"I realize this may sound weird considering how stressful it is for most people, but the college admissions process was some of the best fun I had in my life. I loved every aspect of it, from pulling all nighters for my Honors/AP classes to stacking my schedule with enrichment activities to grinding out those seeming endless essays.

"I realize this may sound weird considering how stressful it is for most people, but the college admissions process was some of the best fun I had in my life. I loved every aspect of it, from pulling all nighters for my Honors/AP classes to stacking my schedule with enrichment activities to grinding out those seeming endless essays. It was the ultimate game for me, with such a tangible and exciting reward: admission. It was especially gratifying when my hard work paid off and the acceptance letters and scholarship offers came flowing in. I want you to experience this feeling too!
I believe that there is no such thing as a smart person or a dumb person. I think there are only motivated people and unmotivated people. With the proper motivation, anyone can master any subject very quickly. I have been told that my energy is "infectious" and that I am a "master motivator." I believe this to be the case as well. If you give me a chance, you will not be disappointed.
The first time I took the SAT, I bombed the math section with a score of 530. Then I studied for forty hours, took it again and scored a 640. Then I studied for over 100 hours, took it again, and scored a 760 (only missed two questions). The moral of the story is: if you want to improve your math score, you need to study. If you're cool with that, I can certainly help you study!
I help a lot of foreign high school students applying to colleges in the U.S. with their English skills, especially speaking and writing. I am a Cambridge-Certified (CELTA) English teacher and have taught students from over 20 different countries. My best qualification though is that I aced the SAT Critical Reading (800/800).
From the very first session, I will make you feel smart and confident in your abilities. You will leave each session with both a stronger grasp of the content and a better outlook on learning itself!" less...
