Private tutor in Sacramento, CA

Experience
I've taught test prep for ten years to students of all learning styles, with particular experience working with English Language Learners. I enjoy guiding students through tricky Critical Reading passages as well as the hardest math problems. I've worked privately and for many of the major test prep companies. An hour studying with me is friendly and collaborative, with a goal of both learning new material and also feeling calmer. My goal is for you to feel more confident by the end of the session :)

Hobbies
In addition to teaching and working on my academic research, I enjoy exploring new neighborhoods and solving Rubik's cubes. I've taught a range of ages, including piano and math to six year olds and tutoring test prep for adult learners. I've decided to restrict this profile to test prep, but I can tutor all high school subjects, and many of the AP tests and SAT Subject Tests. I've also worked as a college counselor and essay editor for undergraduate and graduate applicants (both PhD and professional schools). If you're interested in any of these services as well, just ask!
