A New York native and Cornell chemistry graduate, I've been tutoring privately since 2002. My main areas of focus are the SAT, ACT, ISEE, and SSAT, but I tutor other exams and subjects as well, including the GMAT and GRE as well as chemistry and math.
Regardless of the particular test of subject, my tutoring is always practical-minded and results-focused, with the constant goal of building test-taking skills, getting more questions right, and raising students' scores. I myself scored in the top 2% nationwide on my SATs, and I've achieved even better results with my students.
While I pride myself on my personal academic excellence and my long track record in teaching, I believe that what makes me stand out as a tutor is my personable nature and my ability to relate to students of all ages, backgrounds, and ability levels. I can confidently state that I've *NEVER* had a student who couldn't relate to me in my 20+ years of tutoring -- and this includes students with learning disabilities like ADD and auditory processing disorder.
I take great pride in all the flattering feedback I've received from my students and their parents over the years. I've had parents tell me things like, "My son learns so well from you" while their children tell me things like "My mom loves you". I feel that this personal connection I forge with my students and their families sets me apart from other tutors more than any other quality or ability I possess.
