Mark Y.
Private tutor in Annandale, VA
Education
I am a graduate of Case Western Reserve University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology, and minors in Chemistry and Psychology. My experience in tutoring ranges primarily from mathematics and biology to test prep (SAT). As someone who has taken the OLSAT and SAT, among other standardized exams and placed very well, I've found that strategy has a substantial influence on test outcomes: a student's approach to the question and their assumption of what the examiner is seeking as the answer. That philosophy is one I try to incorporate into anything I teach, as it improves a rather universal skill.
Experience
- Previously worked as an independent tutor, as well as working for Varsity Tutors in Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2, and AP Biology - SAT: 1540/1600. Including Writing SAT2: 2310/2400 - Excellent reading and writing skills.
