Effective Ph.D. Tutor of Mathematics and Physics
I prepare my students for ISEE by working problems from ISEE prep books together with them, focusing on those subjects with which the student has the greatest difficulty. For example, one of my current lower level ISEE students needs much remedial work in arithmetic, but is already very good at reading comprehension. For both vocabulary and for mathematics preparation, I find that flash cards are a very useful tool for my students. I have over 30 years of experience as a tutor and lecturer in mathematics and physics, both before and after I completed my physics & biology BA at UC Berkeley and [more]
Berkeley Graduate, Experienced Tutor Will Help You Succeed
The math portion of the ISEE tests students' knowledge of general mathematical concepts and basic problem-solving skills related to algebra and geometry. I have the most current practice tests and years of experience tutoring all levels of math. I am also very familiar with its content and structure which consists of two different sections: quantitative reasoning and mathematics achievement. I'd love to go through practice tests and share test-taking strategies with students to help them achieve high scores. [more]
Harvard doctoral, 20 yrs. teaching, specializing in writing, SAT/ACT
I have taught at three independent schools over two decades and am well aware of what the ISEE exam covers. I taught 6-8th most often, and worked with younger students as well in two schools that were K-8. I take pride in building a child's confidence by showing that each math and reading problem can be solved with a combination of intuitive observation and deliberate problem-solving. Hi, I truly love working with middle and high school kids. I?m a high-energy tutor who combines great humor with intense focus. I do a lot of test prep tutoring and can teach to the test, and yet I consider every [more]

I have worked with multiple families to prepare their children for ISEE and SSAT. I have also tutored many students to prepare them for ACT and SAT. Besides reviewing the material, I teach specific test taking strategies on how to get the correct answer even if you don't know it. Hello, my name is Ed and I am a math tutor.

In my spare time, I worked with elementary through high school students coaching FIRST Robotics in m [more]
Experienced, fully licensed teacher
I have had the pleasure of working with a tutor from California who tutors almost exclusively for the ISEE. I have created a multitude of resources for her and have found that the ISEE is very similar to the state standardized tests that I have taught for 15 years. I have a 90% pass rate on the Virginia SOLs, which are among the highest in difficulty in the country. While the ISEE is tested differently, I have studied in depth their guidelines, expectations, and requirements for doing well in all subjects. In short, I have a master's degree in education, I've taught and tutored for 15 y [more]

I have tutored students for ISEE prep for the past five years. I have tutored extensively Lower, Middle, and Upper levels. I have successfully tutored 14 students in ISEE who were then accepted to their first choice independent school. I have 7+ years of experience teaching in public, charter, and independent schools in Texas. I have taught 5-8 middle school science, and have a Texas Teaching Certificate in EC-4 Generalist and Science 4-8. I have privately tutored for the last five years including math, science, and ISEE prep. These are the subjects I have tutored Math: Middle School Math G [more]
Writing Teacher, Linguist, and History of World Thought
I have four valid California Single-Subject Credentials in English, history, French and Latin, as well as the Multiple-Subject Credential for elementary school. I have just retired as a 22-year veteran in middle school and high school. I have served on Writing Testing committees within my school district, both scoring tests and writing prompts for testing. I have administered Princeton-based tests in my younger days through UCLA. With the 2010-2011 school year, Mr. P celebrated his twentieth year as a teacher with the Alameda Unified School District and twenty-two years in the profession, h [more]
Math, science, and test prep tutor fresh out of Stanford
ISEE prep, more than any other test prep, must be adapted to the age and aptitude of the students. I have worked with one student, a 4th grader, on ISEE prep, but I believe that my experience doing ACT and SAT prep would be more applicable to an older student. Striving for an top-notch test score, or mastering math and physics classes, can be daunting and frustrating. Sometimes a teacher doesn?t explain the material well, or abstract concepts don?t quite click. That?s why I bring patience and a positive attitude to my tutoring. I use a technique of offering multiple explanations for each conce [more]
Tutor specializing in Special Needs & Learning Disabilities
I have been tutoring students for the ISEE for 4 years now and all of my students have seen impressive improvements. Statistically, most students will consistently test within a standard deviation of their previous testing results. To the best of my knowledge, all my students who did ISEE prep with me increased their scores by 2 standard deviations or more. I studied Psychology at Colorado State University and University of Washington, where I focused on learning and memory, even doing research on testing efficacy. I utilize my knowledge of testing paradigms to train my students on test-tak [more]
Academic Tutor Extraordinaire
ISEE is similar to the HSPT, but not exactly the same. Many students take both tests because they are applying to both private and Catholic high schools. I have experience tutoring this test and can help you do your very best. My goal is to teach my students *how* to learn so they no longer need to rely on me. In addition to three Clear California Teaching Credentials (Math, English, and Multiple Subject), I have many years of experience as a teacher. My primary love is language, but I consider that to include math. As Mrs. B., my high school algebra teacher said, "Math is the universal lang [more]
