My comments on tutoring SAT - Verbal : Reading and Writing section. Implementing study skills and test taking skills as well as time management skills. Teaching of forming a thought or argument and putting it into a proper form and structure for essay part.
My teaching style is eclectic. My background as a yoga instructor and massage therapist inform my teaching style in that I teach the student as a whole rather than teaching a subject to a student. I like to use current outside sources whether they be from science or art so that learning stays relevant to today.
