John Cochener, Academic Tutor

Working one-on-one with students in the San Francisco Bay Area for over five years

Standardized Test Tutoring

I offer individual tutoring to high school and advanced middle school students preparing for standardized tests such as the SAT, PSAT, ACT, AP, SSAT, HSPT, and other exams considered by admissions at top universities and high schools.

My lessons are individually tailored, based on each student's abilities and attitude. Unlike other services that use the same book for every student, I use a variety of books from different publishers. I can match each student with a book that will build on his or her strengths.  Combining well-matched texts with my own general stategies and time-tested techniques, I prepare students both academically and psychologically for these keystone exams.

Subject and Content Tutoring

In addition to standardized and placement test preparation, I also work with students to improve grades and prepare for tests in academic content areas.

I have worked with students to improve scores in math, chemistry, physics, history (US and European), psychology, sociology, and music ethnography.
