  • I teach students how to learn. This includes note-taking, organization, study techniques based on content and learning profile, memorization strategies, testing strategies, and productivity / focus tips.

  • I know the SAT and ACT front and back, inside and out.

    Whether you are new to testing or just need a review, I’ll teach you key content and test strategies to increase your scores and your confidence.

    I offer private, one-on-one test preparation for the VERBAL / ESSAY portions of the following standardized tests:

    • SAT

    • SAT II (Literature)

    • ACT (verbal, essay, science)

    • GRE (Verbal Reasoning + Analytical Writing)

  • For 18 years I have helped hundreds of students find and craft their application essays.

    All application essays: Common App, supplemental, school-specific, all grade levels (high school, college, graduate school).

    I also help families and students understand and fill out the Common App, which can be overwhelming.

  • I offer skill- and content-based writing instruction for students in grades 5 and above. I teach writing techniques for personal narratives, analytical essays, literary analysis, synthesis essays, op-eds, poetry, creative writing, descriptive essays, expository essays, persuasive essays, application essays and more.
