I'm a professional tutor with 7 years of tutoring experience. I specialize in SAT and ACT prep and college admission consulting.

I will help your student raise their scores, perfect their essays, and win entry to the colleges they deserve.

What I offer students:

SAT/ACT Tutoring:
– 16+ Practice Tests
– 1000+ Practice Problems
– Proven Score-Raising Strategies
– Tips and Tricks you won't find online

College Admission Consulting:
– Expert Essay Planning & Editing
– Extracurricular strategies to help you stand out
– Intelligent college list advising
– Confidence and security in navigating the admissions process

Students who work with me will make fast and consistent progress toward their goals. For SAT/ACT tutoring, I quickly identify student's weak points, improve their study skills, and help them break the glass ceiling that's keeping them from the college of their dreams.

I teach techniques to increase test-taking speed, reduce errors, and improve performance. I help students quickly grasp low and high-level concepts and how to check their work effectively. Ultimately, I seek to elevate a student's own standards of success—then exceed them.

For the college application essay, I teach high-level critical thinking and how to craft confident prose. I will work with students to help them think through and workshop their essays so they are an authentic representation of the achievements and qualities which test scores and GPA don't represent.

Investing in a student’s academic performance, critical thinking, and internal drive will pay dividends for decades to come. A sharp and agile mind is the foundation for modern-day success.
