Hello Dear Potential Student,
I've never liked the process of trying to sell myself, so I prefer to simply tell you the facts. I am a Stanford University graduate (2004) with a BS and MS degrees in computer science, as well as a minor in Fiction Writing. I am currently an MFA candidate in creative writing at The New School.
I have several years of experience as a teaching assistant (at Stanford) and a tutor. I have tutored kids through the America Reads/Writes program in math, English, and in preparing for the SAT. I have also done private tutoring, primarily for the SAT II Writing test. I have myself received a score of 800 on half a dozen different standardized tests, a 1590 on the SAT, a 5 on eight AP exams, and a 171 on the LSAT.
I know what it takes to do well on standardized tests and how to help others improve their scores. I know myself to be patient, friendly, understanding, and committed to helping those with whom I work. No matter what your experience with standardized tests has been, there are easy ways to make you do better, which I would be happy to share with you.
Let me know if you might like to work with me.
best regards,
Ilya
