Tests:
ACT, PSAT, SAT, SSAT Subjects: Literature, French, History, Art History

Philosophy:
I believe standardized tests need to be seen as opportunities for success, not as daunting tasks. Because the tests are consistent by nature, with proper preparation students should walk into the exam room knowing what to expect from each section, and feeling confident that they have developed strategies to thrive in that setting. In addition to working on the content components and test taking strategies, which can be universally applied, students should recognize their personal test taking habits and thereby develop an individualized game plan. Proper preparation is the most important step for students in reaching their fullest capabilities.
