Experience
My specialties are test preparation (PSAT, SAT, ACT, GRE, LSAT, Praxis etc.) and mathematics tutoring which I offer face-to-face or online. I achieved perfect scores on verbal and mathematics sections of tests such as the GRE and SAT. This means you can expect the highest level of instruction in each category from just one tutor. Many of my students have achieved perfect scores themselves. On short notice, I can identify which areas of concentration promote the largest points gain, or, given enough time, I can help the student post dramatic results. Confidence is paramount in test-taking and so I endeavour to make my sessions stress-free and enjoyable. I am also very excited about tutoring the beautiful subject of mathematics. You can count on me to find alternatives routes among equivalent approaches and help the student make connections with previous material. A recent review: "Brilliant & accommodating tutor...Andrew's lessons are carefully tailored to meet my needs but they also challenge me to raise my own standards and potential for a better score...carefully analyzing my strengths and weaknesses as well as demonstrating many alternative routes for arriving at correct answers. He is exceptionally resourceful and responsive & has a professional, friendly manner. I highly recommend him as a teacher."
