Catherine S.
Private tutor in Chicago, IL
Education
I recently returned to the Midwest after completing my master's in acting at London’s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. I attended Indiana University, as a member of the prestigious Herman B Wells Scholars Program. I joined the Phi Beta Kappa Society, and I graduated summa cum laude with degrees in Classical Studies: Latin and Greek and Theatre & Drama, and with a minor in Art History.
Experience
I am a conscientious, engaged tutor, with five years' experience coaching students in SAT and ACT preparation. Based on student feedback, I am one the highest ranked tutors with a national agency. I've also worked as a preferred tutor at a Cincinnati high school that consistently ranks in U.S. News' and Newsweek's lists of top 100 high schools in the nation. In high school, I was awarded a National Merit Scholarship for excellence on the PSAT. I also scored in the 99th percentile on both the SAT and ACT. On my first (and only) SAT attempt, I scored 2280 composite. On my first (and only) ACT attempt, I scored 33 composite. I wish I had then the knowledge of both tests that I have now!

Hobbies
In addition to my professional interests in acting and teaching, I love to work out my mind and body. I run, bike, read, sing, and play the violin. Currently, I am learning Spanish. My strengths as a tutor are my personable style and my individualized review methods. I believe in strong communication with students and parents, and I offer written feedback after every tutoring session. If you are looking for a collaborative experience, a competitive rate, and demonstrated results, then I look forward to being your ally in ACT and/or SAT preparation.
