Experience
Are you struggling with the ACT or SAT, or are you looking for a bit of a boost on your scores to gain an edge with college admissions? In that case, I believe I can help you out: I'm Katarina, a high school senior who scored both a 36 on my ACT and 2400 on my SAT in 2014. Only a handful of students in the entire nation accomplish a perfect score on both tests each year, but practicing specific strategies and keeping in mind certain tips can dramatically improve performance. As a student who recently took these tests, I understand the typical problems high school students encounter on these tests and how to resolve them. Scoring highly on the ACT or SAT doesn't reflect inherent intelligence or makes one a child prodigy: it simply demonstrates how good one is at taking the ACT and SAT, and I believe anyone can do well with the correct approach. Proof of scores can be provided upon request. A complimentary "tips" packet will be provided with the first tutoring session. I can also provide advice on how the two tests compare and which one you or your child should take- contrary to popular belief, the ACT and SAT are not equivalent at all, and each suits different types of students better. I have practice tests and prep books that you and I can use, but I can also work with books that you bring yourself if you prefer them. I have experience with volunteer ACT tutoring at my school through the 30 and Above Club, of which I am Vice President. I have experienced success in helping my classmates with problems they encounter, and hope to continue doing so with students from outside my school!
