I'm an
Individual
I am an experienced ACT and SAT exam prep, critical writing, and study skills instructor. I have served as an education director and created successful SAT and ACT exam prep programs from the ground up. Additionally, I have personally tutored students for years, helping each to increase their study skills and test taking strategies along with their actual test scores. I graduated with highest honors from UCSB, am a historical research writer, and place focus on fostering critical thinking, critical reading, and critical writing skills. As such, I work equally well with high level students, students with focus issues or learning disabilities, and those with every learning style in between. No matter the starting place, every student can build effective learning techniques and academic skills! Overall, my style of instruction is very responsive to the learning style of my student. My lessons are intensive and full of depth, and my students always end their sessions with a “brainfull” (as one of my students put it). My sessions, for all of their intensity, are also quite fun and even entertaining at times. Lessons are learned, hard work is done, and skills are nurtured, and in what seems like no time the session is over. I keep a good pace and avoid meaningless busy work to help those with focus issues stay on track, and keep those at the highest levels from becoming bored. I tend to build strong relationships with my students and their parents. I have been NCLB Certified, recently LiveScan(ned), and can either provide In-home tutoring with an adult present, or meet at the local library study rooms. Ideally, I like to start with a phone conference to discuss your student’s needs. Once we have a chance to talk we can then decide the best time to schedule a first session! I believe in maintaining strong communication with my students and their parents so that a coordinated effort can always be made to put the student’s interests first, monitor progress, and ensure the greatest degree of support and success. Please feel free to contact me to set up an initial call!
