Profile Details

Experience Summary

I provide personalized test prep and teach a totally unique and comprehensive system of strategies, skills and steps for problem-solving. I help you switch your mindset from traditional to standardized tests using multiple approaches based on inside information (I've earned multiple perfect scores on the ACT and SAT, consulted for test publishers and written/edited test questions) and experience (20+ years serving diverse student populations of all ages and abilities.) My students/clients have earned over $88.5 million in scholarships and have improved as much as 480 points on the SAT and 12 points on the ACT in a fraction of the time typically required. It takes 8 hours to cover strategies for both tests and an average of 4-10 hours for focused feedback based on an error analysis of practice tests. Furthermore, I can guide you in all aspects of college admissions: matching, applications, essays, scholarships, portfolios, resumes and interviewing skills.

Other Comments

I believe that everyone can learn to succeed on their own terms. My goal for each client is to become a strong, independent, and confident learner capable of performing well in any school or job setting. I have helped many "A" students who used to do poorly on standardized tests, as well as those students who just don't fit into the traditional school mold. I also specialize in overcoming attention and anxiety issues.
