"I am currently residing in Rye Brook, New York and looking for in person or remote students. I am eager to return to tutoring the SAT/ACT as it has become an expertise of mine in the last few years. I have tutored or instructed around 1400 total hours between 3 companies and some private clients. I have taught numerous SAT Prep classes including a Digital SAT class; however, most of these hours are 1 on 1 tutoring. I specialize in Mathematics, but I have over 1200 hours teaching all sections of these standardized tests. I have taught over 100 students and average around a 5 point increase in ACT scores and 150 points in SAT scores for these students. I have experience tutoring the digital SAT and created curriculum for both the new English section and Math section.
At Temple University, I graduated with a Professional Science Masters with the focus Educational Psychology. There were numerous courses that adapted how I approach teaching: Motivation in Education, Development and Learning Over the Lifespan, and Tests and Measurements. I am constantly reading research on education and how it is applicable to standardized tests. Vygotsky’s theory of the Zone of Proximal Development is a favorite of mine and can be applied to how tutors can greatly affect students’ testing and ability to consume knowledge. I have an ardent stance on learning and teaching, and I am always looking to grow. I also try to implement Dweck’s Growth Mindset Theory not only in my personal life but in my student’s academic endeavors as well. I took Calculus 3 and a Calculus applied Economics class in Undergraduate for electives, and I also did my Undergraduate Senior Marketing Analytics Capstone Project on the company Mathnasium. Education has always been a passion of mine, and the passion for it is deeply rooted in who I am as a person." less...
