SAT Tutor with 10 years of experience works with students in Tallahassee
Methodology
My goal is to help students figure out how to feel confident when they get to the SAT. With emphasis on practice tests, I help students collect experience working with College Board practice tests. I focus on areas from these tests where students can learn, and emphasize test-taking strategies as well.
Background
I'm a grad student at Florida State working on my PhD. I've been working with students on SAT preparation for almost ten years, at a variety of skill levels. Over the last three years, which included a full-time high school SAT course, my students have averaged 140-point score improvements.
