Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I think the essential element I have is great listening skills. Teaching isn't only about sharing my knowledge, but paying attention to how the student is learning and how he or she is interpreting how I'm communicating the information. That gives me the opportunity to tailor how I'm teaching to the student's needs and leads to results every time. It's always rewarding to get a text from a student a few weeks after we've finished working together updating me on how their score improved (every student I've ever taught has improved his or her score). I also enjoy the strategy involved in upping a student's score. I love to figure out the key that's going to unlock knowledge for the student. Most students know more than they think they do, and once that moment hits where the student truly realizes that, is when he or she soars.

Working with Jeff was an incredible experience for two reasons. First, we'd worked with another tutor prior to Jeff, and the difference was plain as day. Jeff was prepared, kept track of test scores and was able to show week by week the progress being made. Aside from that, he didn't only do problems in the SAT book, but he made a list of everything my daughter needed to work on, and they worked on different worksheets together so that she could brush up on those skills. My daughter absolutely loved working with Jeff, and was ecstatic when she saw that her score had raised from an 1860 to a 2150 after working with him. Thank you so much Jeff and best of luck and success!

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I retake the SAT/ACT every year to ensure my excellent scores stay current and that I am familiar with the ever-changing formats of the test.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Ask for specific stories from the tutor's experience. While the tutor tells the story, gauge their level of interest, how he approached problem-solving, and how the results were achieved.
