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]
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]
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]
Harvey Mudd Grad Coaches Mindful Learning
I have experience with the ISEE. I know what independent schools are looking for, and am ready to help my students rise to the occasion. Independent schools look for students who can think critically, and who trust their own brains. They're looking for fluency in vocabulary, mathematics, and reading skills. To measure these skills, the ISEE contains four sections: a 20-minute Verbal Reasoning section, a 35-minute Quantitative Reasoning section, a 25-minute Reading Comprehension section, and a 30-minute Mathematics Achievement section. Some basic techniques include: know your roots and pre [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]
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]
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]
Effective Math Tutor (Northwestern U Engineering PhD)
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.

During the past six years I have tutored for Wyzant, and several other tutoring services. Currently I teach high school English, History, and Psychology at Cambrian Internat [more]
Ivy League Grad with a Masters in Ed and Four Wheel Drive
I have worked with a number of students on their ISEE exams. Not only have they performed well, but I have watched them go on to succeed at a number of fantastic schools. I am well-versed in the format as well as a number of test-taking strategies that will provide a bump in their scores. Tutoring is something I fell into in high school, and I haven?t stopped since. I started out by helping friends and other classmates; however, in college, it became my unofficial part-time job - one that paid in fantastically edible, non-cafeteria meals. By the time I was in grad school, it evolved into a [more]
