English, study skills, organization skills, leadership skills, in other words, the skills you need to excel in school and in business.
I worked at the executive level, serving for a time as the learning director, in a Fortune 50 company prior to leaving to establish my own educational consulting business. Yes, I'm passionate about education, and about success.
