Hobbies
My service puts the emphasis on building rapport and confidence, teaching concepts, and a personalized experience that students actually look forward to. I specialize in Mathematics (including SAT prep) and make sure students know how and why the processes work. I don’t want them to just know how to get the answer. I want them to really understand the concept so they are capable of reasoning through the problem and solving it independently.
