Hi there! My name is Oliver, and I am a test prep tutor for the SAT and ACT. I have developed a passion for tutoring students such as yourself and helping them achieve their goals on these standardized tests.

Through rules and exam content practice, I aim to improve comfort on exams that can otherwise be uncomfortable. The SAT and ACT don’t resemble anything students see in school, so familiarity is very important. Once you become familiar with what to expect, the exam can become a lot easier. The concepts are all covered in normal high school classes, only presented differently. There is, of course, also an element of refreshing topics that have not been taught for several years (at this stage in your academic careers). Geometry, for example, is several years old at this point.

Having gotten a 1520 on the SAT myself, I'm comfortable tutoring all sections and have reached a strong expertise on these exams over the last several years. While attending the University of Miami, I started tutoring one-on-one, and I’m now coming up on 7 years of experience. My students have averaged about 200 point and 7 point increases on the SAT and ACT, respectively. In my time tutoring one-on-one, I worked with a couple companies and was exposed to different teaching methods before finding the right balance of content and application. It was all in a very similar setting, so I feel very comfortable in the one-on-one mode. I am now tutoring on my own and would love to help you in your academic goals. I find it very rewarding to see students achieve their goals and attend their top colleges of choice. I’ve had students attend the University of Miami, UNC, Georgia Tech, Georgetown, UF, FSU, and Boston College, among others. I hope you’ll trust me with your test prep journey. Thank you!

Career Development

Career Development

As someone who has worked with tens of high school and college students either submitting college applications or job applications, I have a lot of experience with resume building. My resume, in fact, was given a perfect score in my business development class at the University of Miami. It's only gotten better since, and I've helped many students improve theirs as well. In this subject category, I've seen many looking for resume help, and I'd love to work with them!
College Counseling

College Counseling

In my experience with SAT and ACT, I've also helped tens of high school students with their college applications. The two go hand-in-hand, as both strong scores and applications lead to college acceptances. As I mention in my profile, my students have gone to some of the most prestigious colleges with the help of my college counseling services over the last 7 years. I would love to work with students on Wyzant to help them do the same!
Poker

Poker

I've been playing poker for 6 years now and am a profitable player in the time I've played. I saw a listing for poker lessons and would definitely be interested in teaching, as I have experience in teaching poker in the past. There was a game at my office, and I ran the beginner lessons leading up to the game a few weeks later. All my coworkers felt comfortable enough to play in just those few weeks of learning the game with me!
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I've always been naturally comfortable with public speaking. I'm a very extroverted person, so it's easy for me to put myself out there. I definitely have a lot of tips that can be useful for a student who might be uncomfortable with the skill. I've also given tens of speeches due to the nature of my college major, entrepreneurship. It required several presentations to panels of investors and potential business partners. I feel I have a lot to provide when it comes to public speaking and would love to be able to help others with it!
