SAT - Verbal is one of my top subjects! I have a 2400 on the SAT, including an 800 on Writing and an 800 on Critical Reading

Are you struggling with the ACT or SAT, or are you looking for a bit of a boost on your scores to gain an edge with college admissions? In that case, I believe I can help you out: I'm Katarina, a high school senior who scored both a 36 on my ACT and 2400 on my SAT in 2014. Only a handful of students in the entire nation accomplish a perfect score on both tests each year, but practicing specific strategies and keeping in mind certain tips can dramatically improve performance. As a student who recently took these tests, I understand the typical problems high school students encounter on these tests and how to resolve them. Scoring highly on the ACT or SAT doesn't reflect inherent intelligence or makes one a child prodigy: it simply demonstrates how good one is at taking the ACT and SAT, and I believe anyone can do well with the correct approach.
I can focus on teaching the material ( ... read more

I enjoy teaching, and particularly teaching children and young adults. I am a patient, considerate teacher, and I am willing to review the materials as often as necessary to help the student succeed. I had the benefit of a nurturing tutor in high school, and her example has helped shape my world-view. I believe that remaining task-oriented and receptive to the needs of the individual are key to helping the student learn. No two students learn in the same manner, at least in my experience. The ability to recognize that and then to adapt is paramount.
As a graduate of Duke University, I hold myself to the highest standards. I have spent the last ten years as a manager, and as such I have led numerous training courses for both hourly and exempt associates. In the community, I have taught pro bono ESL classes to a predominantly Hispanic community. During the course of my undergra ... read more

I am a results-driven educator with 20+ years of training, facilitating, designing creative presentations, and creating innovative learning experiences for all types of learners. My goal is to teach a concept and then bridge the gap between this concept and its application to real-life experiences! I can help the learner understand how individual concepts fit into the "big picture." Although my specialties are Math and computer applications, I have both taught and tutored all subjects including the Sciences and English. I have taught and tutored K - 12; and I have taught career college. I can definitely make the connection between current learning and future goals!

Any opportunity to help someone else is one I enjoy participating in. As I mentioned, I am going into nursing and wish to work in pediatrics. I have been tutoring children/adolescents for years and can truly say that it has been a rewarding experience. Relating or connecting with a student have never been an issue with me. I am familiar with the various learning styles/techniques and do my best to incorporate them in my instruction. My aim is not only for my student's grades to improve but also for him/her to master the material. Therefore, I constantly review and reinforce previous lessons. My ultimate reward is for a student to become independent in a subject matter and even be proficient enough to teach or assist someone else.
Education has played an important role in my life and success since my elementary school years, and I feel its value is immeasurable. In 2007, I e ... read more

Teaching, in my opinion, is a matter of patience. Each child can learn a skill, though the amount of time it takes to learn that skill may vary from child to child. Some children simply need a few more extra hours per week to pick up the essential skills they will need to be successful in life. Education is so very, very important. My belief is that each child can succeed in life if they are taught that school and learning are both fun and important. I hope to instill that belief in every child.
I have enjoyed working with children for a long time. In high school, I volunteered at a Summer Reading Academy for elementary school students. I have a bachelor degree from the University of Pennsylvania, majoring in Cognitive Science and minoring in Linguistics and Computer Science. One summer, my internship was working at a Teach For America training campus. I will obtain my master degre ... read more

My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer that anyone can learn, if the time is invested and the learner takes an integrative approach to their studies. I know you understand this too, you understand the value of an added resource alongside more traditional schools.
As a writer and former teacher, I am driven to deliver an integrated learning experience. In my classroom I taught students to use all their skills to remember, learn, and master the subject matter. I've earned a dual degree, BA in Journalism and Spanish, that enable me to teach grammar, literature, and many aspects of language arts from a global first-hand perspective. I have tutored elementary, high school, and adult students, in reading, writing, Spanish, and business Spanish conversation.
