If you know the concepts, the test results follow, but test taking strategies are also emphasized. I specialize in college level courses but am willing to tutor the highly motivated college-bound high sch... Read more

I try to build a rapport starting with where they are and I use understanding, patience and humor to gain their trust. My unique executive and academic background help ... Read more
