Having come from Germany at the age of eleven, I know the frustration that can come with feeling overwhelmed by coursework. I performed well on standardized exams like the SHSAT and the SAT and can teach test-taking skills that will ultimately lead students to institutions like Stuyvesant H.S. and Columbia.... Patience is key. On the first few tries it's normal to get a question wrong, or to take a long time. Repetition and endurance will get you to a point where it'll come fast and easy.
