30 years of experience supporting kids and families through personalized one-on-one attention and small classes that foster learning in and out of school. Specializing in SAT/ACT preparation- balancing focused problem-solving strategies, content knowledge, motivation and accountability, while attending to the anxiety that many students bring to the college application process. Maximize your score and your opportunities for college success. Most math tutors focus strictly on the numbers, I attend to much more -family dynamics, emotional stress and/or learning differences, can also interfere with success in math. I help students recognize how internal habits can get in the way of understanding concepts. We also tackle the day-to-day realities of school, from disorganized notebooks and cramming for tests to social distractions and technology. Through mindful attention to the whole picture, we craft strategies that result in more confidence, better understanding, and more time for fun!
