Rebecca S.
Private tutor in Boston, MA
Education
Boston University, majoring in English and Psychology and minoring in French. Cumulative GPA : 3.5
Experience
SAT: Critical Reading - 770; Writing - 760; Math - 630 SAT Subject Tests: Literature - 790; U.S. History - 760 AP TESTS (AP Scholar with Honor): English Literature and Composition - 4; English Language and Composition - 5; U.S. History - 5; Psychology - 4 I have worked with an SAT preparation program called Let's Get Ready for 2.5 years, which includes preparing a class of 8 students for the SAT, in addition to helping them with the college application process (including writing the college admission essay). I know that the SAT can be boring, so I incorporate activities and work with interesting subjects to make the subject come alive. I received scores in the 99th percentile when I took the SATs. Additionally, I took 6 AP classes in high school, and feel qualified to tutor the English, U.S. History, American Government, and Psychology tests. I also enjoy working with younger students. I worked as an intern at an after-school program in Paris, France, where I helped teach English and other subjects to elementary, middle, and high school students. One of my favorite pastimes is editing papers for friends. I love helping people formulate their ideas in a clear and cohesive manner.

Hobbies
I love going on adventures and trying new things, as well as staying in with a book. I am laid-back, and find it easy to form bonds with people that I tutor. My long term goal, besides being on Jeopardy, is to work in the non-profit sector to reform education policy.
