ACT test prep work in Mason is not anything I naturally thought I 'd be doing when I grew up. Though someone or some test may have informed me I might be a instructor some day , I actually found school quite boring as well as intimidating and couldn't wait to get out. Little did I comprehend that about 20 years later I would have a great deal of education and a bunch of skills to help students dominate with new skills.
Returning to Cincinnati after being a extremely successful private tutor in South Florida , I slowly improved my tutoring circuit to now have had about 800 students total. I believe the secret is having a system. Since students more easily lose focus today than in yesteryear , they often lose track of what they are really looking for, make careless mistakes, or don't break problems down properly. All this is completely avoidable.
Sure, there are challenging questions on standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, but one can still miss one or more questions and still get a perfect score. I tell my students that if we can learn the techniques that have helped my students into the 99th percentile, then we can worry about the last 1 %. Critical thinking is huge.
I share here a bit about how this happened and how I believe I can help student get ready for their exams, whether we at the 5 percentile mark or the 95 percentile mark, if we collaborate.
