Test Preparation Methodology a) A student will complete several manageable assignments throughout the week. b) During our tutoring session, we will identify specific errors and deficiencies. c) For each area of weakness, I will cover all facets of the topic to identify the root cause of the issue. d) We will develop a customized strategy turn problematic areas into strong foundations. e) Students will apply material covered to similar problems and scenarios. f) I will suggest practice test sections that will focus on subject matter needing reinforcement through targeted self-study. Typical score increases range from 3-8 points on the ACT. Some of my elite scholars have earned perfect scores on one or more of sub-sections.

Badri Narayanan R.
University of Pittsburgh
SAT/ACT Tutor
After studying for the SAT for years (since the 8th grade), I have an extremely comprehensive experience with the exam and its questions. In my first attempt, I was able to score a 1460 and on the second, I raised that to a 1540 (99th percentile). After this, I felt very confident in my ability to share my knowledge and experiences in mastering the SAT. So, I decided to start tutoring my friends and other students at my local library. I directly worked with 3-4 students at a time and provided them with very useful tips and tricks to rapidly improve their math scores on the SAT. After seeing the improved results of the students I tutored, I became very passionate about tutoring SAT Test prep. In my tutoring lessons, I will start off by understanding students' baseline scores, their goals, and the areas that they wish to improve. During tutoring, I will explain online by going through official SAT Test Prep lesson plans and then go on to explicitly teach them the concepts necessary to answer questions on all sections of the SAT. Focusing on weaknesses and motivating students to continue practicing problems consistently is my specialty and it has gone to improve their SAT scores significantly. I will also provide several resources to find SAT test problems online and practice with real tests as well.

Devin R.
New College of Florida
Trouble with Algebra or Precalculus? I succeeded in math, and you will too!
I’m Devin, and I’m here to boost your math scores! Inspired by the machinations of mad scientists in science fiction films and video games, I realized early on as a kid that I wanted to study science and math. A homeschooled child, I quickly took the reins to learn on my own and attended high school online through Florida virtual school. I self-studied for the PSAT exam, through which I won a National Merit Scholarship. A number of AP exams later, I attended New College of Florida, the honors college of Florida, where I worked as a teaching assistant for Genetics and General Chemistry. After earning my bachelor’s degree in biochemistry, I dove back into test prep. With a strong GRE score, I was accepted to the Computational Biology PhD program at the University of California Berkeley. There, I quickly realized that a life in the lab wasn’t for me. Instead, I decided to use my talent in the test center and the classroom to help others achieve their own academic success. As a homeschooler in college, I quickly realized how the typical classroom experience can fail students. I struggled to grasp new concepts through my instructors’ lectures. As they spoke on and on in front of the class, I would often have to give up on understanding what they were talking about. It was only after a lot of homework and one-on-one meetings with my instructors that I was able to succeed in those classes. That experience informs my approach to tutoring. I’m not going to talk at you while trudging through a presentation. We’re going to work problems together. I’m here to support and guide you, not lecture you. When you run into trouble, I’m going to pinpoint your difficulty and show you how to overcome it. We’ll keep going until you can solve these problems on your own. If you need more practice after a session, I’ll direct you to plenty of extra problems to polish your skills. You’re going to have the confidence to handle whatever a class throws at you next. Let’s get started!

Ivy League Educated Tutor in Writing, English, French, and SAT/ACT
Hi! My name is Ben and I believe that you're deserving of a higher grade and a better score. You just need the key to unlock that potential. I am a PhD student at Stanford University with 10 years of tutoring experience. From my time at Columbia University, where I graduated summa cum laude in English and Comparative Literature, I have been helping students improve their writing abilities, hone their language skills in English and French, and ace their SATs and ACTs with high scores. I tailor my teaching style to my students' needs, focusing on using their strengths to bolster their weaknesses. Writing well or scoring highly on a standardized test are as much a matter of tactics and strategy as they are a matter of gathering knowledge.
