TEACHING EXPERIENCE

For over seven years I taught for The Princeton Review, the nation's foremost test preparation company. At The Princeton Review, I taught students how to prepare for and take the SAT, the undergraduate college admissions test. I also taught graduate admissions tests such as the GMAT, for admission into MBA programs; the LSAT, for admission into law schools; and the MCAT, for admissions into medical school. At Independence High School, in addition to my duties as a classroom teacher, I have given numerous seminars to students and staff on test preparation techniques. 2002-2003 will be my fourth wonderful year at Independence High School as a teacher of English 1/9 and English 4. I've also been honored with the task of teaching the senior English 4 Teaching Academy class as well as the Teaching Academy Practicum.
