Sleep, Social Life, School Work: Why pick two of the three?
More is required of today's students than ever, but doing your best shouldn't make you sacrifice the things you enjoy. Working with a tutor maximizes your studying power and helps you prepare for what lies ahead.
I won't waste your time. A lot of test books and classes play to the middle, giving students materials either too remedial or too advanced for their level. My materials match your level, not the level of the student sitting next to you.
I work with students on minimizing stress, both in the classroom and at home. I can help you develop strategies for balancing a busy life while also accomplishing your academic goals. I can also serve as a helpful buffer between parents and students, keeping them up to date on your progress without prying.
Whether you're worried about tests or school, It's time to lay the groundwork for your future success. Schedule an appointment today and start working toward your goals.
What students say
“One the main stressors of applying to college is assuming that you’re not good enough – that you aren’t qualified to go to your dream school because of a simple number. From the moment I started working with Tom, I immediately felt good about myself and gained confidence in not only my test-taking skills, but in my abilities as a student in general. Tom was especially good at praising my strengths, but even better at working to improve my weaknesses.
In addition to his constant support and feeling of devotion to improve my skills, Tom was very flexible and worked around my schedule. He incorporated my everyday activities (i.e. volleyball) into math problems, which made me feel both comfortable and engaged in the material... I have always enjoyed math, and after scoring on the lower side on my first SAT test, I was discouraged. Tom not only taught me how to improve my math skills, but he taught me how to take the math test.”
