💯 SAT / ACT with Top American University Graduate

📕 I have consulted students internationally on how to systematically improve their SAT and ACT scores. Overnight success is a myth, and entrance to a top university does not come as a miracle, but through hard work, determination, and knowing the nuances of the admissions process.

📗 SAT and ACT preparation often begins several years before submitting university applications. It is never too early to start gathering resources and learning tips and tricks for maximizing your chances at admission to the university of your dreams.

📘 As your counselor, I am well-equipped to advise you on test preparation at any point during your journey towards university. You may also request consultation on university applications, including personal essay tips and a timeline tailored to your academic and extracurricular activities and goals. Together, we can determine which path is best for you.

Excellent session with VIctoria
🦠 Learn science with a Medical Researcher! I have performed research encompassing a variety of Biology disciplines and I am equipped to teach general biology for students. The key to scientific learning is consistency. I offer regular lessons that facilitate habits of discipline and intellectual curiosity. We may delve into peripheral topics as well, such as the ethics behind experimentation. In addition to general topics, my knowledge is current on the following exams: 🧪 AP Biology 🌱 AP Environmental Science 🧠 AP Psychology
➕ A strong foundation in Mathematics is essential for developing a critical mind. The value of Mathematics lies not only in its elegance for scientific research and technological developments, but Mathematics also demands a spotlight in unsophisticated, mundane life chores such as splitting the dinner bill, lending to a friend, or checking and double-checking that the government hasn't overtaxed you. ➖ My main academic training is in Mathematics; I received my Bachelors in Applied Mathematics from the University of California San Diego in 2016, and my Masters in Mathematical Engineering from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya in 2017. Since completing my coursework, I have worked in university research and I am now pursuing a PhD in Tactile Neurophysiology at the University of Gothenburg. ✖️ I have 10+ years of experience in Mathematics tutoring ranging from primary school to university level subjects. I am comfortable with developing a curriculum tailored to your needs or following one that you or your course proposes. In the past, I have assisted students of all levels in: Calculus, SAT Prep, Algebra, Arithmetic, Statistics, MATLAB, and Trigonometry. These topics are not exclusive to my repertoire. ➗ I hold firmly that a student must bring motivation and that a teacher foster this with direction, challenges, and encouragement. The process of learning is a two-way street. Ultimately, your goal is to be an independent learner, and I will help you to become one.
🛑 Stop looking for homework answers online. Learn from a Mathematician with 10+ years of teaching experience! I will teach you how to read, understand, and solve Calculus problems effectively. We will master the fundamentals and learn how they may be applied. We will review variations of questions that may be asked of you, and we will also evaluate the importance and implications of the solutions. 💡 See how Calculus is done from a Mathematician. I have been there, done that. Made mistakes. Went about learning Calculus the long, hard, windy way. For the last decade, I have determined where students tend to get snagged and developed explanations that are appropriate to the level of the learner. I am interested in seeing you stand on your own, and I want you to develop your confidence in solving problems in Calculus and beyond.

German lessons in language & culture with a native speaker, learn online and with joy, exam preparation
As a German teacher with many years of experience, I teach both beginners and advanced learners, and accompany students from different countries in literature, history, reading comprehension and language skills. In my Language and Culture course, I combine learning a foreign language with getting to know German traditions, holidays, history and society, because all of this is part of learning German. I really enjoy observing the progress of my students and I have accompanied many of them on their journey for many months or even years, which creates a close and trusting relationship between students and teachers and allows them to learn with joy in a relaxed atmosphere! Feel free to stop by!

Leila Shamira
SAT, SAT Math 1, SAT Math 2, GMAT, GRE, GRE Math 1 and 2
Dear students and parents, I am an enthusiastic and hard-working multilingual (English, Russian, Turkish, Azerbaijani) Math and Statistics educator and Data Analyst with 12 years of teaching and 16 years of research experience in an international environment. Focused on an outcome-based approach to progress and deadline-oriented. I usually hear from parents, that I make their kids love math, and it makes me the happiest teacher. First, as a Math Teacher, my main aim is to encourage students to analyze the problem carefully and find different solutions for one question. This method helps students to choose the easiest way of solution for her/him during the exam and finish it in time. I teach students both ways how to solve questions without a calculator with math tricks, and how to use a calculator more effectively. As you know in the exam there might be non-calculator and calculator papers. Moreover, this ability helps students not only to understand the math subject deeply but also will be very helpful during their adult life. Having teaching experience (Math and Statistics) in one of the top universities in the US (UW-Madison) helped me see the path of a student from the school bench to the university auditorium. Only by working in both school and university, you can understand what is better to learn for a student to be helpful in the future university years and how to show the connection between the math SAT and math at the university level. Years of hands-on work experience and a keen interest in Math teaching as a profession (in both school and university), as a deep understanding of the connection between school and university Math have prepared me well to see the strengths and weaknesses of the student and how to use that strong side of a student to improve the gaps that student earned in her/his earlier years. Therefore, I believe that all these experiences will help me smoothly raise the level of my students and succeed in their future lives. Sincerely, Leila

SAT preparation - online and in presence classes !
I have worked for 5 years now with kids from international schools, helping them with the preparation of tests such as the SAT and ACT. I believe that the key for a successful preparation of a challenging test such as the SAT is exercise, in fact I believe that is crucial to start the preparation with an adequate advance to gain confidence with the standard exercises we can find in the exam. My lessons are based on mock exercises: we go through them together seeing what are the student's gaps and then reviewing the theory of those gaps. I also believe that my method I successful since I can relate to the fear and anxiety a student preparing such a stressful exam is living, having prepared it not so long ago.

French, English, Wolof, and Turkish Tutoring lessons
Online Lessons: In today's digital age, online lessons have become a convenient and flexible way to acquire new skills or knowledge. Whether it's language learning, academic tutoring, or professional development, online platforms offer a virtual space where learners can connect with educators from around the world. The advantages include accessibility, flexibility of scheduling, and the ability to access resources from the comfort of one's home. However, success in online learning often requires self-discipline and effective time management. In-Person Lessons: Traditional in-person lessons provide a face-to-face learning experience that has stood the test of time. From classrooms to workshops, in-person lessons offer a direct and personal interaction between the learner and the instructor. This method fosters a sense of community, allows for immediate feedback, and promotes a structured learning environment. In-person lessons are ideal for hands-on activities, group discussions, and activities that benefit from real-time collaboration. However, they may be less flexible in terms of scheduling and may require physical presence. Both online and in-person lessons have their merits, and the choice often depends on individual preferences, learning styles, and the nature of the subject being taught.
