Professional Multi-Discipline Teacher with Public and Private School Experience.

I have tutored the full gamut of students, from the best and brightest to one with special needs, over a wide array of subjects; including all three parts of SAT preparation (Critical Reading, Writing and Math) to individual academic disciplines - Social Studies, English, and Math.

Professional Multi-Discipline Teacher with Public and Private School Experience.

I have tutored the full gamut of students, from the best and brightest to one with special needs, over a wide array of subjects; including all three parts of SAT preparation (Critical Reading, Writing and Math) to individual academic disciplines - Social Studies, English, and Math. I have documented success with aiding high school students in their pursuit of gaining selective and non-selective school admissions including University of Pennsylvania, Brown University, Lehigh University, Penn State University, University of Delaware and Rutgers University. I believe that no two students are created equal, that all have their own strength and weaknesses that can be tweaked to bring out the best in their academic abilities.
