I am a Test preparation Coach for the ACT and the SAT. My Tutoring approach consists of 2 key components: Instilling Self-belief in each student and Teaching test preparation strategies that work best with the natural learning style of each student. A majority of my students increase their scores substantially, and several are currently enrolled at the best schools in the nation. I have testimonials from some of these students that I can forward to you via e-mail. I firmly believe that no hurdle is insurmountable and often, it is simply a different approach that does the trick.

My tutoring approach begins with identifying the strengths/weaknesses of each student and their learning style. Based on this information, I create a study plan that is geared specifically to each student, and one that will yield a target score within the required time-frame.

My tutoring sessions incorporate the following key elements -

1) A clear understanding of the concepts in each subject area of Math e.g.Trigonometry, Exponents, Algebra, etc.
2) Solving a diverse range of problems from each subject area. Most Math problems can be solved in 2-3 ways - I teach the fastest and most efficient method to solve each Math problem.
3) Time-management - Time is of the essence on the ACT, therefore, I teach the students important time-saving tricks such as short-cuts, eliminating answers, educated guesses (only when necessary), etc, and how to use these tricks prudently and efficiently.
4) A heavy emphasis on Grammar, Sentence structure and punctuation for the English section e.g. the various uses of commas, subject-verb agreement, etc.
5)Identifying the best strategy for the Reading and Science sections (ACT)- factors such as Reading Speed, natural areas of strength, etc, help me make this decision.
6) Practice tests on paper and online - Taking practice tests regularly gives the student a feel for the actual test and helps me monitor his/her progress.

Prior to contacting me, many of my students had attended a course offered by one of the major test-prep companies. These programs have some advantages, but they lack a critical element of Test preparation: the 1-on-1/2-on-1 setting that I offer. As mentioned above, such a setting helps me identify each student's style of learning, strengths, and weaknesses. Additionally, the small setting enables my students to ask questions without any inhibitions, unlike a class of 6 or 7.

If you'd like further information, please email me, or you can call me at Either way, I wish you the best on this important journey !

Thanks,
Chin
