Tapping is a 30-second process you should do anytime you feel like you’re carrying more stress than is good for you.

Can you think of any stress you might even be carrying now - some worry, or fear, or overwhelm - that you’d like to get rid of? We’ll do it now! Tapping WORKS!

We see it all the time in test taking, and it can be so frustrating: why would we change the answer if we actually knew it?!

Today I have shocking ACT Science results that a student of mine has gotten recently – and she’s gotten them by doing something very counterintuitive.

Since 53 colleges have gone “test-optional” during the quarantine, parents are asking if (and students are insisting!) the tests no longer matter.

I cringe a little when a parent tells me their teen has chosen to take the SAT instead of the ACT.

Clients tell me that their kids’ schools have told them to hold off on SAT and ACT prep until the Spring of junior year, and I think this is bad advice.

Students empower and disempower themselves at every turn in test prep, and the degree to which they do so determines their score in the end.

There’s a major reason why your SAT or ACT tutoring might not be working.

How do we react to expectations, both those of ourselves and those of others?

Why do we love our favorite movies?

Why do we play the same song on repeat, over and over?

Because they make us feel something.

I teach my students not to judge themselves by their results, but by two questions instead.

Many of my students are in this stage: they have been studying for the SAT or ACT for months and are surprised at how much work they are doing. Meanwhile, their scores have barely budged.

I spent four days last week at Jen Zoe’s Zenergen Stables in Orlando, a world of green, fresh-air, horses, and constant chatter about personality types, love, life, and childhood.

As I have started to hire and train tutors, whom to hire has become the question to tackle.

My students’ ACT Scores have risen 8.2 points on average so far this year – equivalent to about 300 points on the 1600-scale SAT.

April’s ACT Writing Scores are out today, three and a half weeks after the test.

Josh Waitzkin has been blowing my mind lately.

A former child chess prodigy, Waitzkin was the real-life inspiration for the movie Searching for Bobby Fisher.

I took the ACT yesterday, filing into a nervous classroom in South Brooklyn filled with kids half my age.

I have heard of several strategies to approach a Reading Passage.

My most exciting breakthrough in tutoring lately has been teaching my students “Growth” versus “Judger” Mindsets.

I have been amazed at how much this has resonated with students.

A couple weeks ago I realized that I was reading ACT Science questions differently than most of my students.

My students tended to read the entire question at once…
